What the heck is a cowlick anyway?

Mommy took this picture of me right after I woke up from my nap. She said that I had a cute cowlick, but I have no idea what that means. Why is my hair standing up anyway?

We had a garage sale yesterday to "lighten up our load". I was such a good boy; I just hung out with Aunty Rose and took naps when I felt sleepy. There were so many people coming by, and mommy kept whispering to me, "gas money, gas money!!!" I guess they're going to use the money to pay for gas as we drive across the country next month. That mommy, she is so silly.
Even Kona was a good boy; he hung out in the garage and mostly watched as people walked around our driveway. There was a dog named Roxy that was hanging around too, but eventually her owners came by looking for her. I would be so sad if our Kona was missing. Who would I chase around the living room?

Oh yeah, before I forget, I ate meat for the first time this week! The doctor told mommy to try it and she did. I loved the vegetable beef! Yummm! I also had my 6 month check-up a month late. I weighed in at 19.9 lbs and am 28" long. The doctor said that I looked perfect and that I was advanced for my age as far as crawling and standing goes. I also got four shots; I didn't cry until the 3rd and 4th ones went in. But I didn't cry for long. I also sucked down the rotavirus elixir, yummm. I used to kick and scream when they gave it to me, but now I am a big boy and can take my medicine when I need to.

Lately, I have been pointing at everything with my right hand. Grandma Candy thinks I am right handed, but mommy's not so sure yet. Well, it's time for a nap, so I better get going.

One more thing: I am going to Hawaii at the end of the month and I am so excited! I am going to see my family and meet my Great Grandparents for the first time! I can't wait to swim at the beach too! Mommy and Grandma C already bought me a couple of swim trunks!

Until next time,
Baby Brandon
