the last 3 1/2 months...

i've been pretty bad at keeping up with my blog, but here's a quick recap!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hunter's first trip to the pumpkin patch was so exciting, he passed out as soon as we got there! he wouldn't wake up no matter what we did, so here are the pics!


And here he is 5 minutes after we got back to Grandpop & Nanny's

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Halloween was fun (and tiring too!) Our little stinker went trick-or-treating with Gigi and Uncle Alex! He got to see Aunt Stacy too as a little treat!!!





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hunter turned 5 months old in November!


He also tried rice cereal for the first time! He "got" eating very quickly (no surprise there!) and really enjoyed his first solid food!

He also started to hold his bottle too!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
December was a very busy and eventful month!

On December 9, 2007, Hunter was baptized at Saint Anthony's of Padua in Hightstown.



Hunter's godparents are Eric Larson and Jessica Reed!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hunter turned 6 months old also! We can't believe what a big boy he is now and how much time has flown!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hunter enjoyed his first Christmas! He got lots of toys & goodies from everyone! (I still don't have any clue as to where we're going to put everything!


He got to meet Santa:
Our first family Christmas card:
He had his first Christmas portraits done at Picture People (and we couldn't be happier with them!)

We spent Hunter's first Christmas Eve with Grandpop & Nanny at Michelle & Phil's house. Hunter got to open his first present:
and taste his first piece of wrapping paper
and ribbon
with Grandpop and Nanny

The Salaga Family:
Aunt CeeCee, Mommy, Grandpop, Hunter, Daddy, Uncle Jim, Great Grandmom, Uncle Matt, Nanny and Uncle Jon!

Grandpop's little guy!

Christmas Morning was so much fun!

and his Leap Frog Learn & Groove Music Table

Grandpop & Nanny got him a Radio Flyer wagon and a rocking horse!

Then we went to Gigi's for more (and i mean, MORE) presents!

Then, we went to dinner at Aunt Debbie & Uncle Frank's house!

Hunter also started sitting up on his own!

His favorite new toy is the Fisher Price Sing-Along Superstar Stage - thanks Gigi!
