My bald baby

When you were born you were BALD except for a nice chunk of hair on the back of your head like a monk. Your dad used to joke and say "He's a baby from the front and an old man from the back!" But you wore it so well it was cute... becasue it was just perfectly you. And now you've lost a lot of the hair on the back and you're just a bald little guy.

I think it's cute. I like your bald little head. And you know what? I think I'll be a little sad when you start growing a lot of hair, becasue that will mean that you're turning into a big boy... and I like having you as my baby right now.

Little guy, big personality!

I love these pictures of you and Daddy. You're such a handsome and cheerful guy it's hard not to be crazy about you and want to take pictures of you all day long. I wish they weren't so bury, but I'm just glad I captured you two like this today. We sure love you.

Loving your bumbo

You're still pretty tiny, but you're strong enough to be holding yourself up in a Bumbo. So we had a little photo shoot today becasue I loved your Jammies and you were just too cute.

blue eyes

I love your blue eyes... so I had to snap these pictures while you were wearing a bright blue shirt.

Your new trick

I love watching you and Dad play together, and I love seeing little bits of your personality come out! You are so much fun already... you are the best entertainment ever!

I don't want to forget...

I feel like the title of this entry may get used over, and over, and over again... but that's ok. Here is a quick list of some cute and funny things that you do:

- When you smile, you crinkle your nose.

- You love looking at ceiling fans, and sometimes you talk to them.

- Every time I walk past you in your bouncer while trying to clean up our house, you get a huge smile on your face and kick your legs like crazy. You make it impossible for me to get any housework done becasue I don't want to do anything else but cuddle and play with you while you're awake. Thank goodness for naps, or our house would never be clean : )

- The first thing that the doctor said to me after you were born was, "WOAH- look at those feet!". You are wearing size 6-12 month socks and you're not even 3 months. Maybe you'll be a swimmer...

- You love smiling and sometimes I'll catch you smiling at me when I wasn't even looking!

- Sometimes your dad and I will let you cry becasue we want to make sure you remember how. You have NEVER been a crier and will only fuss if you're hungry. But, even your "fussing" is cute. It sounds nothing like a baby crying, it's just like a sad face with some whimpers.

- You used to look at my like it was my fault when you tooted becasue it would startle you.

- You love your pacifier. Sometimes you get so desperate for it that you'll throw your head side to side super fast to try and find it... and I just can't get it in your mouth quick enough.

- I think right now, you want to grow up and be a professional stretcher. You stretch constantly during the day and every time we put you on your changing table. Plus, after getting you out of your car seat I have to hold you up in the air so that you can get ALLLL stretched out. I wish I had a picture of you doing that, it's so funny!

You can blame your Grandma...

This outfit was bought by your Grandma Carol... but I'm totally guilty of encouraging the purchase. How could I pass up a little bear outfit for my little dude? I know the older you get... the less willing you'll be to wear this kind of thing- so I need to seize these moments! Besides, you were thrilled about it. Can't you tell by these pictures how much you loved this outfit? Clearly, you were pretty stoked.
