Very Advanced

Simon and Alan were reading the paper over breakfast this weekend. Simon was looking at the used car section. He is so advanced for his age...

Standing on his own

Guess who can stand on his own? Alan!
Someone else too...

Sleeping: Butt in the air

I love Simon's "normal" sleeping pose: with his butt in the air and his arms tucked to his side. You know he is really tired when you are holding him and he puts his head against your chest and his arms by his sides and shuts his eyes - it is always really quick but so completely adorable and snuggly. He also always scoots to the top of the crib, which is also the side closest to the door. He will often wake up with bar marks on his little head or cheeks because he is so tight against the bars. It doesn't matter how low we start him at night or if we move him when he is sleeping, he just inchworms his way to the top of the crib against the bars. And he somehow usually ends up on top of his blankets.

9 Months

I took about 50 pictures this morning trying to get a good one to show off his Nine Months. 90% of the pictures are blurry, the rest you see below. He is super fast and when you call his name he crawls to you to take the phone/camera... (looks so tasty!) As a result, pictures of him not latched into a chair/stroller have become more difficult and less in focus.

Hot, Sunny, Beautiful Day

It is lovely here. 76 degrees right now, easily 80s in the sun and not a cloud in the sky. We sat in the backyard and had lunch. Simon had yogurt and greenbeans. Yum.

PS Sadly Jenn caught Simon's sickness and so stayed home today. So just me and baby.

80° in March!!

We had to fish out this outfit from the 'summer time' bin :) sooo cute!

Simon's sick week.

These are photos from last week and this week. At the park from yesterday , playing with Emily's knitted fish, sick cuddles, and the last is from this morning gently playing with my hair Haha. Sorry they are all sideways, my phone isn't the smartest.
