I am in absolute awe whenever I watch this little boy discover new things or reach new milestones. He has discovered his hands and sucks on them constantly and uses them to swat at whatever he can reach. He's finally developed a budding interest in toys but he's very particular about which ones. He's started to giggle. He smiles almost every time he makes direct eye contact with anyone. He's eating more and more and growing like a weed. He can almost roll over from his tummy to his back but not quite. He's getting better about sitting up by himself in the bumbo chair but he still doesn't like it very much. He likes to tell stories - he's talking all of the time. He has such a perfect temperament. He doesn't cry very much at all. Happy baby all of the time (except nap time).
The next couple of weeks are going to be so good for our little family. We're gearing up for Michael to go back to school in two weeks. He's really excited. We're both excited to fly down to St. George in a week to visit some old friends and see Michael's older brother get married. But I think we're most excited to have Michael's parents move back up to Washington. We've really missed having them nearby. They'll be moving back right after the wedding.
Now that things are starting to settle down and we're getting the hang of being parents I think I'm ready to start my happiness project back up again. Have some ideas in the works but I won't be implementing them until the beginning of July. Really anxious to get back into it.
In the meantime, please enjoy perusing through the following pictures of my model baby. :)
Michael thinks this is hilarious. . .
And finally, watch this video. It will make your day.
