sleepy times and play times

Hannah has started to join us for some of our story times! Sometimes it's hard for mommy and daddy to juggle, between me squirming, Hannah bobbling and holding the book but somehow daddy still managed to read us Good Night Moon.

Hannah's getting so big, she sits in my old Bumbo and plays with dishtowels and ribbons and toys... she's really starting to figure out how her hands work.

This is one of those rare occasions that daddy let Hannah fall asleep on his lap... daddy's already getting a soft heart for this little girl...

Isn't she starting to look so big and advanced? :-) I'm one proud big brother!

A new dimension

I learned a new dimension to music tonight.... how do they get the music in that little wire? AMAZING!

I just LOVE my music...

Outdoor Adventures

I am an outdoors-man by heart..... when my mommy unleashes me to the great wilderness (our backyard) my soul smiles!



I tried to convince Mommy that it was a good idea to sled,
but... since there was more mucky grass than snow-covered lawn, she convinced me to look for planes and clouds and we even got to see the moon (yeah, I know... pretty cool, since it was daytime still! She said that doesn't happen too often).


Here I found one of the last patches of snow... what will I do when there is no more snow? (mommy has a hunch that I will have no problem running around in the spring with the grass between my toes).

I wanted to model off the sweet hat my Gigi made for me.. she's really crafty! Don't worry Gigi, I'll put it to good use again next year!

Bridger Action

Bridger has been quite the cuddler this past week. I think she feels the seasonal depression we are all feeling with this never-ending winter. She even sticks by my side when I'm in my timeout spot... mommy wasn't sure that fit the discipline she had in mind, but... it was also too sweet to not capture on film. (Mommy's a tough cookie when it comes to rules, but she's also get a soft heart when it comes to her babies).


Hannah even got in on some of the Bridger action... Bridger still isn't real sure what to think of Hannah... I think she's a lot like my Papa Tom, it takes a few months (until they get bigger and a little more predictable) before getting too close :-)

and here's just a couple extra photos of Hannah we took that same day... she turns 4 months this weekend!

Hannah Banana

Today was a great day, just relaxing around home, no obligations.. just hangin' out with mommy, daddy, and Hannah (along with a few other guests that stopped by today).

I am taking after mommy and daddy and have taken it upon myself to be Hannah's personal trainer. Pictured below is us working on her back strength. I don't mean to boast, but she's a pretty strong little cookie!
I can be a pretty good motivator. Usually I take her dolly and rattle it and show her all the crinkling sounds it makes - she really likes that and it usually makes her perk right up.



Mommy and daddy thought she looked photogenic today, so here are a few pictures of her showing of her pretty eyes and great smile.
