cutest.baby.ever.

lately he's been discovering the toys on his chair.  caught him in the act.

we've been practicing big boy sitting lately

this is a "bumbo", which helps with the whole sitting up business.  he gets a few minutes in this once a day and seems to like it now.

Mr. Chubs

today, after our walk.  a bit crabby because I left his hat on.

our current fav position... a la ErinL, aka Baby Whisperer

summertime!

Big boy chair we inherited from Leslie now that Liam is too big for it.  Right now he can only take it for a minute or so before he wants to get out of it.  good practice for sitting up.

this outfit was way too big for him.  but he looked cute in it anyhow.

stretchy little bean.  this is what he does after I take him on a walk in the bjorn.  pretty adorable.
he literally held this pose for about 45 minutes. he's really starting to discover his hands lately.
der.
twinzies.
HIPPY BABY!!! more stretching.  he's really good at that.  thanks for the onesie, Auntie Ann!

It's the Desi Show!

today is Desi's 8 week birthday.  I've been counting weeks for most of the past year and can no longer think in months.  one day I will graduate to months again.

check out this little guy and how big he is now.  11 lbs, 4 oz. at his last Dr.'s visit.  

check out those leggings.  what a bod.

grumpy old man face.  on our way to Alex & Amy's wedding in Oxford.
