Week 24

Our cutie is inching towards the half-year mark. Holy cow! Now I know what people mean when they say that kids grow up right before their eyes and that time flies. So, last week, Hayes found his feet. This week, his mouth has found his feet! He puts them in his mouth while sitting and laying down, on the changing table and in the bathtub---an equal opportunity foot muncher!


Hayes is now sitting up for longer periods of time---up to a minute or so before he weeble-wobbles over. It's easy to forget that he hasn't always done that---that once upon a time, we had to support his head all the time. Here he is after a bath:


Here is Hayes helping Kyle put the weekly picture blocks together, and then him tearing them down...

Hayes in his handmade bib (Kyle's mom, Betty, made this fabulous bib by cross-stitching the likenesses of our three cats across the front--isn't it awesome?):
Big blue eyes again!

Hayes and Kyle (and the ever-present Anya):

Oh Hayes, you and your feet. Too hilarious! Great pics of him sitting up. He looks way too grown up! Hayes, you are one handsome devil. Can't wait to get those two together again.

Oh, Lily has a "Towelie" too. At least that's what we call the exact same cross-stitchable bib my mom made for Lily. When she first put it on it was so big, it looked like she was wearing a towel - but I have to say now it's one of out favorites because it's got great coverage!! Love all the pics of Hayes...he's too cute!
