Rainy Day and Rolling over (almost!)

Today was a rainy, cold day! Yuck! We all hung out inside for most of the day. We did venture out for a little while to get some stuff at Lowe's for the basement and seeds for our garden :) John worked on the basement for awhile and William worked on rolling over from his back to his front! We got some video of him working on it - he is getting there. This is the first day we've really seen him actually work on it. A lot of grunting was involved as was kicking of the feet. We're so proud! We are working on uploading video to the internet and sorting through the files - watch for a new VIDEO post soon!

Wheee......

Hah hah....mommy's still in her jammies!


Tee hee! Mommy has no idea how much her arms are going to hurt tomorrow!

11 Weeks Old...Sniff

Today, William is 11 weeks old! Time has gone by pretty fast. We are going to mark the occasion with some pictures to show you exactly how much he has grown. I can hardly believe it! Today we celebrated by going for a long walk outside, out to lunch with my coworkers (they are on spring break), and to an art exhibit with artwork from some of our former students. Then we went out to eat with John (fajitas anyone?) and then to the mall.

Hurray!

Great news! Uncle Mike (McGarry) will be coming home for a visit! He (according to mom) is coming to Rochester on April 29th and staying for 2 weeks! Now we just have to figure out when we will be traveling to meet the final uncle... did I mention we are excited? As soon as we figure out our travel plans, I will post them here and then make reservations at the McGarry Inn or Heidt Hotel.

Friends!

Today William and I were invited to have lunch with some of the women I work with who are on Spring Break. It was fun to see some babies and catch up with my great coworkers and friends. We visited at Stevenia's house before going to eat at the Blue Sky. We had a great time! What I want to know is who decided that it would be 30 degrees during "spring break"? In other news, William has been rolling over a LOT today! We haven't seen this trick very much lately. I think he was inspired by Jacob and Connor in the last week to keep working on his rolling over.

Same :)


Reagan and William - can you tell Reagan was born exactly 2 months before William?

Nothings wrong, just testing you! William and his friend Reagan.

FOUND!

FOUND! One blue sock in the foot of a sleeper! That darn blue sock has been missing since before William was born! Hurray!

Giggles?

Well, the big news here is that we think William is starting to giggle and laugh out loud. He did it once for me yesterday and I was so surprised I started second guessing myself about whether I heard it or not. Today, he did it 3-4 more times - so I'm calling it good enough to be recorded! It is so funny when he gets going. I start laughing, which makes him laugh, which makes me laugh harder, which makes him laugh, which...you get the idea. John got to see/hear it today too which was lots of fun for us.

William got to play more in his exersaucer which he really REALLY loves. It is so fun to watch him play and get so excited. Well, we are off to try and put the little guy down a little earlier tonight. He has been kind of crabby this evening and hasn't napped much today.

until tomorrow,

Feelin' Better

We're much better than yesterday. William slept all night again in his crib and woke up pretty happy. He still was a little fussy and crabby today, but much better than yesterday. We kept up with the Tylenol and just hung around the house. I got more unpacking done and a lot of laundry done - that was a good thing. We also tried out William's exersaucer for the first time. He really liked it, but I was worried about leaving him in it for very long because he isn't quite tall enough...that shouldn't be a problem for very long!

Tummy time and our new talent : drooling!

Holding my keys - where are we going?

Grabbing for the sunshine in the exersaucer

William enjoyed playing in his exersaucer for a few minutes today. He is strong enough, but only his tip toes touch the ground - so he only stayed in it for a few minutes at a time
