Happy 6 and 7 weeks Gerrit!

Our sweet boy is becoming more and more fun. Lots of smiles every day and he loves to talk to let us know if he's happy or not. If he needs to see me, he makes just a little fuss to get my attention. He only uses his real, big cry if he's hungry or needs his diaper changed. He is such a great baby. Avery is proving to be a wonderful big sister too. She loves to help when she's in the mood. We're still in that transition phase where she acts out to get our attention, but we're hoping that it will get better soon. When she's happy she loves to sing (Taylor Swift is her favorite right now). She remembers the words to some songs better than I can! She is using her imagination more and more, and today was a kitty cat who wanted to be petted on her belly. The photos are in somewhat of an order from most recent back.


Look who's 7 weeks old!

First bath time together!
Gerrit wasn't so sure about it. He does love bath time though!

Sweet sleepy boy.
(He sleeps so much more than Avery did at this point. Such a blessing.)

One of her belated Christmas gifts from Gramma Beth.... Chocolate anyone?

Gramma's reading her a book.

Taking it all in

First bottle at home from dad.

One of his newborn photos. He decided to stay awake for most of 2 sessions, so we didn't get many of the traditional newborn shots, but I love this one.



Snow angel!
