My Boy


I have been rather absent to the blog world this past week. My spring allergies hit with a vengeance, and my energy didn't really extend beyond caring for baby and husband and keeping up with my house. But this little guy keeps growing and changing, and I have to keep the grandmother contingency satisfied until they can come visit in a couple of weeks.

We took Wes for a walk down in Provo to see if there were any baby ducks yet. Every spring when the baby ducks arrive I have to go down to the duck pond, because baby ducks are pretty much my favorite thing. Other than my family :o). Anyway, Wes loved the walk--he was fascinated by the trees and the light and all the moving things going by. Luckily he was too young to really pay attention to the ducks, who were doing UNSPEAKABLE things. Really. I guess there will be baby ducks in a few weeks. We'll have to go back then.

We took Wes for another walk--no ducks this time--just to the park around the hospital near our house. This time we brought Che for a little fresh air. It was a beautiful sunny day, and both our little ones had a good time . . .

. . . until Wes had had enough, and it was time to go home . . .

We were lucky enough to get a visit from his cousin Brady and Aunt Mandy. These little guys are only five weeks apart (if Wes would have come on time it would have been a week). We are pretty sure these little monkeys are going to have a lot of fun together when they get a little older--let's hope they aren't as rambunctious as their daddies!

Spring really came to town yesterday with 70+ degree weather. So we had to put Wes in his little baseball cap. I think he's pretty cute! (Thanks Aunt Mandi and Aunt Karen!)

And of course I needed to include a picture of my little sleeping angel with his book. Maybe he takes after his mommy? :o)

What a sweetie! Love the book picture - I've fallen asleep with books many times! And love the bunny picture. And what fun to have a cousin the same age!
