What a Week (Part 1)

We just returned from a wild and crazy week that included more than 24 hours in the car and stops in 4 states. This post covers the first part of the trip...there are more to come.

The weekend started with a Friday-night, slumber party at our house with Everett. Mary and Randy were vacationing in sunny Mexico, so Everett stayed with us Friday night while Grandma and Grandpa Hauner stayed with him the rest of the weekend.

The weather was nice, so we took the opportunity to let the boys burn off some steam outside.

Gym Time

Guy understands the importance of regular exercise.  He therefore puts in plenty of time each day in his baby gym.  In the morning he does five reps of the "fist bump".

Later in the afternoon (after a bath and a clothing change) he does five reps of "grab the toy".  It's an exhausting workout, but it will make him big and strong one day!

I promised a smiling baby photo but...

My friend Terri from my knitting group made this beautiful sweater for Guy.  It's gorgeous, so you'd think that Guy would be smiling in the photo.  You can blame my styling - at 7 weeks Guy already knows that a lovely hand-made sweater should not be modelled over pjs.  But he still looks cute, right?  

Places you probably shouldn't put your baby...

Okay, so maybe you shouldn't put your baby in a trash can...but if they're similar size and the baby looks sooooo cute in the trash can, can you really resist?  Me neither.  Besides, Guy doesn't seem to mind.

Guy's started to smile now, so I hope to have a photo of that soon - it's adorable!
