Four months

Austin was really sleepy this particular afternoon - he slept for 4 1/2 hours! I kept going in to check on him - and he had 2 fingers in his mouth - comforting himself, staying asleep! I couldn't resist the picture... so peaceful and content. He is such the happy baby.

Playing on the floor - a smile for mommy!

Easter 2009

Austin's First Easter!
Thanks for the amazing cross-stitch picture from Aunt Terry and Cousin Kayla!!

Here are a few photos of Austin in his Easter outfit - sweater and booties knit by Nana Shoener, and the basket/eggs are crocheted by Nana too!
Austin was really interested in the bunny (look at the concentration in those eyes!)...

...trying to get it....

Success!

Three Month Fun

Jean Overalls - they say "Little demolition expert"... he's really looking tall! (a lot of his pants for 3 months are getting too short!)

Austin was playing on the floor and I heard him babbling and playing with his toys, then the next second there was no noise, so I went over to check on him and he was sound asleep - with his hand resting on his toy!!!

"When's the next Eagle's game? I'm ready!"

Austin had his first encounter with stuffed animals this week and loves them! Here are a few pictures of him looking his bunny over, reaching out, pulling it close, and chewing on all the parts!

Look how big in the swing!

Here's Austin and his pal Eddie the Elephant! He had a lot of fun chewing on his ears and playing his musical nose!
