Babysitter Bonnie

My family/business partners had a huge project to do at Curves over Thanksgiving weekend, and like always, we are so lucky to have Grandma Bonnie (Gary's mom) to watch the kids. She was kind enough to bring August over to the club for feedings vs. me having to pump bottles during our work.

Here are they are ready to head back home from Curves. Thanks so much Bonnie!

Thanksgiving


Napping with Dad on Thanksgiving

Watching football with the boys

Family photo shoot (which didn't turn out good enough for the Christmas card, so we went a different direction on that)

And playing with Aunt Diana

Making cute faces

This is for "Glamour Shots by Deb"

Bright Eyes

A couple of cute pictures of our bright-eyed baby!

With loving big sister

Working on rolling over ...

On November 20th August rolled over from front to back, and the next day he rolled over from back to front, twice! This would completely unaided and on a flat surface. But he has not repeated the feat since then. So he has rolled over, but I wouldn't say he "is rolling over."

First Halloween

For August's first Halloween we emulated Madelyn's skeleton-costume motif.

He mostly hung out with Daddy and Mommy on the sidewalk while Big Sister trick-or-treated. 

This baby looks nice n' ripe, let's pick him! :)

Crazy Pumpkin Farm

While August mostly slept, Madelyn really enjoyed this amateur amusement park disguised as a harvest festival.

I took August down this long slide in the Ergo carrier (after crawling through some may maze tunnels, it was the only way out!) and it made him cry. :( But he went right back to sleep, thank goodness.

For most of the time, Gary was the "super dad" carrying baby, backpack, and camera while Madelyn and I did most of the activities. (The best value was to get the unlimited access bracelet, so we kinda had to choose one of us to wear it.)

Awake and happy just before it's time to head home!

First Swim

We took August to the YMCA pool to go swimming for the first time!
 

He was pretty calm in the water.
