10 weeks…

He knows how to party…and bring in a new year!  photo 20131231-DSC_9067-Edit.jpg He’s smiling and cooing and making everyone flock to his luscious hair. Everyone has to touch his hair – strangers touch his hair. It’s so fine and rabbit-like that it warrants every dirty hand to touch it!

Cannon met an aunt and uncle as well as some cousins this week – and they adore him. Steve’s sister Julie has a special love for babies and it’s kick to watch her talk to him. She’s so animated and fun and she has gained the title of baby whisperer.

We have family visiting (my nieces wedding is this week) which means we have thrown every schedule and routine out the window so we could enjoy more family time. Cannon’s sleep has been erratic at best and he’s had more than a couple angry moments – he’s really screaming, “will someone please just put me in my bed and let me wake up on my own!?”

Christmas Card 2013…

This years Christmas card is based on Cannon’s weekly photos and to say we had a little fun with the project would be an understatement!

9 weeks…Merry Christmas…

Life is good and we had a fantastic Christmas – and our little man is 9 weeks old.

He played the role of baby Jesus in our family nativity and he nailed it!  photo 20131224-DSC_8710-Edit.jpg He’s still sleeping at night like a champ and struggling to take consistent naps during the day. His hair still hasn’t fallen out and it’s longer than ever. He’s starting to smile and the kids giggle in delight when he smiles at them. He joined us on our anniversary dinner and went to his first restaurant; P.F. Changs. I’m not sure how much he weighs but he’s put on some weight and is quickly growing out of his 0-3 months clothes. He loves to be swaddled (woombie) for bed and sleeps best with a sound machine.

He loves all the attention he’s getting from us and all the family. There’s is always someone who wants a little Cannon snuggle!

7 weeks…

What can we say…sometimes he’s just an angry elf…a south pole elf.
