Cousin Katie, you rock!

Sittie, Louis, Sittie Corey, Mom.

Louis was happy and smiley for most of his baptism. Although he did cry at the appropriate times--

Nice dress.

The finger paint jar said "washability you can trust"-- and we trusted. Other than a few spots between his toes, and the ceiling, most of it came off. Hope y'all like it, it's his first foray into the "digital" arts.

Happy Birthday Mom! 

This a pic I snapped at 3 am last night. Louis is making the transition to sleeping in his crib at night and we are all a little apprehensive. So I made Jason sleep in the nursery with Louis and make sure he continued to breathe and all that important stuff. Great job Dad! Jason can sleep anywhere and I think he rather enjoyed it. No dogs bugging him and no me yelling at him to quit snoring so I can get some %$#^ sleep! Jason's placement on the floor also prevented me from going in and checking the baby every 15 minutes. I finally got to sleep soon after this shot was taken and it was the best 3 hours and 20 minutes of my life! 

This is as close as you're gonna get to a pic of Louis rolling over. He very much enjoys some naked time and took the oppurtunity to roll over 5 times. Too bad Daddy wasn't here to see it. Apparently he's shy. Notice that socks on naked baby boys is cute. Not so much on the older ones......... 

Here's Louis making his first college trip to Duke University in Durham, NC. He's real excited about it, as you can see. It was hot as %$%& and he was over the whole college experience at this point. He really wanted to go back to the Duke gardens and watch the co-eds sunning themselves by the pond. Or maybe that was Jason.... 

This is Louis in his crib. He doesn't spend alot of time here but that's about to change! He usually sleeps in his bassinet at night and naps in his swing. He's rapidly outgrowing his bassinet and it's time to trade up. We are transitioning him to his crib and making him nap there. He's not too happy about it but we are wearing him down. Ya like his crib bumpers? Mom made them! 

Grandma and some other baby










Grandma and Louis

Ok, so he's really not walking. But he sure does like to stand up tall.

Happy 5 months, Louis!

Guess who rolled over today for the first time? Yep, Big Louie is on a roll!
We were at baby yoga class and we put the babies on their tummies. I turned around to get on my tummy too and Louis had rolled over by the time I got settled. I thought it was a fluke so I put him back on his tummy and over he went AGAIN! And then AGAIN! I don't think I would have believed it if he hadn't done it again! Next week, he'll be driving...... 

Happy April Fools Day! Fool!
