at 4 months they cooperate

and they do what the shirt says

Finally did it!

We got a decent family photo!

So the key is to let Dylan push the button for the timer -he thinks this is fun and then laughs as he runs to the couch...however he does sometimes knock the camera slightly resulting in a little bit of a crooked picture...

And then we adjust and go crooked the other way

But we got there

Sean is watching Dylan (as always)

But we got it and I am posting every one since it is the first decent family photo in 4 1/2 months!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Just some pics

Just sharing some more from their professional shots

This one is just magic in his eyes

Sean is happy (who needs a neck really?)

Dylan was hanging from a tree branch

Yep, that drool went right on mommy

feeding the koi crushed up goldfish...that has to be wrong on some level

adventures in the excersaucer

4 months is big stuff - besides rice cereal you can also try out the excersaucer. Luckily Sean has a older brother that likes to help him learn how to use these cool new toys.

It's all a little overwhelming at first

It helps when someone shows you the ropes

That makes it much more fun

Verdict is : he likes it. (and yes there is spit up on his pj's - just trying to keep it real, there is ALWAYS spit up on him)

Options

3 pillows, a bed and a sleeping bag and he is out cold on the rug

YUMMY

Sean got the OK to start rice cereal so we broke out the high chair and gave it a go. He wasn't sure what to expect but he was excited about the cool new seat.

He did open up for the spoon

Then my helper wanted to give it a try. He did a pretty good job.

I'm not sure if he likes it or not...

But at least he keeps opening up!

4 months

Here's the monthly review...he is getting really big.
