Daddy, Mommy, and Hayes

8 Months!

It was just in the past few weeks that I realized that my sweet baby boy is not much of a baby anymore.  It is probably because his hair is starting to fill in but he is definitely morphing from a baby to a big boy.  Hayes is such a happy boy.  He doesn't fuss much, but when he doesn't like something ... look out.  A lot like his big sister.  He is getting up on all fours and "rocking" so it is only a matter of time before he crawls.  He wants to crawl.  Bad.  He is a healthy size - this outfit I bought when I was pregnant but didn't realized he would be filling out 12 month clothes at 7 months so we'll only get a few wears out of this one.  Wouldn't trade those chubby thighs for anything though.  He brightens my days in a way I could never imagine.  I love him so!

Couldn't get him to sit still long enough to get a good one this month

This one just makes me smile so I had to share it!

7 Months!

Hayes, you are 7 months old today!  You are rolling all over the place and starting to sit up pretty well.  You are as happy as can be and LOVE your sister.  She can always make you smile just like you make us smile.  We love you buddy!
