My Little Helper

I had a photo shoot with a baby girl just two weeks younger than Hayes.  While I was getting set up, I tested out a few props with my little guy.  He was a big goober!

And here is one of baby girl, Paisley, in the same box.

So cute!

Here are a few things we've been doing this past week.

Santa brought us some play-doh!  It kept them busy for a good hour.

 Working outside with daddy...fixing our flower beds that settled with the last rain.

We put him in his saucer for the first time, and he's not quite ready for it yet.

But someone else was thought it was pretty cool.

This little boy spends most of his awake time seeing how many fingers he can fit in his mouth.

"Peace, mama."

Baby Hayes

I've fallen behind on the ol blog.  Guess that's what having three kids does to you?  

Not sure if I'll try to catch up completely, but it'd be sad to not be able to compare Halloween, and Thanksgiving, etc. with last year, so we'll see what I can manage to get done.

For now, I wanted to post a few of my favorites of baby Hayes from the past few months.  He is 4 months old already!

Here he is this morning.  Trying out the high chair for the first time!

One Month

Time is really flying with this baby boy....sigh.

A Family of Five

This baby boy makes our family a family of five.
It's a little surreal.
He is such a sweetheart.
I forgot how much I love cuddling with a newborn.

Hayes Joseph was born September 13. He weighed 7 pounds 10 ounces and was 21 inches long.  

Is it possible that I maybe jinxed myself into having three boys by naming this blog "Me & My Boys"?  ;)

First Day

August 24th was Bo's first day of preschool.  On that particular day we had to wake him up. Thank goodness he woke happy and excited about going to school. This could've gone either way - the day before he had told me he didn't like his teacher and didn't want to go to school. So with about 10 minutes to dress, eat breakfast, and get some before school pictures, things went pretty darn well.  Whew!

 There are 25 kids in his class!!

He goes Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 8:30 to 11:00 and has done really well ever since.  (And his mama is loving it too!!)

Two

We celebrated Cruz's 2nd birthday this last weekend.  He was SO excited about his jungle animal themed party.  For several days before the party, every time he'd wake up he'd say, "Animal party?"  So cute!
