Exciting times

So we have been pretty busy around here. Finally, after 1 month, 1 week, 1 day, and 23 hours, Cannon's umbilical cord officially fell off (all of it)! So this meant he got a bath and he loved it! The pictures are below. Actually, his first bath he took with me. I had just got out of the pool and I was all wet and he was fussy so I stuck him in with me. The pictures are of his second bath, which he took today. He was so relaxed that he could of been in there for an hour. Blue was the one who was upset. She kept looking into the bathtub and whimpering and looking at me. I guess she was concerned about Cannon's safety.

Last week, from Wednesday until Sunday, we baby-sat for our good friends while they took a trip to NY. They have four kids, ranging from 8th grade to 1st grade. Grand total: two boys, two girls, my newborn, one dog, and a partridge in a pear tree. We had a busy week getting the kids to all their after-school activities, but overall we had a fun time. Here's what are week looked like:


Ryan is definitely the most popular one!


Cannon and I enjoyed the sunshine. I also enjoyed the pool.

Okay, it was a cardinal, not a partridge.

The girls were so excited to have Cannon sleep over and they loved to hold him! In fact, he was like their little doll. Here's what happens when you leave girls with a baby. I have to say that Cannon was a good sport about everything.


Yes, that is Cannon in a doll's bed.


Take note of the pink heart sticker on Cannon's left cheek.


Paige and Cannon.


At least he was enjoying himself!


We also played lots of games.

Here are some cute pictures of Cannon. The rest are posted on his website.


Cannon loves to look at his new toy.


Cannon and Daddy sticking their tongues out at each other. They also have the same hair-do.


Cannon is strong and can hold his head up really well. When you hold him in a sitting position on your lap, he can hold his back and his head completely upright and straight.


This picture is for my mom. She loves Cannon in his white pajamas. Unfortunately, this was the last time he wore them because he has outgrown them. :(

Okay, bath time pictures!


My boy's getting chubs!




Oh, blue!


Cannon's hair goes curly when you get it wet. I couldn't get it all in a picture, but you get the idea. I can't wait until is stays curly!
