In the Pool!

William went in the pool for the first time yesterday. He loved the water and was so content the entire time. We can't wait to take him again!

William's 5 months!

William turned five months old! Ben and I both keep saying how much we love this age. He's "talking" so much now, loves playing with us (touching our faces, playing peek-a-boo, imitating sounds), can roll over, can almost sit up on his own, thinks his toes are a new toy that should go in his mouth, and can hold his pacifier and bottle on his own. He loves to just play with the pacifier, and I think that's because he's now officially a thumb sucker. I guess both Ben and I were thumb suckers, so maybe it was just a matter of time. Anyway, here are some pictures from the last few weeks!

Our former exchange student from Paraguay, Pame, came to visit us for a few days. William just loved playing with Pame.

We put William in his high chair for the first time. He didn't eat in there (not yet) - just played - while we ate dinner. He looks like such a big boy - I just had to share.

Auntie Katherine and Ben thought Fridays should be long sock days - a throw back to how my Dad used to wear his socks to baseball practice. We took a photo. I think William looks ready for t-ball practice:)
