Shared real estate
Waiting at the spray park….which never came on (Hazel took it better than most; there were a lot of crying kids in bathing suits)
Instead we went to the playground. Much better!
Periscope to the trees
Landry is very floppy in the heat
This picture reminded me a bit of this one (in which Hazel is 13 days old, just one day younger than Landry is today)
Tummy time together
First Hazel wanted to read one book over and over. Eventually she wanted to read just one page over and over (It wasn’t the page pictured here but it did have Vikings with burning bottoms)
The spray park was the place to be today! It was hopping
Hazel carefully used tweezers to remove the source of Stuffy’s ailment
There is a new interactive mural on the side of the sheep barn
Watching and listening to sheep and lambs baa
Digging loose some packed soil
Snoozing back at home
Outside some more: this is a twirl squirt
Hazel was pretending to be a teacher and was telling her students what to do
At Hazel’s request
Man of leisure
Sorry folks, too tired for a title tonight
Rainy morning at the Lego store
Saying a quick hello to Grandma Linda
Helping Mommy write thank you notes
Laura stopped by for a snug and stayed for a lively game of ball fight in the yard (sadly no pictures of that)
I might as well just admit up front that I’m mildly obsessed with having both kids in my lap
Who can believe that we might have had to wait this long or longer to meet Landry?
Look! Two kids in one lap! (I’m so glad to have a lap back)
Story time in Hazel’s big girl bed
There are new puzzles at the library (And this was Landry’s first time there!)
Here Hazel was painting/cleaning her lawn mower
Boats and floats at playground playgroup
Outdoor baby (day 9, playground 4)
“Mommy, I’ll watch baby brother” (One of two times Hazel volunteered to do this today. Also she is eating a wedge of lime, a new favorite)
At least one project a day these days
An oft-seen, seldom photographed angle of Landry’s head
And another of the usual angle
Landry’s first restaurant: the diner (He slept right through)
Pointing out letters while waiting for pancakes
Project with Grammy
Caught a newborn smile!
Snuggling goodbye
Mega wrinkles
Sibling hand holding (Hazel was charmed when Landry reached his arm toward her)
Lulled to sleep by the white noise of the kitchen sink
Being pursued
Now the pursuer
Seven days old, third playground
First trip with two kids in the back
Hazel was a great helper at Landry’s first appointment with the pediatrician
Playing with the scale
And the infant scale too
Speaking of scales, Landry now weighs 7 lbs 3 oz
After we got home we got Hazel’s second ever request to hold the baby
Taken yesterday at 5 days old
When we have Landry in the stroller this is how Hazel walks. She gives reports on his well being as we go
New baby = Slurpee season! (Sutton joined us!)
Shaded baby
Wrinkled brow, a Landry signature expression
Applied by the big sister…I guess we can keep him!
Serene with Alayne
