When you're smiling...

Mac is really one of the most cheerful people I have met.  Even with a cold, he just grins through the sneezing and sniffles.  It's hard not to smile when he's smiling, and it's really hard not to smile when he's laughing!

We had some fun yesterday morning trying on his new hat. 

And then Katie Ray walked in and caught his eye.  That just makes him light up!

I can't remember what he was laughing about here...
But there is something that he goes crazy for: sometimes when my hands are busy and I need to have a pacifier handy, I'll grasp the edge of his pacifier between my teeth, just to keep it handy and clean (relatively speaking.)  I have been doing this since he was a baby, especially right before rocking him to sleep.  Well, all of a sudden, as of a few weeks ago, he thinks it's absolutely hilarious that I have a pacifier anywhere near my mouth.  As soon as he sees it, he breaks out into a huge grin and starts to chuckle.  

And now, he actually tries to put the pacifier into my mouth, which then makes him laugh out loud!  I think we have a real jokester on our hands!

He is just a sweet boy!

Of note:

The days are flying by and he looks so grown up... 
But look at the dimples on his hand and the little fat roll at the wrist!
And the cheeks speak for themselves. He is so kissable…and will throw his tiny arms around you. And in those increasingly rare moments that he is happy to be sitting still, he is still so very snuggly!!

Tonight while waiting for me to finish running the bath, he managed to pull himself up to stand! We were both surprised! And he was so pleased!!

In his PJs

Another Saturday night...


And still smiling Sunday morning!

See the tooth!?  It's been trying to break through for more than 2 weeks and now it's finally here. The second one is trying to peek through, too!

7am

Weekends are the best. For example, McKillop family hangout in our bed. 

These two are better than Folger's! (Though coffee in bed in the AM is always a great thing!!)

My happy man

Just rolling around...
Smiling at the overhead fan!

And hanging with his new buddy...


And also considering whether he might do "so big"...

I'm on the move!

I started "crawling" about three weeks ago, and I'm getting better and better.

Beware of bears

Another post that didn't post... It may be 75 and sunny now but it really was cold and rainy last when I wrote this post...
They can be dangerously cute.

Happy Birthday to my Namma!

In honor of her birthday I decided to learn how to clap!


My eyes look tired, don't they? I took two 2 hour naps today! My mom had to wake me up from my second nap so I wouldn't snooze the night away. We figured it must be exhaustion from learning to clap and practicing my commando crawling all day. 

And possibly the excitement of Super Bowl Sunday. But probably not that. 
Anyway, I love clapping now!  
Happy birthday, Namma!  ðŸ˜˜
