Better Late Than Never

So the plan was to post at least once a week, on the day Simon graduated to being another week older. That fell to the wayside, when, from 5-6 weeks old, Mr. Simon decided to nurse non-stop. As a result I had few pictures taken during his 5th week of life, and nothing to post on his 6 week birthday. 

I can say that all that eating was for a good cause though. In the two weeks since his one-month check-up, on his 6-week birthday, Simon had gained another 1 pound 4 ounces, bringing his weight to a whopping 9 lbs 9 ounces. 

For some reason the only pictures we thought of taking on Mother's day
were of the cats doing things they are not allowed to do!

Timmy, using the bag my Mother's day gift came in as a hiding spot.

Kelly uses he play-mat more than Simon! 

Hanging out in he sun

Mom found a consignment store just down the street, so Simon gets to wear
some super-cute styling clothes at less than Walmart prices!

The Tar-Heels hat can only be left at home if the Panther's socks are on...

Our first walk in the neighbourhood in the stroller. Simon LOVES his stroller.
Despite being awake for 2 hours at this point, he refused to fall asleep,
and enjoyed taking in the sights of the neighbourhood.

A very happy boy

The stroller has become a favourite place to sleep, especially at Nana's house.




A rare thing these days, sleeping peacefully

Making friends with Abe

He has definitely started to smile at me. He has started to coo on a regular basis, and has even rolled from his tummy to his back on 3 occasions. I'm still trying to get him to do it on camera, but no luck.

Another precocious roller! We've only seen it twice, but did get a video the second time. Lately she seems to be working on getting the knees under the bum and moving!
