William Holds Rattle!

William learned how to hold a rattle today. By the time Mike got home, he'd tired himself out learning such things! It's a rough life all this rattle holding!

Not All Pictures are Flattering

This is what happens when Mike is in charge of the camera and not Shannon. Sometimes Will makes faces at him.

William and His Dad

William in a Sweater and A Really Cool Fire.

Mom and Dad made a cool fire tonight to cook their steaks on. How spiffy is this? Also, it was cold enough for me to wear a sweater. Check out how cool I am!

In Steph Schiffer's Outfit!

How nautical and cute am I? Pretty stinking I think! :)

Camping

You wouldn't know it to look at him, but Will is camping here. Well, he's visiting the Graves' campsite in San Elijo. They had a tent trailer. Stinking cool.

Cathy cut Joyce and Stephie's hair and we had an excellent time hanging out and eating hot dogs. Will loved his Grandma K(notts) being with him - partially because he's what is known as an attention hound. He's loves the love! :) Note the contented look on his face and the general demeanor of calm and gladness. :)

Will Meets Grandma K(notts)!!

Here Will meets Grandma K(notts) for the first time (as reproduced in pictures - the actual first time was in the car at the airport - very difficult to photograph while driving). Michael says "Grandma Knotts" is his Grandma, so Cathy is now hereby known as "Grandma K(notts)." Don't confuse them please. :)

Will Pretends he's Riding the Pony Express!

Will rode the pony express today. Note who uses the pacifier - not my genius son, for sure!

Sleeping Is The Best

William is cute most of the time - but never more so than when he's sacked out. Here he is so peacefully sleeping. This picture actually is a bit misleading: Will is the NOISIEST sleeper ever! He grunts, talks, blows bubbles, sucks his fingers loudly and in general has made it impossible not to hear him in this townhouse!

Easter at the Graves!

Will, Mike and I got to spend Easter with the Graves and a long lost Russo Cousin - Paolo. We had a great time - and Shannon did a great job entertaining Will!

Bath Time Fun

Okay, so here's the story. Yesterday Will was fussy. So I said "I'll give him a bath, he really likes that," Mike replied "I don't think he'll like that!" And then Will proceeded to humble his mom by screaming his head off when I tried to bathe him.

So fast forward to today. Mike leaves to go shopping, and I decide it's bath time. Will begins to coo, and smile happily. So I took pictures to prove it. Here they are for all the world to see. :)
