We put Will in his seat for the first time today... he has been trying to sit up constantly, and is holding his head up really well, so we decided to try it. He likes seeing the world from a new viewpoint!
I can't believe how fast the time has gone! Will is growing too quickly, and getting more interactive every day. He has started to laugh whenever we bounce him up and down and smiles a ton! He has slept through the night now for about 3-4 weeks, and we are working on figuring out some type of a routine for the day time. He LOVES trying to sit up, and will try to take your fingers to pull himself up every chance he gets! I return back to work this week, which is going to be an adjustment for everyone... I was telling Mike today that I feel like I am busy already without work! :) Although I'm sure I will have a hard time going back to work, I am so thankful that I have been able to have this time with my little man and have enjoyed being a stay-at-home mom. Here are a few pics from the last few weeks...
Will and I took a vacation with the Hoogstra family in Wildwood Crest, New Jersey. I grew up going down the shore every summer, and was thrilled to spend some time with my extended family and introduce Will to his great grandparents, great aunts and uncles and cousins. We drove through the night there and back with the help of Aunt Jackie, and was able to spend about five days with the whole family. I put Will's feet in the Atlantic Ocean and we hung out on the beach with the family under the canopy. We had a great time in New Jersey, but we were happy to come back home to see Mike! Here are a few pics from vacation...
