Roy’s Favorite Things

Our little guy thinks the most hilarious thing in the world right now is when you fake sneeze. Make a fake “ah-choo!” and he just laughs and laughs. Other favorite things right now: Playing with Dad’s shoes Climbing over Kona (not one of Kona’s favorite things) Bath time Hanging upside down Chasing Dad around the [...]

A Tooth!

Roy is 8 months old this week, and he got his first tooth to celebrate! Here he is wearing Dan’s shirt from when Dan was his age, one of many awesome hand-me-downs from Grandma Nixon.

34 Weeks Old!

The past week has been full of exciting things for Roy. We’ve actually gotten some snow lately, and he loves standing up at the windows, watching the snow fall; Beatrix is usually at his side looking for squirrels. We took him to a restaurant for the first time, and he sat in his high chair [...]

33 Weeks Old!

Hanging out with his best friends (other than mom & dad) – Beatrix and Skully.  

32 Weeks Old!

Roy is 7 1/2 months old now, and is crawling all over the house, quickly and with a mission in mind. Sometimes it is to see dad in the office, or to grab Kona’s tail, or to see mom in the kitchen. Sometimes it is just to check out a pair of mom’s shoes on [...]

31 Weeks Old!

He tags along while Roy crawls around the house, he sits with him in his high chair, and he comes along on car rides. He’s made of some really delicious wood, and doesn’t mind [...]

30 Weeks Old!

Roy turns 7 months old tomorrow. He’ll probably celebrate by crawling all over the house, trying to grab at Beatrix’s paws, climbing up to the step in the kitchen to walk along it a dozen times, reading a couple books with mom, and playing with his toy work bench and elephant ring stacker. He might [...]

29 Weeks Old!

Christmas week was a big week for Roy. He started crawling on Christmas Eve eve (if you wanna see the video, it’s here), and pulled himself up to standing about five minutes after that! Now he is racing all over the house, and trying to stand when he can (usually lasting about 3 seconds). We [...]
