Solo is the star

Don't let him fool you, he wasn't so happy when I watched him while Brittany helped with the wedding! (Hence my photo with him)

Lots of driving!

We went to Colorado for dad's 50th birthday this weekend. It was fun. The driving wasn't even that bad except for the drive from Kansas City to Hannibal.
The drive home on Sunday was the longest time Brittany and I have been on the road. Solomon did pretty well. He slept quite a bit and only got really fussy a couple times.
We're going up to Minnesota next weekend. It should be a breeze compared to the drive to Florissant!
Here are a few pictures from Saturday. Dad's Royals shirt was from us.

Summer begins!

I can't believe its already June! Solomon will be 2 months old soon! After the summer flies by he'll be 4 months! Maybe I'm not so anxious for him to be old enough to play catch...

Here are a few pictures from the past few days.

go Royals! (i have no idea how they're doing, but i'm guessing it's nothing to get excited about)


Sleepin' on the boppie. This thing used to dwarf him!



He loves his great-grama!

The Payoff

I've told several people now that it feels like having a kid is starting to have some good returns. It makes my day when I get a smile from him before I leave for work!. He's actually started smiling sooner than I figured. Hopefully he won't be long for doing stuff like laughing, cooing, and playing Frisbee!

Tired

Does he look tired? He should at 3:30 in the morning, but nope.
He slept most of the day today though!

From the not-in-jail Dan

After a bit of a delay due to devious relatives, I've found time to post again.

Soli's been doing better and better over all, he has a few moments and nights that are kind of trying, but he is getting more and more interactive. He almost smiled last night when I was acting like an idiot trying to get him to. For the most part, we can get him to quit crying pretty quick, getting him to go to sleep that is another story...

So basically, I think we'll go ahead and keep him.

When mom and dad came to visit. I tried to pick the best picture of dad.


Passed out.

He sit up on his own! (until he falls over)

Future musician (solomon too)

Kickin' it in tha' hood

The home-boys.

My little Beatboxer...

The two sure-fire cry stoppers for Soli are swinging and bouncing. This is how I can keep him from crying while teaching him a new skill! He's joining in already!
