Rhys and his cool pjs and toy

We went sledding in the our back yard. Rhys only seemed to notice that his feet were a little cold.

Look who was standing up in his crib! He can pull himself up by the railing.

Almost Crawling...

Rhys has been working on trying to crawl, and is almost there. For now, he is able to get on all fours, and then he scoots...backwards. Well, at least he has the right idea!

The first weigh-in

Rhys came into the world on 5/20, weighing in at 6 lbs 7oz, and 19 3/4 inches long! His cry was really soft, and it sounded like he was singing a "laaaaaa".
