Someone pulled himself up for the first time today!
Hanging out in the front yard with dad, blowing bubbles
And of course, a Fathers Day nap
Got a little something on your face there, son (lettuce and spinach freshly cut from the garden)
Avocado aftermath: when giving him bath is just easier…
Morning nap with dad while mom is at yoga
Meeting Tim and Tita Jones at the farmers market
I’m too sweaty for this shirt (even at Bed, Bath & Beyond)
Hanging out with great-grandma Jan
Sunday with family
Des and grandma Mike
Des has this hotel thing figured out
Iowa City art fair
Snow cone bliss
Des’ pride and joy: spoon
Stopping in at the Airliner for lunch and a pint
Des and grandma playing paradiddles on the cheerio container
Des, Cal and mom tickling the ivories
What are these “cows” you speak of? Are they these gray things here?
The sun has gone to bed, and so must I
Dad and Cal playing with the stomp rocket
awesome mid-air rocket shot by grandma Anne
This year’s theme is “sleeping.” Mom and Des and a morning nap
Dad and Des napping while mom was at yoga
Right before the sky opened up at the farmers market, Des is concentrating on baguette inspection
Lunch with ma, great-grandma Jan, and pa
Back home opening cards, Des is much more interested in chewing on the envelope
Only had to pin him down for 10 minutes first, but then Des really enjoyed our morning nap
During his six-month pictures, Des explored/touched/grabbed many new things- tree branches, grass, mulch. When we were done, he faceplanted into the grass and laid there for a several moments, as if deeply inhaling the earth for the first time. Or he was just too tired to sit up.
Des’ first swim lessons at the Y
Little fish all tuckered out
