May 2011

Durham has started to bat at toys hanging in front of him.

The first year we've allowed her to attempt ice cream cones.
Needless to say, they are her favorite thing EVER.

Durham now completely rejects pacifiers.
He's much more interested in chewing on his thumb.  

"He's smiling at me!"

Little goof-ball.

Mama won a foot bath at a baby shower.
There were a lot of foot baths during the month of May.  

She would even wash my feet!
