Saying adios to the baby bangs...

At 8 months old, Adam sat for his first haircut.  Bye-bye, baby bangs and ear mullets!

Before:




After:
 
 
Check out his two bottom chompers, too.
 
 
Grady and Colin had fun with the combs and water...

Appetizers

A few nights ago while I was fixing dinner, Grady came into the kitchen, paused next to me and said "Mommy, what are you doing?"
 
I replied that I was fixing dinner, and that it was almost ready.
 
He says "Oh.  May I have some strawberries to start?"
 
To start.  As in strawberries for appetizers.  Because, you know, we always have an appetizer course before the main meal...

Rolling, rolling, rolling...

Four days shy of four months old, and Adam decided to finally figure out how to get his arm and shoulder out from under him and roll from back to front.

Hurray!

Baseball!

Grady and Daddy went to see a Bowie Baysox game last night.  The Baysox are a minor league farm team for the Orioles. 

Grady was super excited for the baseball game.  He joined the kids club, gave Louie the mascot a high five, learned "take me out to the ball game", and when to yell "CHARGE!" at the appropriate times.

He also got to run the bases after the game with the other kids (no parents allowed).  He came home full of excitement over getting to "run on the baseball dirt."

But the highlight of the night was when Daddy caught a foul ball for him.  Not sure which one of them was more excited.

Here are a couple pictures from the evening.  Even though the Baysox lost to the Harrisburg Senators 3-2, they had a great time!

Tummy time

Almost four weeks old now and Adam is doing great!  It's been warm here lately which means shorts for everyone and we're getting to enjoy seeing his cute, yet scrawny, baby chicken legs.

Adam Joseph Hunter

Grady and Colin are excited to welcome their new baby brother, Adam!  Adam was born on May 25, 2012 at 10:33am weighing 7 lbs 6 oz and measuring 21 inches long.

He's taken to nursing like a champ and is sleeping well thus far.  The big brothers are so gentle with him.  It's fantastic to watch. :)

We were very fortunate to have Grandma and Grandmom at the house when we had to leave for the hospital.  The boys were excited to spend time with "the grandmas" while we were in the hospital with Adam.  And we are very thankful for the extra help while we started learning to navigate life with the three boys.

Welcome, baby Adam!

Misconstrued?

For the first time, Grady's interested in and curious about Santa this year.

He was watching a Dora Christmas special a few days ago and asked about the "naughty list" and the "nice list."  We explained as best we could and life went on.

Last night he was resisting getting ready for bed and as a last ditch effort, we told him that he needed to be a good boy and listen to mommy and daddy or else Santa might put him on the naughty list. 

He promptly replied "BUT I WANNA BE ON THE NAUGHTY LIST!!!"



So much for that tactic...
