Patrick's changes

Patrick is growing like a weed and can do new things every day. He has rolled over once, does baby push-ups, can hold his head up, and smiles on a regular basis, especially at 6am.
Just waking up.

It seems that Patrick inherited Ryan's sleeping style.

This is Patrick's sleeping buddy. The otter is bigger than him right now! He sometimes reaches over and holds on to him. I also love this diaper with crazy monkeys on it.


I have tried to catch Patrick's smile on camera, and this is the best I can do so far. His smile makes everybody so happy!

More visitors!

In early July, my dear friend Shyre and her awesome husband John came to visit Port Angeles. Patrick loved to meet them as they are his Godparents! We had a great time, we can't wait to hang out with them again.

Shyre pouting with Patrick.

Ryan does lots of things with Patrick in his sling. Below he is making us all breakfast.

Family visit!

Ryan's parents, brother and sister-in-law came to visit us in late June. We had a great time showing them around the area. Luckily the weather was great. We even went on some hikes with Patrick. He loved meeting his family!
Patrick didn't want us to take this picture, but it gives a glimpse of his mad face. Grandma was trying to cheer him up!

Patrick really enjoyed sleeping on grandpa.

Here's grandma and Patrick!

Here is Patrick and Aunt Sarah after a good 6 hour hike.

This is me feeding Patrick on the hike. He slept a good part of the time and was a real angel! We will take him outside as much as possible, he likes it a lot.

Getting bigger!

Patrick has been growing very fast over the last couple of weeks. He is two months old now! He can hold his head up and graces us with a few smiles a day.
Dad gives him his baths most often, and Patrick loves it!
We decided to let Patrick's bum air out one day. He took the opportunity to pee on everything within range.
His favorite place to sleep is ON people. Example below:

He interacts a lot more now. He even waves! He really likes Ducky, his puppet, who keeps him company.
More cute expressions and poses with Ducky:

He likes to just kick back and relax at times:
