August Update

The last month of the summer crept up on us so quickly! Gunnar is growing like a weed and we are just having so much fun with him each and every day! We sold our birds the other week because they were just too loud in the house and because I couldn't dedicate the time to them - it wasn't fair to them. It turned out really well as a sweet girl who loves birds came and bought them - she already had 12 birds at home...it was a perfect match!

Going back to work has been great too so far. It's really nice having my mom come over each day to take care of Gunnar. Ramin has been able to work as well and in the evenings we take turns taking care of the baby :)  Here are some of the most recent pictures!

Weekend laughs with daddy! These are some of my favorite pictures so far of Gunnar!

When I take him for walks he just loves it and gets super smiley!

Sitting on the couch watching TV.

Still taking a bath at the kitchen sink.

We went out to dinner with my friends Stephanie and Jill...Gunnar went with us and had fun.

Sleeping so peacefully on the couch.

It's been raining a lot here recently. We like to sit out on the porch and watch what's going on outside...on this day it started raining and we watched the raindrops fall.

Gunnar is starting to like his Bumbo a bit more. If we keep it up on the kitchen like this he really gets excited because he can see what's going on everywhere.

Our new favorite toys are his two Sophie Giraffes - one is the teether and the other is the plush lovie. He loves BOTH of them!

I took him to Target one day for some shopping....he sat very calmly in the cart and just loved looking around at everything hanging around the ceiling.

Trying to grab Sophie with his feet :P

I sat him in his high chair for the first time last weekend. He liked it alright and looked very inquisitively at the toys I had laid out for him.

This past weekend we had lunch with my friend Angie. She just loves "Baby Cuteness" as she calls him.

Jenn Baugh came over Sunday because she needed some baby time too. She was able to play with him a bit before he got tired and fell asleep in her arms.

Gunnar turned 5 months old this week so I need to take some new pictures of him with his little sticker :-)
