Little Bear.

And if that title didn't make you want to break into song:

"Little Bear, Little Bear, turn around..." then you must not have a toddler in your home, who is obsessed with that show.

Just some more photos of my adorable little man. I love having such a happy and willing subject!

(His sideways smirk!)

"What's with the ears, ma?!"

And, he's done playing...

Stripey.

My littlest cutie pie just hanging out, modeling his chubs!

2 months.

It's so hard to believe, but little man is already 2 months old! 

He is actually 9 weeks old today and it seems like just yesterday that we brought him home from the hospital. He has been smiling for weeks now, but they are becoming more and more frequent, and he has started squealing/giggling! 

Such a big boy!

Daddy's so funny!

Hanging out in his chair...

Happy.

It makes me happy that Ky loves her little brother so much. Totally unconditionally. She is the best.

Sleeping babies make me happy, too. Especially one that does a pretty great job sleeping right in the middle of this chaotic house with a loud and energetic toddler and a hyper dog.

Little baby feet make me really happy and I love that we get to see them all the time thanks to the warm weather. Kylie's little tootsies were always in socks when she was a baby due to the season.

And this photo of our family of 4 makes me super happy! It is, surprisingly, our first as a family of four. For whatever reason, we just never got all together on this side of the camera until now.  It was seriously stressing me out that we didn't have a family photo yet and Gavin is almost 2 months old. But, now we do, and I love it!

Summertime makes me ridiculously happy. Kylie loves being outside and I love the way she naps/sleeps after being outside! She has totally mastered the tricycle this Spring (she wasn't about to let all of the other neighborhood kids ride around on their bikes without her) and loves pedaling around the sidewalks and road!

The little guy.

Little dude is starting to lose his "newborn look" and is starting to look like a baby. I'm sad to see the newborn stage go (although I am pleased to welcome this new, happier demeanor), but at the same time, I love seeing his new personality emerge. He LOVES to be talked to and held and loved on... which is a good thing because I'm afraid Kylie was going to give him all of those things regardless!

Happy boy!

Gav's signature look: the sideways smirk! He's just too cool for all of us!

Look at that face! So edible! :)

The girl.

She's a little bit of:

Sweet

Spunky

& Silly

She's 2.75 years old, and although it breaks my heart to see my baby grow up, I love watching her become a little girl and discover and learn about the world around her. She is at such a fun age. Sure, she has her toddler moments and can be very strong-minded, but the majority of the time she is so fun and sweet and loving and just a delight to be around. 

We love you big girl!
