Trying to Catch It!

Sheesh! Landon has been smilin' up a storm lately - most affectionately at the owl hat Amy bought him (thank you again, Ames... he LOVES it!), Blaire's "deluxe" baby toy, and a funny stuffed cow from Tony's boss and his wife. Here's a video of me TRYING to catch a hint of a smile. How is it that babies just shut it off when the camera comes out? He must be taking pointers from Sable.

He has been so much fun lately! It's really rewarding to see him respond to us. He smiles, coos, and has even laughed out loud a couple of times. Such a doll. So lucky he's ours! Not so lucky that he demands we bounce with him on an exercise ball 10 hours a day, but it makes us aware of all the things parents do for their littles, even when it's not that fun. (A huge amount of thanks to our parents - you guys are awesome!)

Speaking of dolls, here's a shot of Landon, Kathryn, and Owen with their dads, taken a couple weeks ago at a family dinner. Don't all of them look exactly like their fathers?

The weather has been amazing here the past week or so! I think we're supposed to reach a high of 85 degress today. Unreal. Lucky though, because this is a hint of what Tony's been working on now:

... but you can't see anything else until we reveal the "after". He's a hardworking man, that Tony.
