This, That, and a New Chair

A few months ago I found this little chair at a garage sale for $5. The material it was covered in was old and stained but I thought about recovering it. My mom went with me to Joann's Fabric to help pick out fabric for the chair. I wanted to find some retro cowboy fabric or some brown faux suede to match our couches. I got lucky and found both! I found some super cute red cowboy fabric and brown suede that had off white fuzz on the back. Here are the before and after pictures. 

Before

After - Bo loves his new chair!

The white is fuzz. 

The brown is the faux suede. 

Bo rockin' his camo pajamas. 

Flirting with the camera. 

Bo likes playing while sitting in his highchair. 

Practicing sitting in the highchair. 

Such a big boy!

Bo has been doing new things, trying new things, and being just an overall joy (most of the time) to be around. He tried some rice cereal but still hasn't lost the extrusion reflex so his tongue pushed all the food out instead of in. We're going to try again in a week or so. 

He's also been becoming a lot more active with his toys. He really enjoys them. He recognizes familiar toys and gets excited for new ones. Garage sales are so awesome for new, cheap toys. I love plush toys you can hang on things because I can pop them in the washing machine and put them outside (which is as hot as an oven) and they're as good as new! 

Bo trying the rice cereal. He liked it, but his tongue is not ready. 

LOVE this picture of my boys!

Hanging out and posing for mommy.

'Cheesin' it! 

A Man of Many Faces

Bo has so many expressions that I thought it would be fun to do a collage of them. 

Caught off guard face.

"See, I have a tongue!"

"Why am I on my belly!?"

"This is my 'cheese' face."

Just hanging out in my Bumbo.

I don't even know what this one is. :) 

 I think we may have a future choir member!

He is so much fun!

3 Months Old!

I can't believe Bo is almost three months old! He was twelve weeks old on Saturday and this next Saturday the 23rd he will be 3 months. It's weird how that works out, but every week counts so I like to say what week he is. 

A lot of changes seem to happen over night. He now can sit in an excersaucer or jumper (with blanket support) and play, he likes to stick his tongue out and he can roll over from back to front! Next week he'll be headed to college! 

My mom holding Bo. This picture is funny because it looks like he's trying to suck on the bottle.  

Bo loves playing on his play mat. He has a toy that he always stares at and talks to. Here he is making faces at it. 

Here is the toy he loves so much. 

Andrea Elmer graciously let us borrow a jumper and exersaucer, which he loves. Here he is in the jumper. He loves it! 

In the jumper running his tongue over is gums. I think he'll have some teeth before we know it!

Bo flirting. He has better control over his eyebrows than David or I so I don't know where he gets it. 

One foot barely reaches the floor, but it was enough to be able to jump a little. 

Bo woke daddy up one morning. Bo looks more surprised than David! 

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday

Bo's first 4th of July

Helping mommy cook. 

Shorts that Nana Bass made.

Bo's first time swimming - and it was at the lake!

He really liked it!

Look at those muscles! 

2 months old already!

I can't believe Bo is already 2 months old. On the other hand it has felt like he's always been here. He changes so much from week to week - I'm so amazed when look back at pictures from even a week ago. Bo had his 2 month check up and shots. He is 22 1/2 inches long and 10lbs. 14oz. He did good with the shots and only cried for a little bit. 

2 days old and 2 months old.

Bo and daddy napping. 

"Hi mom! I'm cuddling with daddy!"

Sweet boy in his new church clothes!

 

I wish I could turn these pictures, but oh well.
