Will Goes To School

Today Will is 4 months old!! Crazy. My kids have been wanting to meet Baby Will. I promised them that before the year was up, I would have my mom bring him to visit. I decided this week would be best since next week will be a bit chaotic. It was hysterical. When I brought him in, all the kids crowded around his car seat. His lip puckered out and he started to cry...you could tell he was overwhelmed. Once I got him out of his seat and loved on him for a minute, he started to warm up. It didn't take him long to start cutting up with my class-smiling big and even giving high fives! My favorite thing one of my students said today..."Can he be our class child?" I won't get a class pet because they are just too much work, so I guess they have adopted Will as our class child :) Hysterical.

The Boys teaching Will how to high five!


They wanted me to put him in this chair, so I did. He was well supervised! He looked so funny in that big chair.


I am loving this age. And I keep hearing that it just gets better and better. But it is so fun right now. He smiles and laughs all the time. His chuckle brightens my day. Sometimes he cracks himself up which then cracks us up!

Here is the 4-1-1 on Will:
-He loves playing peek-a-boo
-He is loving his bath (except for lotion-not a big fan!)
-He can now roll over, though he is stubborn and usually only does it in his bed when no one is in there-I still haven't gotten it on video.
-He loves to eat! 7 oz every 4 hours...
-He saves his biggest poops for church when he is dressed in nice outfits
-He doesn't love the car (which is why we are a bit weary about the beach next weekend...)
-He has now noticed Bentley and will pet him (grab his fur and PULL) whenever Bent is near
-He is a great napper, and very moody when he does not get in a good morning nap
-He is a snuggler!
-He puts everything in his mouth which equals drool everywhere
-He is PRECIOUS :)

This is my favorite onesie....I found it on sale for $2.50 at Children's Place. SO ADORABLE!! And yes, he gets ALL those chins from his mama-looks just like my baby pictures!
And this is his smiley self tonight right after dinner when John was playing peek-a-boo with him

Hi Brooke!
I love the pictures of Will getting to meet your class. Also, I love reading about Will and comparing him to Lillian - they sound a lot alike! She is rolling over but only when I'm not looking, not a fan of the car, and loves to eat (she eats 8 ozs every four hrs and 2 of her bottles have rice cereal in them - oink :)). Hope to see you again and meet William sometime soon.

He is too precious. I am in love with the onesie! I definitely need some more cute sayings on onesies!

Will is precious. Love the pictures! I especially love the one of him in the chair with all of the children around him. So sweet!

Your posts about your mom and the one about Mother's day are tear-jerkers! They are so sweet and well spoken (typed). I don't think anyone can understand how much they can possibly love someone until they have a child. I didn't anyway! The love is truly unconditional and sometimes it is overwhelming!

I need to meet this little one asap! And just for the record, I think he looks so much like you as a baby!

I am SO going to miss seeing him every day, but so happy that you will get to enjoy him all day for the next few months. This is such a fun age. Loved all the pictures..
especially the HIGH FIVE one!
love you baby,
mom
