A Week of Firsts

So this has been a week (or two) of new things for us and for Sawyer. I made my first Jon Jon suit, actually I made two, but I think they are both cute, if I do say so myself. : ) Sawyer has crawled his first crawl, or however you say that. He has his first two teeth, and to round out the week, his first ear infection. That's definitely the low part of the week. He has been cranky with a capital "C". That's actually how I knew that something just was not right, so I took him back in to see the doctor, and sure enough that pesky ear infection had not been taken care of by the first round of antibiotics so we've moved on to the second one. WhooHoo! He is acting more like the sweet little boy we all know and love, so I have hope that it's finally going away!


His new teeth, which I have yet to be able to get a picture of, are very cute. Whenever you try to look at them he grins and sticks his tongue out, so right now I just get glimpses. Trust me though, if he chews on your finger, you know they're there. : )


I think he might have actually gotten the hang of the crawling thing last week sometime if he hadn't been sick. He's getting on all fours and rocking back and forth and then he'll pick up one little leg and inch it forward. It's quite cute. The funniest though, has been this week while he hasn't felt very good. He's been trying to get on all fours, even when he doesn't feel his best, but instead of sitting and rocking, like he normally does, he would kind of fall over like a little drunk man. It was so sad, but yet hilarious at the same time! : )

Here are a few pictures of the Jon Jon suit process.

I love the expression on his face in this picture. He's looking as though he's concerned that he may not look so good in these suits his mother is attempting. This one was before we hemmed the legs and put in snaps.

I love this picture! You can't really see the Jon Jon suit, but he looks cute all the same. This was at Bethy's wedding and as Aunt Jenn says, he was the most handsome man in the room! I'm sure he got asked to dance more than any other guy!
