Play time

Just a few pictures of Mitch playing on the floor--he's sitting on a rug made by Great-Grandma Werner. He's getting very good at sitting on his own and before we know it he's going to be crawling!

Tummy time is now one of his favorites!

Solid food!

Mitch got to try rice cereal a couple weeks ago for the first time. He wasn't too sure of the taste at first, but definitely liked eating from a spoon. He loved the water we gave him afterward and has steadily gotten better with eating!

Getting ready to eat...

So, we got Mitch his high chair and have been having him sit in it when we're eating. He seems to like it; next weekend we might try some rice cereal!

More snow in Portland

So, on Christmas day it snowed giant snowflakes...Mitch had a great time hanging out by the window and watching and didn't even care that he was completely folded in half!

We also had a lot of fun playing on the floor with new toys.

At one point Mitch rolled over and his head landed right on this cup...he stayed there for a few minutes...just long enough to get some pictures. We'll let him know that he might want something a little softer when he starts sleeping with a pillow!

Five months old-getting big!

First Christmas!

Posing after church in front of the tree...Mitchell's first Christmas!

Christmas morning, opening stockings.

Just relaxing a bit...Christmas day was a little overwhelming so most of the presents were opened when Mitch was sleeping or over the next few days.

Mitch did enjoy the wrapping paper though I'm not sure he understood that the present is what's underneath!
