One Month Old

Baby Timmy is one month old today!  Here he is getting ready to watch the Hawkeyes beat the Badgers yesterday.
Then we decided to try to pose Cate and Timmy to take a picture for a birth announcement for him.  It's not easy to secure a one month old in the lap of an almost 16 month old.  Cate was so funny though because she was so excited to get to hold him.  This was the first time we let her try but since Timmy's arrival, she's been practicing with her dolls.  She was never really interested in dolls before, but now she carries them around the house, patting them on the back and kissing the tops of their heads.  She was more than happy to hug and kiss Timmy.  Of course she  threw in the occasional eye poke or head squeeze, but she was cute nonetheless.  Unfortunately, Timmy doesn't look very happy in most of these pictures so I don't think they'll make it to the announcement.  Thanks to Meredith for the adorable little outfit for him!

Cute, but maddening to get a decent picture, isn't it? :)

Just the beginning of many photo ops that'll make you sweat and collapse on the couch in exhaustion.

And Cate's got to get her eye pokes and head squeezes in now while she's still bigger than Timmy!
