Hayden is beginning to track objects better

Hi!

I think he is going to have a lot to say once he starts talking!

Hayden has the funniest poses when he is sleeping...

Hayden hates hats but will wear them reluctantly in the car. This one was made by volunteers at the University of Michigan as a Christmas present to new babies born near the holiday.

Hayden also has a tendency to stick up his pinky finger. He will do this while holding his pacifier or a bottle. He is very sophisticated for a 3 1/2 wk old!

More pics in the froggy outfit - will be sad when he outgrows this one.

Spending quality time with Aunt Kate in Iowa

Hayden crosses his fingers when he is thinking about life. He is about to get into thinking position in this photo.

This was a new thinking pose that Hayden created for this week. I think it works!

Maybe a smile??? Hayden does smile when he is going to sleep but when he is awake it is rare to see a smile.

Having fun with cousin Jake in Iowa

Hayden, Jake, and Addelle - cousins

Cuddled up in a receiving blanket before braving the cold Michigan weather.

Hayden looks like he is yelling here but I think he is really just yawning.

So cute when swaddled and sleeping...

Week four was a good week for Hayden. We travelled to Iowa to see Grandpa and Grandma and he did really well with the 9+ hour car trip (with multiple eating stops for Hayden). We did get a visit from the cops while we were stopped on I-80. I guess we looked suspicious while pulled over on the side of the exit to feed Hayden in the Suburban.
