Warm Laps and Foot Phones

Being the first of the kids to be born in a place with lots of family nearby (and the first one with big sisters big enough to relish in being the big sisters), Gussie has no end of warm laps on which to nap and play, and he seems to be enjoying it. 

They were both so content like this that when bed time rolled around I almost just let them sleep on the couch together.

Michael Jr might be entering that "what's so special about a little baby" phase of big brotherhood. He's been trying to sleep in our bed and sit in my lap 24/7, and he allegedly bopped Gussie on the head a couple times when Catherine was holding him today.

But he's pleading "not guilty" to those allegations.

Just kidding. That is actually the face he makes when you ask him if he can close one eye. He really thinks he's closing one eye.

He tried to call you to tell you about it, but for some reason you didn't pick up your phone.
