So here are a few pictures of Zachary from the last week or two. Just so everyone is updated and knows that he is still the cutest little boy! (Cause I know y'all were really concerned)

Zachary has a sudden facination with Joe's hats. If Zachary is still awake when Joe gets home from the restaurant he almost falls out of my arms reaching for his dad and then reaching for his dad's hat. He'll keep the hat on for about a minute and then takes it off so he can chew on it. We have had to exchange the hat for some old ones that he can chew on as long as he wants to.

This is from last weekend. Since you can't read his shirt it says....Chicks Dig Me. And it has a little baby chick on it. Way cute!


Zachary loves to hang over the end of the couch and try to reach for the tree. Try as he might he just can't reach it just yet....thank goodness. Several of my friends have been over and consider me lucky since I can decorate my whole tree and they are only able to decorate the top half of their trees due to their little ones. I'm enjoying it this year while I can. I may be encouraging Zachary a little too early though....as you can see I give him a string of beads off of the tree that he can play with. Maybe next year I'll just surround the tree with a gate. Won't that look pretty?!


This was a picture that I couldn't resist taking. He was so tired that night that he just passed out in Joe's arms.

And this one is from tonight's bath. What a cute kid! I think that he might be starting to look a little more like his mommy and not so much like his daddy. Or maybe it is just wishful thinking.

On a little side note....maybe you can see it in some of the pictures...Zachary has a bruise (or what looks like a bruise) just to the right above his right eye. It has been there since he was 3 or 4 months old. It just appeared one day. I was a bit concerned so I showed the doctor on one of his Well Baby visits. The doc said that it was just a bunch of cappillary (spelled totally wrong) veins gathered close to the skin's surface. Then he goes on to tell me that he knows of a great cranium plastic surgeon that I could call. I almost had to ask him to say that again just to make sure that I heard him right. As I am just staring at the doctor he asks me if I want the surgeon's number. I said is the bump/bruise going to go away? He said that it would eventually. I told him that I would pass on the number. Unbelievable!!! The reason that I am finally blogging about this is that if one more person asks me if... Zachary bumped his head, or he must be crawling due to the bump on his head, or did he fall off the couch...I think that I just might scream. People must think that I beat my child. I feel like I am always explaining his bump/bruise....especially at Church. It seems to me that it is the same people over and over that are asking. I think that I am just going to start telling people that Joe likes to head butt him in the morning. What kind of a reaction do you think I might get?
