What a hairy boy!

So I decided to use some advice given to me by my wise sister.  She told me she would strip baby Amanda and baby Ashley and put them on her legs(like pictured) to ‘air’ out.  While they were they she would lightly stroke their back.  I decided to put this wisdom to use, as Elias has a diaper rash(poor guy).  At first he was fussing and wiggling around, but once I started giving him his “back massage” he calmed right down and loved it!

I had a VERY hard time adjusting to the new baby schedule.  But now that he is growing so fast I can already tell I am going to miss that time span.  Just for the fact of how tiny and helpless he was. 
But I am very excited for the toddlers years, except for the more rancid diapers.  I am NOT looking forward to that!

  4. Adam was totally hairy like that. It seemed like the closer we got to his due date the less it got. Unlike elias it was blonde hair. Elias looks way more hairier (if that is a word) because his hair is so dark. He is so beautiful. I am so happy for you to experience this.

  5. Thx! This has been a very good learning experience! It’s getting easier and easier as I learn more.

    Syd: Your hair turned blond because I dropped you in a vat of bleach…accidentally of course!

    Ciara: Your mom didn’t shine your head I did! I would take you over to one of those car buffers and shine away! You would shine so much we had to wear sun glasses when we took you out side!

  9. Sorry, I have not posted in awhile but with my brothers passing and my work schedule it seems like I have no time to do anything,

    Anyhoo. What a cute kid! I need to get over there and see him in person.
    I am going to be a Grandpa (again) really soon. My daughter does not seem to know what causes this……SIGH

  13. Funny how experience makes you wiser (note: I intentionally did not mention age makes one wiser) Well Kris is a very hairy boy still and he was not a preemie. Take a close look and see he has a tiny moostach and pair of chops. His back is pretty furry still. Looks like he will have to shave by the time he is 10. I ‘ll make him grow it out so he can impress all the gringas!

  17. Hey by the time Kris gets his facial hair I MIGHT have enough to grow a small beard!!!

    Syd: Yeah i hate it when I kiss a guy and they don’t shave! ;) lol

  18. Wow! Elias nearly has as nice a coat as I do. I am still keeping an eye out for the silver stripe to appear in mine, so I know I am dominant.

    It looks like he’ll keep the hair on his head though. Poor littly Hughbie lost his hair on top and looked like an old man when he was 1 month old.

    Here is a pic of him with his old man look. This could be my fav picture of him, he just looks like an old man yelling from a porch at kids.

    Eli is a great little baby, you guys are very blessed. I love his eyes in these pictures, he looks so much more aware of what’s around him.
