A few of my favorite things...

Another crazy week has come and gone! My older sister was over today and she hadn't seen William in a week. We were marveling yet again at how much this little guy can change in a week! It's been fun to find the things that William loves. It's interesting because these little newborns can't show much emotion. One thing we know he loves is eating. Which is probably why I haven't posted in the last week. That's about all we do lately! One of our other favorite activities is taking bathes. Honestly, I know he doesn't NEED a bath every night, but for the last week it has become a favorite activity! It started partially because Grandma Tyler LOVES giving babies baths. And sometimes he really does need it (with all of his fountains). But giving him a bath before he really goes to bed at night definitely calms him down! He sleeps so much better during the nights when he has a bath first!He rarely cries in his little tub, as long as he has a washcloth on his chest and his feet are in the water. He hates cold feet! He just sits there looking around, soaking it all in. We've been using Johnson's Bedtime Bath Soap and it works wonders! I love how good he smells after, too!
He does cry when we take him from the water to the towel, but as soon as we wrap him up he cuddles right up!

I also love watching this kid sleep! He loves the Utes, but was a little embarrassed by their performance the other night against BYU...He's starting to fill out, too! Yes, he is still a tall skinny little guy, but he's starting to get a nice little belly and some extra skin on his arms and legs! Not quite as skinny! Oh, and speaking of loving watching him sleep...he likes to wiggle out of his blankets and we usually find him with his arms above his head like this.

What a stud!
