Von and his little friend

Von is starting to interact with us a little more. In addition to smiling nonstop, he has started to reach out to touch my face and my hair. He loves the little gym and has gotten very good at batting the hanging toys. Here is a video of him with his favorite toy--a soft Haba rattle. He usually smiles and smiles while playing with it, but today he was getting sleepy, so he was a little more mellow. Enjoy!

Family time

We had an amazing week when Aaron's Grammie and Aunt Kathy came for a visit from Iowa. Oh, the fun we had!! We talked and talked and doted on Von, talked, doted, doted, and doted. This morning he woke up wondering where his fan club was--the auntie who would walk him all over the house to look at everything and calm him down and the Grammie who could magically rock him to sleep. He took a 2 1/2 hour nap this morning, which tells me that being doted on for days on end must be very exhausting. :)

As an added bonus, Aaron's parents came for the weekend so we had lots of Hunt family fun! And finally, Kathy, Verla, and I visited my grandmother (Marmee) yesterday. Enjoy the pictures!

A fun time was had by all.

So, so sad

This morning, Von woke himself out of his nap with a HUGE sneezing fit. After about a dozen aDORable sneezes, I grabbed the camera to try to record it, but of course as soon as I turned it on, the sneezing stopped. And this is what followed. It is not for the faint of heart! But even crying, he is just so cutie, I had to share. You might like to know that after this, he fell right back to sleep. :)
