Life with the Little One

Life has been a lot more fun, thanks to this little one who now smiles up a storm. Adorable, right? (By the way, if you enjoyed this picture, realize that it comes to you with no small effort! He smiles a lot, but then when we whip out the camera he refuses to perform. This is a team effort with Matt making him smile and me taking the picture. Good thing there are two of us!)

Working out together. The little tot does tummy time, while I do my own version of "tummy time" in a plank.
Need to grow into this one!
On a walk to the library in his "fuzzy suit" on an unseasonably warm day this week.
He has discovered the mirror at the top of the swing. He loves to look at himself. What vanity.
Matt likes to make Tate "stand." Also, how awesome is this shirt?

I'm a soon-to-be working mother. Let's all cry together. Boooooooo-hooooooo.

I'm glad your having fun. Your child is adorable.

And on another note, the time reality smacked me hardest in the face was the postpartum plank position.

He is so cute, I love the picture of you two working out together! Tessa has the same fortune-teller shirt, hers predicts that she will be a conspiracy nut!

mr. tate just keeps getting cuter, doesn't he? we have the same swing, and jack does the same thing--stares at himself and smiles. whatever works to get a few minutes to get half of something done, right? good luck starting (paid) work again. the bright side: you'll love even the dirty work with tate when you get home. miss you!
