A long time comin...

It's been a while since I posted - in the last few months we have moved into a new house, had houseguests for quite some time (miss you, Jen and Jesse!!), Christmas has come and gone, and things are FINALLY settling down some! Silas doesn't sleep much right now, so the times that I could be blogging I am typically sleeping. That said, here are some FABULOUS pictures of my little man!!! These were taken in early January.

~6 1/2 months

Rollin' On!

Here are a few videos of Silas rolling over! This first one is from last week sometime... David and I built a fort in the living room, Silas provided the entertainment.

These next few are from last night... We had so much fun! Here is me playing with Silas...

Here is Silas after he got the hang of rolling over again. It's all he's doing, now!



And THIS is the greatest video of all time!!! David and I were CRYING we were laughing so hard!!!

~4.5 months old

Video Marathon!!!

Findlay Griggs, a little friend of ours, calls Silas Slilas, prompting the nickname Sli. I LOVE it... So you may see me refer to Silas as Sli on here. That is the background!
Anyway, here are a few videos of Sli!!

This one is from when he was 2 months old, almost to the day. Right before he lost all his hair!!
Not a very long one, but this was Silas' raspy cry!! I MISS it!!

Here's one from when Sli was 3 months old. SOUNDS a little like he's fussy, but he was having so much fun with Daddy that night!!

Silas is a VERY talkative kid, but typically when the camera goes on, his vocal chords cease working. Here is a rare talkative video!!



This one is from the same night... I LOVE his little laugh!!

I have video of Silas rolling over from back to tummy, too... I'll post those later!!

My little man is getting so big!!!

My amazing son!

It has been brought to my attention that I am a HORRIBLE parent for not posting pictures on the blog of Silas (ahem...Slilas...) for FOUR MONTHS!! Thank you, Natalie.
Silas Augustus Verdery was born on June 24th at 4:11 in the afternoon! He was 8lbs 7oz and 21 inches long!! It was a hard birth, but what birth isn't, right??
Silas is so amazing! He is one of THE most talkative babies ever! We sit and talk for thirty minute spans... it's such a blast! I often have to leave church during the service not because Silas is fussy, but because he is talking so much and church members turn around and smile! ADORABLE, but distracting!!
When he was first born, Silas was very SERIOUS and analyzed everything and everyone. He very rarely gave out smiles. We took a little while to get to know each other, too... Silas had a rough first few weeks. He cried a lot, and neither of us got much sleep. He's decided that he likes it here, now, and sleeps really well.
He's just started to suck his thumb in the past couple days! It's AMAZING! He's also rolling over tummy to back regularly and has rolled over back to tummy once or twice!
From this point on, I will do my BEST to post pictures of Silas regularly!!
Here are a few from our first few months together...

This was the evening he was born!

This Weekend

Hi everyone,
Here's a video of this past weekend. First we were cutting down trees in Tim's yard, then we went to Athens for Twilight. Hopefully I can get this video on here.
