Reflections on Father's Day...

My first father's day. Not sure exactly why, but the day doesn't seem to have the same level of gravity as Mother's day. Maybe has to do with the number of nightime feedings that I'm responsible for... or maybe the number of messy diapers I change on a daily basis... who knows. Either way, I can take what I can get these days.

Tomás is doing great, growing and continuing to hit developmental milestones. Probably the biggest single change is in his overall awareness of people and what is happening around him. Certain things especially capture his interest, specific colors, kids, any type of moving water, etc., and its really fun to watch him check things out. One thing that is perhaps one of my favorite things about Tomás is how generous he is with smiles... almost any time of day if you give him a big smile, you will get a big tooth-less grin in return... this photo was from this morning, my first Father's day.
