A busy month

I realize that its been about a month since my last post. And I apologize, that is too long to go without new pictures of the little guy.

Its been a busy month. I've started to get acclimated at my new job with Case-New Holland, and when we're home, Meg and I have been working on a few home improvement projects. Patrick just keeps growing. He's now around 15 lbs and a lanky 27 inches long, which means he's graduated from the infant carseat to the "convertible" carseat. He's also learned how to laugh, and a tape of Meg and I trying to make him laugh would probably be quite entertaining.

We start the pictures with a trip to Oshkosh, where we have a few pictures of Patrick with his Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Hatton.

Next up was a trip to Winterset to see Grandma and Grandpa Sullivan, Hannah, and Lynn LaFollette. Also on the trip Patrick met Thor, Bella, Pete, Sadie, Buttercup, and an as yet unnamed snapping turtle, that appeared to be laying some eggs in the Sullivan's yard.

We did spend a little bit of time at home in the past month...


Finally, we took a trip to Indiana to introduce Patrick to Heather, Ken, Aaron and Davah, as well as a stop in to see some cousins.
