Nine Months! Rhys just crossed the break-even point – that benchmark where he’s spent more time out of the womb than inside.
🕷
Parenting during a pandemic is full of so many curveballs. I usually drop Rhys off at my mom’s while working, but last week my stepdad just got back from a trip to Baltimore and they weren’t able to get their COVID test results right away. That meant a five day work-week of trying to look after Rhys while cranking out projects. I took more than a couple meetings with him trying to nap in my arms or crawling around my feet.

It might sound like I’m patting myself on the back, and… I totally am. Last week was a handful! But I’m glad we went through it, and we had some good times too.
This was both one of the most fun and tiring months from the #worldofrhys. So much of his personality is coming into focus, and it’s… a lot of what we would have expected from combining DNA from the two of us. High-energy, curious, and determined.
🌳 It’s super obvious that Rhys loves the outdoors. Trees. Grass. The ocean.
🚶🏾♂️He keeps teasing us like he’s about to take his first step.
😬 He’s also got two bottom teeth now through.
🐕 He and Beignet are BUDS.
Also… he’s outgrown a lot of clothes. We’re gonna have to restock on costumes soon.
