Our Jolley Baby

Many of you reading this will remember Clark's early fascination with animals. He couldn't get enough of playing with his toy animals, making animal noises, reading books about animals. This was all well before he turned two.
Cannon has his own fascination.
This boy loves any kind of sports. His favorite word is "ball".















Here he is cheering during the NCAA Championship basketball game tonight. It was cute until he started throwing the basketball at the TV because he wanted to play too. When we go for neighborhood walks he thrills to see the driveway basketball hoops.











Cannon has learned to give "crusties". That's what we call his dirty looks. He's not actually mad when he gives you a crusty and he will give a crusty on demand. If he was really mad at you he'd just scream really loud and long before he takes a swipe at you.










Grandpa Cannon came and gave Cannon his second haircut. It was definitely time for a haircut, but it did make me sad to cut those lovely locks.













Would you want to mess with this kid? It's usually best to just get out of his way.














The Easter bunny brings everyone a new book. Cannon isn't a big fan of books yet, except to color in them. Cannon lost interest in his new book after the second page, but it made for a great picture!












As a baby, Cannon was very eager to interact socially. He smiled early and his personality just seems to get bigger and bigger. What a joy he is to us.

And in case any one is wondering about the "Jolley" baby.....My Mom was a Jolley, my middle name is Jolley, and so is Cannon's middle name.

We're the Jolley-Foxes!
