Ode to the Baby Whisperers

Grandma, oh grandma,

Baby Whisperer you are.

I see you, I smile.

You teach me new things.

Who knew snorting like a pig

would make me laugh so?
I cry, you hold me.

Instantly I feel better.

It's grandma (great-Nana) magic!

Snow Fun Part Two!

The weather people were finally right--we had 13 inches of snow this past weekend. While I am not yet able to appreciate the significance of a snowfall, my new best friend, Cassius, sure is!

He leaps, he bounds--
He seems to have endless energy. Did he have a Red Bull this morning?

Whew, that was tiring. Time to go inside and sleep the standard 12 hour nap.

Snow Fun Part One!

With all the talk of an impending snow storm, my mom and dad decided to take some pictures of me in my snow suit. I think I look like a dork and I did voice my opinion about that. Mom and dad think I look very cute and also think these are good 'torture' pictures for when I am 16.

Did you know we have a dog? His name is Cassius and I just started to notice him. Apparently mom and dad have had him for nearly five years...why was I not informed of this? He is very friendly and he loves to try to lick my hands and face. This totally grosses out mom, so she is constantly shushing Cassius away from me and is washing my hands and face if Cassius touched me. I think she is being paranoid, plus she won't be able to keep me away from Cassius once I am mobile! I have a feeling Cassius and I are going to be great pals.

A Pair of Choppers

Hi again, everyone. There's so much going on around here I needed to post again today. Two weeks ago I started cutting my first two teeth on my bottom gums. Man, did that hurt! Mom and dad said I was ultra crabby and I had to take that yummy acetaminophen every four hours to alleviate the pain. Solid foods weren't going down too well as evidenced by my oatmeal mess. I also learned how to blow 'raspberries' when I eat--it's fun to spray mommy and daddy with food! I wouldn't agree to a photo shoot of my new teeth, but I am sure you will get to see them soon.

Cutting teeth really makes a baby tired. I was so tired here I couldn't keep my pacifier in my mouth.

Finally, a picture of me laid-back in my exersaucer. I love this thing! I can jump and jump and jump and throw all my toys off the edge and make mommy and daddy pick them up. Oh, the power of being seven months old! Mommy and daddy say I am feeling much better since my teeth have cut through the gums and I am happier than I have been in a while. All in all, I am a pretty laid-back kid (for now!).
