Today's Outfit

Now with more teefies.

Chuck Taylors!

These pictures are from Sunday. I figured the "I heart football" onesie and Converse were appropriate for watching football. One benefit to having a baby is that you can dress them in ways that amuse you.

Post Nap Goodness

When he first wakes up, he's his most snuggliest. He's all warm and pink cheeked from sleep, and bouncy and giggly because you've come to see him.

Thanksgiving: We Laughed, We Cried, Part I

Thanksgiving morning in his Halloween finery. He's behind the times.

First Thanksgiving outfit. Pre outrageous diaper.

Off we go.

Establishing dominance with the 18 year old cat. And yet somehow, Gracie still doesn't get it.

Step off. I cannot be contained, woman.

Thanksgiving: We Laughed, We Cried, Part II

State Puff Marshmellow Buddy in his new winter jacket.

Close up. Displeased close up.

We spent most of the day making dinner, and had planned it early enough (5pm) that he should have been in a fine mood:

So we choked down dinner to the dulcet tones of his objection at the injustice of the high chair and life in general. The horror of eating stuffing and turkey is NOT TO BE BORNE.

On the plus side, he was asleep by 6:30pm so we watched a movie. Of course, we shudder in horror at the prospect of what Friday morning holds.

As I rocked him to sleep, I told him about last Thanksgiving where I was hugely pregnant and wondering what the next year's Thanksgiving would hold. And I told him how thankful I was to have him here, and tickled to have my holiday dinner cut short by his ability to bolster support for his anarchist agenda wherever he goes.

Well, obviously I have no career in film. I'm sorry about both the sideways file and the horrible lighting. I'll do this again in the next few days, rectifying both problems. It's too cute to not share, and I hope you don't mind turning your heads!

Thank you!!

Thank you for the wonderful package! It was full of so many wonderful goodies.

Climbing on the box and pushing the box across the floor was half the fun.

A moose! Welcome to the fold. May I suck on your face?

Peach Puffs are his favorite kind of puffs.

Taking the puffs with him on his walkabout.

Handsome as a devil in his new fleece.

moving on up

He's now 60% walking:

20% falling:

And 20% regaining his composure:

Sunday Morning

He joined us for eggs and toast with his gripper piggly wigglies.

Friday Night

Open mouth, insert sock.
