Snow day

We woke up to about 6 or 7 inches of new snow at Grandpa's this morning! I guess this is my first real snow since the stuff I saw before was just ice. Fear not people, I'm just on Grandpa's deck in this picture. I didn't spend a huge amount of time outside without a hat on.

Must...push...the...button....

I'm having a great time with my exersaucer, although it can be a tricky little bugger to operate.

Bubbling up

Blowing bubbles is so fun! I do it all of the time, but I'm finding it to be a little tricky now since they usually end in a very large string of drool.

Can we just skip to dessert?

This food thing doesn't seem like it's all it's cracked up to be. What's the big deal with rice cereal mixed with formula? I questioned it so much that I got Mom to take a taste of it and she actually thought it was OK. Oh well, I'll try it again tomorrow, but I sure hope the fruits and veggies are better than this!

I wish the Doctor would "Do-Little"

Yes, that's right...I wish the doctor would do a little less when I go to see her. If Dr. L. would leave out the shots, I'd be perfectly happy. Mom and Dad were there for support...you can see Dad and me giving our tough-guy looks in preparation for me being stuck below. I liked the oral vaccine pretty well...it was sweet and tasty...but the needles weren't my fave although I tried really hard to be brave. It was OK though...I was all smiles after we got home!

I almost forgot, you people probably want to know the vital stats from my 4-month checkup. I'm a hefty 17lbs. 7oz and a whopping 26-3/4 in. long, so I'm in the 90th and 95th percentiles respectively. In other words, it still looks like I could have eaten one of my nursery mates at the hospital. However, instead of eating smaller children, I'm going to move on to rice cereal since Dr. L. gave me the nod!

Big Wheel

Hey everybody...today I went for a ride in my stroller big boy style when we went to University Village to run some errands! No more carrycot. It's sooo comfy in this thing. I've got a sheepskin lining, an activity bar (that I can't quite reach yet) and to top it off, I can recline! If I had known this thing were going to be so fab, I would have worked on my head's stability a little more a little sooner. I'm gonna have to have Mom and Dad pimp my ride a little more though if Mom is gonna make me wear the silly puppy hat and coat. I've got a reputation to protect.

Grub time with Grandpa

I was so happy to see Grandpa after a long time away from home. He couldn't believe how much I have grown!

Working on my TT

No, I'm not working on my Audi TT...gimme a few years 'til I can drive for that. I'm working on my Tummy Time! I'm doing so much better with that now. Here I am chillin' in my crib trying to get control of my bear that Jerry and Sheila gave me...he almost got the best of me, but I finally showed him who is boss! Don't forget you can click on the picture to make it bigger so you can see me in full gummer mode!

Adios East Coast

It was time for me to leave the East Coast the other day, but I had a great time hangin in Newport News with two of my favorite peeps (keep in mind I have MANY favorite peeps, so no jealously, people) :) !

Donta make my blue eyes brown

Dr. L. says my eyes can change colors all the way up until I'm two years old, but I'm thinking they're looking awfully blue right now!

Bob and Carol (no Ted and Alice)

We got a great visit from some dear friends back in Newport News before we left for New York...Bob and Carol Smith! They have known my mommy since she was just a few years older than me. I'm so glad they were able to come over from Bull Island to meet me!

Life in the city

Hey everybody...sorry I've been offline for a while. I've been busy road tripping and then I had some technical difficulties with Dad's computer. Anyway, I'm back! I went to Granny Jess' house in Brooklyn where I got a visit from my new friend MacAllister and his mom and dad, Seth and Jen. Steve came over to say hello, too, and I really enjoyed hanging out on his lap! A couple of days later we went up to Aunt Fress, Uncle Mark and cousin Hunter's house in Goldens Bridge. They had a very nice get together for me where I met lots of friends and family like Great Uncle John and my cousin Zoe. We had so much fun!
