Meet Curious George

George has been recruited to assist Clifford in joining our parenting team. So, Cliffy is on part-time since he has made it through the wash a couple thousand times and is looking a bit ratty :)

Mohawk Man

Many people at our church have commented on how they like Stinker's mohawk. They thought I have been cutting it this way! But I am happy to say this all-naturaaaaal :)

New Camera

So we had to break down and buy a big, fancy, camera that neither of us know how to operate solely for the purpose of capturing those many precious moments we experience daily as we watch our little one exploring his world.

We had a picnic by the harbor and ocean for the chilly afternoon and practiced using the camera. Our poor little guy will prolly be blind with all the pics we keep taking of him!

Here are some pics of him playing in his crib (just another excuse to use the camera).

Baby's First Halloween!

We went to our friend's house and got the kiddos together in costume. We all happened to have a bit of an animal theme going...a giraffe, a monkey, and our little bumblebee :)

The night was a bit overwhelming for the little animals (as you can tell) from the pics but what a blast anyway!

Oh So Proper

So our little guy is into crossing his ankles now...he even did it in the tub tonight! Its hilarious when he does it. Here are a couple pics:

Stinker is such a good baby, I love cuddling with him in the mornings after his breakfast we read stories in mama and daddys bed under the fluffy down comforter :) Today he held a book in his hands for the first time - it was one about colors and another about animals. He is still working on controlling his hand movements so when he took the book from me, he whapped himself in the head with it and then gave me a dirty look :)

Dentist Day

Today I had my first dentist appointment since having the bay-bah and I wasnt sure how it was going to go with a little one...but true to his nature it went GREAT!

Our sweet receptionist hung-out with our little guy for about 40 minutes while I was in the back getting x-rays and my teeth cleaned. I left him in his carseat (which he HATES) during his naptime....how was I supposed to know what his schedule was going to be 6 months ago when I set up the appointment??? But either way I wouldn't blame him for crying and being crabby but when I walked out to the front, the receptionist was swinging back and forth on her swivel chair with the baby in her arm and he was in heaven :)

She said he didn't cry at all, just sat with her loving being held. I am so thankful for such a sweet, content, smily baby boy!
