Home boy

I love this hat!

And yes, he has a cut on his face. I swear I file that boy's nails every other day. He has insanely fast growing nails. What can I say? OK, I gotta go file his nails now.

Gadgets and Gizmos

Since he is starting to hold on to objects and can hold his head up and make eye contact, I've begun to break out all the fun things we've either received as gifts or bought. Some things he loves, some things he's not ready for yet. Case in point. I saw my friend Shannon's blog that she was using her little be pod seat (or what ever it's called . . . we have a lot of things. A lot of things that have a lot of "cute" names). Granted, Shannon's daughter Eliza is two weeks older than Finn, but he was SO not ready for this thing. He also wasn't really in to the rattle thing I had on his wrist for that matter. He was pretty much just pissed off at me.

Loving the (still nameless) bear.

Two months old. 7/23/08

He's 11 lbs and 12 ounces of cuteness.

Our new discovery

I figured out today that if I put this little bear on his head he falls alseep immediately.

The Girl and Finn

We had a great time in Virginia but it's time for me to head back to New York and go back to work this week. *sigh*

The Boys

Daddy told Finn a joke Finn telling Daddy a joke
"Quick, Mommy's coming. Pretend we're not doing anything" "What . . . .?"

Virginia - parting shots

The Robbins - Old Town, AlexandriaAunt Liz

Grandpa

Also bad. . . .?

So maybe putting the changing table against the TV at my parents house is not the best choice? However . . . however, and hear me out people, he was learning about diversity.

This is bad, right?

I know, I know. I shouldn't let Joey get in the car seat with the baby. OK. I'll put a stop it.

Grandpa time - Puppet Show at Glen Echo

Grandpa and Finn in awe of one another.

"Wait, did you say something about puppets"?

Mommy and Finn

He has discovered he has a tongue. Shortly thereafter I discovered he's been drooling down my back. I guess it's time to pull out the burp-towel-over-the shoulder thing

Virginia

We're hangin' in Virginia this week while Todd goes off to make tainted and greasy money at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal, then goes off to spend that tainted and greasy money in Vegas.

Grandma time

Despite those very charming grump faces, Finn loves him some Grandma time. And mommy loves giving him to Grandma during the grump face moments.

Bryant Park

Todd played piano in Bryant Park all last week. Finn and I went to visit on Monday and Wednesday. We also saw a lot of friends who dropped by. It was great!

The many faces of . . .

He's starting to figure out he can make different facial expressions and it's freaking hilarious.

"Ummm . . .way over-stimulated, people"

OK , let's come back to Times Square - never. Thank you very much.

Feeling better!

Sick

Poor baby. He has had a fever for the past few days and just does not feel well. We've been to the pediatrician three times since Monday. It's appears that it's just a virus and nothing serious. He had blood drawn at two of the visits. He was not a happy camper.
