The other blog

Day at the park and 7 month post on the other blog. Leave a comment if you want added.

Day at the Park

Cait met me on the way home from class at the park and we had a picnic of salmon salad and played on the jungle gym. Some of the pictures are blurry. That is either because the camera was dropped in the salad, or the camera just couldn't handle the specialness of the moment.

 

This video is sideways but worth it:

Before:

After:

Not really an aesthetic decision, more of a practical one: Honor code and Egypt sun.

Camera?

We are thinking about buying a DSLR camera. Any suggestions? We need something that is easy to figure out, affordable, and portable.

7 Months!

Oh man... 7 months! Where has the time gone? Atticus is still the cutest and greatest baby we know. He is happy, healthy, and just plain fun to be around. This month has brought with it our first bouts of sickness (I blame the vaccinations we've been injecting into him), and let me tell you, that was NOT COOL. First, he had roseola and then RSV. A whole thing of baby Tylenol and a borrowed vaporizer later, we've overcome. On to new and better things with the warm weather creeping on in.

At 7 months, Atticus loves:

- Trying to make out with mom. I guess he gets it from dad, but he is always eating my face.
- Showers with dad.
- Swinging at the park.
- Bouncing, bouncing, bouncing... still.
- FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD. Sweet potatoes, asparagus, salmon, potatoes, peas, apples, bananas, etc.
- The laptop.
- Scooting around, especially to get the laptop.
- Dance parties.
- Aunt Allison.
- Sticks. He can hold one all the way home from campus.
- Arabic class.
- Forward-facing in the Moby/Sleepy Wrap.


Atticus hates:

- Medicine.. DIE DIE DIE little syringe.
- Sleeping longer than one hour at night without having some milk.
- Wearing clothes and diapers.
- Getting stuck when he's crawling around.
- The nose sucky bulb thing (does that even HAVE a name?)

I said sexualize on TV

Went to a link so the video wouldn't play every time you pull up the site.

Don't tell Tim...

but I just made this his facebook profile picture.

Potentially

We will potentially be on the news. ABC4 at 6 or 10 tonight.

Just a heads up.

Will post later on interview for those who miss it.

Baby-led weaning: The sequel

Do you ever...

feel like you should do exciting things just so you have something to blog about? I do. I wish I didn't. Or rather, I wish I did so many exciting things that it wasn't anything I could worry about.

Good night.
