Water, Water Everywhere...

We went to the pool last weekend.  It was a little chilly for him at first.  You could see him somewhat grimace at the cold, but know he wanted to be in the pool.  We both got used to it.

Can you tell he loves the pool?

I mean, really loves the pool.

We spiked his hair again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We got season passes to the aquarium so we took a trip down there with GiGi and Rowan.

Here we are waiting outside.  It is usually busy, but the trick is to go in the morning and only look at the large displays.  We spent 2 hours inside.

Rowan wanted to see Deepo, but then got really scared when she went up close.  I love her face.

We were in the tropical area when they were feeding the fish.  One of the divers stopped to say hello.

The leopard shark wanted to say hello.  

Art is looking at the "Ocean Voyager" tank.  According to the site, it is "the second largest viewing window in the world at 23 feet tall by 61 feet wide and 2 feet thick."  There is plenty to look at and you can be there for hours.

The sea otters were actually playful this time. They usually sleep when we are there so it was exciting to watch them play.  Art is trying to get a closer look.

Goodbye aquarium!  Hopefully we'll see you soon!

Self Feeding and Improptu Baths

I have let him feed himself more recently. He is a slow eater so we have to be patient with mealtimes. You can imagine how many impromtu baths we have had recently.

Frozen blueberries seem to be his favorites.  When we went to the store the other day and I reached in the freezer to get them, he shuddered with excitement and also gave a little squeal. 

 After being a short order cook at breakfast, I have found out that he doesn't like eggs.  He usually drops everything for the dog.

The vegetable soup was a big hit. Veggie chunks were soft and perfect for the little guy. I let him pick them up, but I also fed him the ground beef.

The soup part was a little messy though.

Here are his fingernails after eating blueberries at snacktime.

Brian and I had a good laugh at this picture that I took. He has a potbelly.

Tiny naked butt!

Good Night, Atlanta!

He is practicing so he can be the next Jimmy Chamberlain (Smashing Pumpkins drummer for all you non-fans).

He's Ready For Summer Picnics

This is hilarious! I always try to give him bite sized pieces of watermelon, but he never eats them. I tried giving him a hunk and here's what happened:

The sounds make me cringe. You can imagine the stains I am battling on his onesie.

Happy Friday!

I can't believe I keep forgetting to post about his new teeth. The bottom two came in about 2 weeks ago. It was rough, but we're through it. I now think the top ones are getting close. He has been cranky pants for the past 2 days.

Clap Your Hands

He finally picked up clapping! He doesn't really mimic you, but if you ask him to clap, he'll start right up.

Enjoy our Randomness

I haven't put up pictures in a while so here is just a bunch of random shots from the past few weeks.

Here he is again acting like the starved animal at the petting zoo.

This picture doesn't show it too well, but his belly was huge after I fed him. He's fat and happy here. He's also riding in his big boy carseat now.

We are bringing these pacifiers to a friend and I wanted to see if he knew what to do with them. He put it in his mouth and sucked on it for a bit, but then it fell out.


Spike's back! We had a pool playdate. I decided to spike his hair after he got out of the water.

He loves the pool, too. This float is the best! It kept him out of the water, but he could still play while touching the water. I didn't have to worry about keeping him afloat either.

Rowan is loving her popsicle. We tried to give him a taste, but he wanted nothing to do with it.

One of our favorite shirts.

Vacuuming Nanny's carpet with Gigi.

He LOVES bathtime. He would climb over the tub if he could. This was an impromptu bath because he got food in his hair.

He moves around more so we need to keep him contained. Unfortunately, it keeps Morgan out as well. Poor puppy gets left out.
