Now that's a great grandma!

Dad's "Grandma Rex" and Auntie Chris came down from Seattle for a visit this last weekend. We got along swell. Everyone went over to Aunt Amy and Uncle Brad's house on Saturday night to celebrate Amy's birthday.

Ha ha! You're funny looking, Dad!

Get out of my shot, woman...I'm the star here!

Breaking News Update

As you might expect, Ian was not content with that whole 2-3 steps at a time thing. He is getting more confident every day and he can now walk halfway across the family room (when he feels like it).

We also got some cool new wellies!

What is this, baby jail?

Dad set up the pack'n'play in the family room so I would be, quote, "contained" and he could, quote, "get some stuff done". It's not so bad.

It tastes good

And it feels funny on my face

Oink oink!
It's time to call Mama!

Heyyyyy

The little monkey can walk!

He's taken a total of 10 steps unassisted this week (mostly 2 in a row, once 3).

Lock up your daughters.

blinded by the light

Mama is an artiste and I am her muse. If muse means "one who is blinded by the light of many camera flashes"...

9 month dr visit

Went to the doctor's this morning for my nine-month checkup. Dr. V. says I'm very cute and doing great.

Mom and Dad both went with me because mom decided to go to work late. They both thought I weigh at least 25 pounds but I proved them wrong...I'm only 22 pounds! Mom thinks maybe I usually have 3 pounds of poop in my diaper and maybe that's why they were fooled.

I am only in the 80th percentile for weight which is a good place to be, I think. Healthy but not fat. I'm still about 60th percentile for height at 28.5 inches. Got a big head, too. Am at almost 100th percentile. I think those other babies just don't watch Baby Einstein like I do - my head has got to be so big because I'm so smart, right?....right?
