My Friend Adrian

Willard Park, Berkeley. My Mom's friend from Pre-Natal Yoga, Francoise. I hugged everyone at the park and picked a nice boy to be my big brother for the afternoon. I love playing with the big kids.

Grandma Maria

Feeds me all day long. I love it!

Hesitation

Sometimes he jumps right in and sometimes not!

Waxing Nostalgic

With many of my friends and family having babies or getting ready to have them, I am waxing nostalgic...for the sweetness, not the crying and sleepless nights! Can't believe how big our little bird is now. He has recovered fully and is eating non-stop to make up for last week. Here's a sample of what I mean by 'non-stop':
3 Morning Star sausages, 2 waffles, 1 hash brown, 1 cup of Cheerios, 16 oz. of whole milk, endless amounts of Newman's Own Cinammon Cookies throughout the day, one in each hand at all times, 1 cup of applesauce, 3 dolmas, 1 cup of organic vegetable lentil soup, 1 slice of turkey, 1/4 cup of hummus with bread, TWO ENTIRE BRIOCHES FROM THE CHEESBOARD, and finally 1 slice of pizza from The Cheesboard.
Now we know why the kid nursed every two hours for the longest time!

Guess Who's Back Causing Trouble?

Dinnertime

Can't wait to see him eating ike a gorilla again.

Shoe Sculpture

No new pics as Ian has been sick for the past 4 or 5 days. He has lost a pound and has a rash all over as a result of the fever he had. Didn't want to scare the grandparents! He seems to be getting better, though.

More Sitting

Fever-Boo.

Favorite word "no"

Everything is "no, no, no" right now. So I look back at the sofa after my last post to see this...climbed up to the sofa all by himself. Well, at least he's sitting down while he says "no", now.
Low fever past few days. Maybe that's why the interest in sitting.

Fridge Art

Made at Habitot Museum.

De Young Museum

Not sure what all the faces are about, but it was fun!
