YAWN!

One of my other hobbies is YAWNING! It's so fun, really. I'd recommend it to anyone!

Breakfast

What I like in the morning is a nice breakfast -- maybe some eggs and toast...

...and some nice English Breakfast tea, Fortnum & Mason, of course!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to my New Yorker -- reading an article on the Turkmanbashi, who is a total nut! Ooh! Is that a cartoon about rabbits??

Towel Time

I love a nice bath, and maybe even better is drying off after! Here's me in my Cookie Monster towel, all snug as a bug in a rug!

Hi again! Nice and warm in here!

Goofing Around with the Camera

Here's Dad and me goofing around while Mom shoots some video.

My method acting.

This is me, practicing for a TV role -- maybe Aunt Arika and Aunt Cindy can get me a role. I think I'm pretty good, with the accent and all. And look how grumpy I look! Now, that's acting, baby!

'Round the House

Now that I'm over a month old (wow!), and getting pleasantly plumper by the minute (I'm over eleven pounds already!), I'm really branching out -- making occasional gurgles, smiling now and again, and even, at times, pulling myself up to seated! I'm even working on standing (though only with a lot of help.

Updating this post. Hmmm... What was that keyboard shortcut?

Smilin' at Mommy!

Though it does make me look like I'm wearing a babushka!

Well, all of that has really worn me out. Time for a nap on dad's hand....

My 1-Month Birthday!


Mom and Grandma took me to The Farm at South Mountain for a fancy lunch! I got to wear my tie-dye outfit that Grandmemim got me in Ithaca! I think it properly expresses my alignment with the liberal values espoused by the civil rights movement. Or at least that's what my Daddy says. I just like the colors, really. And I think I look very dignified with this expression!































Yay! I love the Grandma Chair! So much fun!




I'm pretty cute, no?

Chillin' with the Fam

Mom and I are very interested in world affairs. And Dad says I'm really a New Yorker, since both my parents are from there, not here in Arizona.

Dad likes to read to me. This is a really sweet book about rabbits!

Nice and cozy!
And another good nap spot!

Mmmmmm! One of my favorite meals!

Visit from Great Aunt Shelle and Great Uncle Jeff

We had a lot of fun!
And then sent pix to Grandma Mim to make her jealous!! :)

First Trip to the Zoo!

We all went to the Phoenix Zoo.

I slept in front of this exhibit....
and this one...
and it was Earth Day, and I slept through the special fanfare...
and Grandma Mim and Grandpa Did got be this great shirt, which I slept through, too... They tell me I had a great time. Maybe next time, I'll open my eyes at some point... I don't know, though. It seemed a great place for a nap!

Family Portrait

Here we all are! That's Grandpa Did and Grandma Mim and Dad and Mom. And I'm the little one.

Heading for Home!

These photos are from my first trip home! It was very exciting!
Dad buckled me in carefully.

Mom sat with me in the back seat. The ride was great!

This was when I first came home!

And then I met the cat, Mei Mei, who was very nice to me.

First Days

Dad's fingers are my fav!

Grandpa Did is really nice to me!

I love to sleeeeeep!
The world is a bit daunting....

But at least there's email to keep my connected to the world!

Waiting to be Born

These little baby hummingbirds were in a nest by Grandma Mim and Grandpa Did's condo when they were waiting for me to come along.


This was me when I was really young. I'm a lot older, now.
