4 and 1/2 months

i am a pooping machine! i've been pooping into my clothes the last 3 days and i like it! poor ma-ma has to do extra laundry!

ma-ma started taking me to a baby class at glendale community college and i pooped twice there in 1 hour! ma-ma thinks i'm secretly trying to skip class!




the exercise saucer sure gives me a good workout!






i've also recently found my lower lip... it tastes yummy!




my first pool party at auntie jessica's. i think i like swimming!



auntie jessica has a huge lion at her house! i'm glad it doesn't bite!




i also had another playdate with reese (in brown) and tatum (in red)!



i was a good boy and shared my fun saucer with tatum!

month 4

4 months is a big milestone for me... i can sleep longer and i eat only 4 meals now! actually i've been doing that a week before my 4 month birthday!

i'm also taller than my cuddle cubby mat!




i also like to play in my exersaucer (even though it tires me out!) and try standing and going for walks in the evening!

happy father's day

happy first father's day, da-da! my present to da-da was a good night's sleep! i slept for 10.5 hrs last night so da-da didn't have to check up on me! i hope i can do it again tonight!

da-da enjoyed a nice brunch at a restaurant with a jazz band and his favorite breakfast -- eggs benedict with crabcake!



ma-ma and i got da-da a gelato cake... mmm looks yummy!

fun with Ronin!

Hey everyone! Daddy here--finally!

First off, much love to Mommy for always updating Ronin's blog. Mommy's definitely the responsible one when it comes to taking pictures and remembering dates and such things.

Since Daddy hasn't been updating or blogging regularly, at least I'll try to add a little extra flavor to the pics I post. And with that said...

Here is a little series of photos I put together of Ronin (this is from late April). I think it's pretty self-explanatory. And, yes, his shirt says, "Trouble is my middle name."


Also, thanks to the keen observation powers of my friend Elan, I mocked up a potential Halloween costume for Ronin this year. This is from a pic that my godbrother Jerry took but that I did some slight tweaking on. Can you guess who he's supposed to be?


The only catch is that this will only work if Ronin stays just as round and just as bald in five months as he is currently. In case you haven't figured it out yet:



Halloween costume option #2, per Auntie Jessica's most excellent suggestion, is to go as Kuato from TOTAL RECALL (Daddy, of course, would play the outer shell--George--to Ronin's Kuato). That would be a pretty complicated costume, though, if done right.
