Movie: Happy Thanksgiving

Jed is starting to "blow bubbles" (and subsequently drool) now, but refused to be so rude as to demonstrate his new trick on camera.

Introduction to family chores

Jed's weekend experience:

After a hearty breakfast it was off to do our family chores...

I decided to bring Mom with me this time, since it was my first real day of work


"Mom, are those really Bueni's ? "
All in all, I'd say it was a pretty productive day.

Snapshots of the past week

This photo reminds me a one of those posed elementary pictures. "Sit up straight, put your hands in your lap, and look at the camera." He's actually blowing bubbles in this picture. It's his latest trick.

"Uummm... Mom... Dad... Bueni's giving me the "lick-look" and I'm a sitting duck!"

We said goodbye to Leah this week as she has decided to move to Englewood to be closer to her church and have her own space. We will miss her greatly after 6 months of close support.

Colorado's first snow of 2008 (and Jed's too)

Jed was more fascinated with the snowmen on his fleece outfit than the actual snow on the ground.

Reaching, grabbing, eating

He's learning the joys of using his mouth more and more, and the usefulness that hands can be in that process!

Movie - Dad likes to eat my arm

Warming Jed up to the idea of being home alone with Dad...

Home alone, no Mom in sight

"WHAT?! What do you mean Mom' s not home? Are you crazy Mr. ?"


"Oh, you have a bottle. Well, why didn't you tell me in the first place?"


"Thanks for the new diaper Dad! I guess we're going to be good friends afterall."


Sunday was our first day without Mom's help. Tanya has returned to work part time, and Dad and Jed are trying to figure each other out. Fun times. Jed seems to be more comfortable with the bottle, thank you God.

Halloween blunder

Let's be honest, you would cry too if you didn't fit in to your snow-leopard Halloween costume. Especially if it was your Halloween debut.
