Edit to my previous post

David is VERY good at eating most table foods.

Christopher JR is learning to eat table foods.

I stand corrected.

(better honey??) :)

The Wing Man Band

David does a majority of bath times and bed times. It's when I get dinner started for the two of us. This will hopefully change once david is eating all table foods and we can eat together as a family. So back to bath time. David is great at it and he and Junior usually have a great time. I was lucky enough to get this on video... fun times.

I love my son

He is just so entertaining and fun to watch.

Case in point:

11 Months Old!

11 months old... I can't believe it. He'll be 1 year old too soon!










Ok, I'm done, I'm outta here...

Happy Grandparents Day

Yes, a little late, but the photos were TAKEN on Grandparents day!


Junior loves his grandparents!! All Six of them!! Six... don't make me count the aunts and uncles!


Look, I made this sign, just for my grandparents...


This is sooo much fun, can we do it again tomorrow?





















I love my son, he loves his ducky and pacifier.

Whistle while you work....

Since he has thrown ALL of the other toys out of his pack n play, all that's left is his ball. He tries soooo hard... you are just rooting for him the whole time... come on... you can do it, almost there... you got it.. oh...

Rubber ducky you're my friend...

Christopher has 3 different rubber ducks. His latest one was a last minute gift while he and mommy were grocery shopping and she needed a "distraction".

Wing family, meet Fireducky...



He is joining the ranks of other duckies including Easter Ducky (nice big ears for teething babies) and the regular bath tub ducky that squeaks. Rubber duckies have become the ideal teething toy... love it.


Christopher deciding between the duck and the dog bed. Two perfectly viable choices to him. (He later chose the dog bed, luckily Cody doesn't use it very often.)


And artsy photo mommy took with the camera. Once I saw it I realize he looked like a prison inmate with the strips and the mohak.

Christopher with his Grandma and Grandpa Angelo...

We went to the Greek Festival where Christopher had his first bites of Greek food. Then he napped at Grandma and Grandpas while mommy and daddy snuck out to see a movie. It was so nice to get out of the house (which was for grocery shopping or work). We ended up having dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's. The photos below are right before bedtime, a nice relaxing...sleep preparing... play time on the bed.

PJs and Toys

In the last few weeks, Christopher has begun playing by himself so much better. It makes it much easier for us to get stuff done around the house on the weekend, like chores, or just standing over my son taking a kazillion photos...


What mom? I'm playing...


With the dog...


He LOVES this blue ball. He got this toy tree with the three balls that go in it... he's all about the blue ball.


See... he has hair, just very fine, very light...


And these are getting much more use...


Occasionaly he stops to pose for a photo. I love his teeth. That missing top tooth has just come through.


I won't tell you what was happening here... I'll just say there was some minor grunting involved.


Loved the light on this photo...


My pensive baby...

Good nap???

It was so warm this particular weekend so we kept Junior in light clothes. He looks so tough in his sleevless shirt. This was right after his nap...

I love that he wakes up and will just play in his crib. He has a blanket now in his crib. After bedtime or naptime it always gets folded and put of the back of the crib on the right. When he wakes up it is ALWAYS in a pile in the crib. He loves it. He obviously also loves the ugly, no shade, light in his room.

Watching that brain work..

Christopher is such fun to watch. It's even better to watch him as he figures out things. Toys that were just paper weight weeks ago are now toys. He's learning to put things into other things (even though they don't always go together). He loves to drop his toys out of his "corral" and pack n play (but never throws things out of his crib). Here is a photo and a few videos of him. There are 4 videos in order, long, but again, just fun to watch him play.


In his new onesie from Kauai. Christopher is multitasking with all of his toys.
