Baby art critic at D.C. Moore gallery

We went to the opening, then returned to the gallery a couple more times to see it all again. The little one has definite opinions and preferences already, and really enjoys looking at Grandpa Bob's paintings!

Play group

Now that he's old enough to enjoy interacting with other little ones, we're having baby playgroups with some of his buddies from swim class.

Helping in the kitchen

I needed to make dinner on kind of a tight schedule, with no one else home, and my little sous chef was very eager to be in the kitchen with me (rather than, say, take an afternoon nap). Here he is playing with the roasting pan and spaghetti squash skin after I scraped out the good stuff.

I especially wanted to post this picture for the friend who made the textile that's hanging directly behind him (which also hung on the wall as a focal point during childbirth).

5 teeth

I finally got a picture of some more teeth. All at once around Valentine's day he got three more coming in: on the bottom to the right of the original two, and the two top middle teeth.
