Pictures of the Boy

It's snow!

Smiling like a goon.

He's a saucy boy.

He is doing good. Letting his Momma know when he needs to be changed. We went to the dentist and he freaked (It was bad timing) and so we're going again in a week for a happy visit.

The dentist did say that his teeth were bad and wants to do something for them, but if Matey can't behave then he'll recommend us to a Children specific dentist.

In hopes of getting Matey to co-operate with the nice man we play dentist every day after brushing our teeth. I let him poke in my mouth and then I get to look and poke in his. He thinks it's great fun so hopefully next time will be a breeze.

This dentist lives like 3 blocks from us so super easy to get to and I'm sure the guy he would recommend us to is not as close.

twas the night before christmas

Tinsel moves when you blow it!

Clapping for joy!

Putting ornaments on the tree.

He's so good and careful.

the stockings are hung by the window with care.

tomorrow's post will be christmas- it's practically here!

Sorry for the lack of posting while we were out and about over the holidays but we have lots of good footage to make up for it.

So about posting everyday...

I should re-name him Calvin (as in hobbes). He would be adorable and then sense the camera on him and screw his face up. While talking to myself I said "you just have to shut your eyes don't you?" he heard me and then refused to open his eyes at all whatsoever.

But at least he's smiling.... mostly...

I was trying to get him to open his eyes. He kept stabbing himself in his eye while saying the word instead.

Getting ready in the morning about to brush our teeth.

Helping move the laundry basket.

He's so helpful, won't even let me lift a finger.

I think this is the one where I said the thing about his eyes.

Matey is the best pusher.

He looks nekkid but wants you to know that he's not.

And last but not least- the most open he felt like showing his eyes this morning.

These are all fresh from today and there are lots to help make up for the fact that I was delinquent. Sorry about that.

Matey and thePirate

So here are some pictures of Matey and thePirate being reunited. When thePirate came back in Sep. Matey took to him like a duck to water- it was amazing and wonderful.

thePirate came in at like 1 or 2 am and so this is much later in the day. We went out for breakfast.

This is Matey looking at all the other kids who were also waiting for their daddies. A few of them would play with him, but they were mostly anti-new comers.

Another picture from breakfast.

Thats all for now!

Matey just came up and saw what I was doing and shouted "Dada!" He's so cute.
