Big News from the Party Boat

In celebration of Carrie's birthday we spent the weekend at Apple Valley, enjoying the lake and good times with family. Some friends were kind enough to lend us their pontoon for the day, so Abe had his first boat ride...(click on photos for full-size)

Spoon Man

A few days shy of his 6-month "birthday", Abe tried rice cereal for the first time today. He's got the whole "open your mouth, insert spoon" thing down pretty well, it's just the swallowing part he still doesn't get. He takes a bite and then doesn't know what to do with it, so it just sits in his mouth until he spits it out to make room for the next bite. But considering his bloodlines, I have a feeling he'll be eating like a professional in no time.



Here's the video of the messy moment in history...

Happy 4th of July

Abe's first Comfest 2010

Abe experienced his first Community Fest this weekend. We got there early on Saturday morning in an effort to beat the heat and crowd. He seemed to love laying on his blanket staring up at the trees the most. Next year we'll introduce the corndogs and cream puffs. Much love to Pete and Shino who sent him this awesome outfit from Japan.

Fancy photos from mid-April 2010

Here are a few of the photos we had taken in our home by local photographer Lauryn Byrdy. As you can see, they turned out beautifully. We've got ourselves a good lookin' kid here.

I have no idea what's going on here, singing perhaps?
