EJ in His Big Boy Sleeper

Buddy Too is in his big boy sleeper above, tired and about to fall asleep. Though it is for a 9 month old, it is still snug around his massive thighs.

Oh, and by the way, happy 6 months old today kids!

Liesel wants to know where her cupcake is. Not yet dear. You'll get one in another six months!

Merry Christmas

"Its my first Christmas. How do we celebrate in this family?"

Dad, "We don't."

"Say what!?"
Dad, "Just teasing Bugaboo."

Merry Christmas

"Have you heard of this Santa fella?"

"Mom n' Dad are leveraging him to bribe
good behavior from us."

"Oh no! I am sunk. What will I do now?"

Merry Christmas

 "Hi you!" "Hi back at ya!"

 "I'm hungry." "And she's tired."

"You don't need to tell them everything. Take That."

Merry Christmas

Naughty...

...or nice?

Adorable either way.

Why So Few New Posts?

REGULAR readers will have noticed the dearth of new posts. It is because Dad has been using his time to put together Christmas gifts for family. He cannot reveal at this time exactly what it is (wouldn't want to spoil the surprise), but here is a clue.

Savvy readers might be able to put together some clues from previous posts and guess what it is correctly. All will be revealed December 25th.

Hmmm, is Dad indulging early in Christmas spirits? Does he really not know the current year? No, he knows the current year, but the album art above is going on the cover of the contents of the gift.

Update: Cause and Effect

 WOW the New Family Dad has been busy getting gifts ready for the giving. He's been so busy he hasn't had a chance to post anything new in a while.

Buddy Too reaches for the yellow button and...

...delights with glee at the light and sound.

This is a big important moment for Buddy Too, a.k.a EJ. He was slower than his sister to learn cause and effect but he is quickly catching up. He now tests that yellow button every time he is put in the Exer-saucer.

Yep, still works Buddy, and will as long as Dad keeps the batteries fresh.

Wait until he discovers that the red apple, green pear, and orange orange light up and make noise too.

Update: He quickly discovered the other buttons a few days later. Dad was in the kitchen when he "Pear, one green pear."
