Good afternoon, all. It's a cloudy day here in Boston and Team Anders has settled in for a relaxing afternoon after our early morning hike and trip to the store. Jace has his standard 8 games on the TV and his fantasy football sheets strewn about the coffee table, Easton's down for his afternoon nap and I just finished making some butternut squash risotto (and it's pretty yummy even though I forgot to buy some parmesan cheese at the store).
I love my Daddy!!
This week was pretty uneventful but we did go to the doctor for Easton's six-month wellness exam and shots. I updated his stats on his Watch Me Grow...6 months page if you're curious. He's definitely making progress with sitting up on his own and is now beginning to really make distinct one syllable sounds...favorite at this point is 'ba' followed by the endless spit-flinging raspberry! :)
Check me out world...changing my view of this place
Love how the flash really brings out all the puke on Karen's nice quilt :( Haven't kicked this spit-up thing yet
On my way down...
Practicing for A Christmas Story
The first two clips on the video (learning to sit and Jumperoo) are from about 2 weeks ago but the last clip was from yesterday...made me laugh so I had to share. Enjoy...
Fa, la, la, la, laaa...la, la, la, la. Christmas decorating came a bit early this year but we wanted to be adequately prepared for Uncle Jeff's arrival tomorrow -- and also, Easton is lovin' him some Christmas...and Santa...and talking about presents...which, in turn, allows us to talk about him being good for Santa and said presents. "No, Mom, I got this" I obviously got dressed up for the occasion...honestly, as long as the Christmas tree hat is on I could care less what I'm wearing. :) A quick little stroll down memory lane. Love you, Gramie! E putting his "First Christmas" ornament up Just a little nostalgia -- this is the chair we did all his monthly shots in And a bonus shot (thanks for sticking around so long). Little man's toe nail is no where to be found. So strange. You're welcome, E. Love, Mom.
We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
Considering the World Series may come to a conclusion soon I figured I should get these photos up while baseball's still being played. Though he's not throwin' from the mound with his left (yet) he is definitely a natural left-hand batter. Daddy and Grapes are stoked.
Oh so cute you guys! He is so smiley and happy!
