Sean had his first attempt at eating spaghetti the other day. It wasn't nearly as messy as we had expected. He was actually fairly successful at getting it into his mouth!

Just kidding. It isn't quite cold here yet. We took Sean to the park today to let him play in the river - mostly for the photo-op. But he was a little tired so we didn't get much. But the previous day, Lori had him try on his new winter outfit - including stylish little hat - and caught a couple of Kodak moments. Doesn't he look so evil in the last picture?

We are having such a beautiful day here! It is about 70 degrees, with a steady, 10+ mph wind. We've got all the windows open - for the first time since May. It was actually cold enough outside to require pants for Lori and me, and long sleeves for Sean. In fact, it's chilly enough in the house right now (just after dark), that I am thinking of putting on a warmer shirt. I love it!

Here are some pics of Sean's daily workout. It always amazes me when he goes up on his hands and toes like that. It's not a quick thing, either. He can hold himself like that for a while. I'm not sure what he is trying to do, exactly - but it's cute.

Lori and Sean were just hanging out today, and took some cute pictures. You can't see it in these pictures, but Sean is getting his third tooth! I can feel the point of it coming through his gums.

He gives me the chocolate cake!

It's a week of firsts! Sean got his first piece of cake today. When I gave him his first taste of chocolate frosting, he gave me the funniest look. Like a future alchoholic must look after their first taste of booze. He made a big mess, but he had a great time. If he wasn't in love with me already, he sure is now!

by the way, did anyone catch the Bill Cosby reference?

Sean has been in the news again, for better or worse....

Sean got his first ice cream cone today! John, Michelle and Christian came over for lunch, and brought an ice cream cake for dessert. On top of the cake were miniature ice cream cones, complete with ice cream inside. We gave one to Sean - it was the perfect scale for him! He loved it!

We went to the park to try out kite #4, but we didn't get any pictures of it before the batteries in the camera died. We did get some good pictures of Sean though.

We were sitting in the office tonight, just keeping the little man entertained. Lori started throwing the ball up in the air and catching it, and Sean went crazy! It was like someone told him the best joke he'd ever heard! Watch this short video to see what I mean...
