Some pics of E


What a tasty finger...

E always beams when he sees the "soft baby rabbit" in the book, though I didn't capture it here.

He also smiles and laughs at baby pictures (in a joyous, non-mocking way), whether they're his own or pictures of Liz's baby on Facebook. He has a new habit of yelling "Dada!" at men who look nothing like D (an Indian man in Massachusetts, a Mexican man at a sandwich shop). Fortunately, they were amused.

I changed my mind about Disney World. I'm not sure I'm up for a vacation with a baby. D was understanding.

I like that there's a possibility that E could laugh in a mocking way--take that, other babies! I saw a baby over the weekend who was quite drawn to one of the other men in the room because both his dad and this guy had on red shirts.

That's interesting because Mom has a theory that E likes red. Maybe all babies do...

Funny you mention that about Disney World. Mark's whole family is going next week. We are not, as you well know, but I think I would wait till N is old enough to enjoy it...and till little brother is too. :) Maybe in a couple of years. But for this year, i think we'll rent a cottage in Maine!

Curly hair! Lucky boy.

L loves other babies, too. And he adores looking at himself in the mirror, too, though I guess he doesn't yet realize it's his own reflection.

his hair is just now starting to curl. it was straight for a while, which was genetically puzzling since mine is wavy and d's is curly....

His little curls are adorable!

So was D as understanding about his son calling other men "Dada" as he was about the vacation? lol

E has the cutest smile. And I love the "tasty finger" picture. He shows a lot of personality.

Bearette, your letter is R (I play fair--no Qs, Zs, or Xs).

Vegetable personalities

At the risk that you'll all think I'm nuts...but heck. I was getting cauliflower ready for dinner and it occurred to me that vegetables have different personalities. In my mind, anyway. Zucchini: the most agreeable of vegetables. It blends in with everyone, but it's never obsequious or false to itself. Sweet potatoes: the grandmother of vegetables. Very cozy and welcoming. Cauliflower: kind of bland, devoid of personality, but it could surprise you sometimes. Like a dull guy who occasionally tells a funny joke at the water cooler. Broccoli: feisty. Like a terrier. Spinach: kind of dour, but a loyal friend. Kale: has a fierce sense of individuality, but like spinach, is a loyal friend. Kale's affections last for life. Corn: this one is kind of a party animal. Corn is still drinking beer and making a mess when you'd like to be closing up. Tomatoes: a little sloppy. The kind of vegetable that needs to be reminded to tuck its shirt into its pants. Cabbage: not invited t

The return of Rudolph

Rudolph is our small furry friend, whom I've never seen. He visited the kitchen last night while D was up late. I know this because: 1) A large sonic device is plugged in right in front of the crack between the oven and the wall. The sonic devices in the living room have kept Rudolph away from there, his previous hideaway. Apparently the cracks between appliances and the wall are harder to reach. 2) The mop has been moved from the hall closet to the kitchen closet. This means D tried to capture Rudolph. 3) A turtle magnet I haven't seen in a while is now on the fridge. That means it fell behind the oven and D found it during his interactions with Rudolph. (I am praying hard that Rudolph is a boy, since we don't want to find many small Rudolphs.) What makes me feel better about this whole thing is that mice are apparently everywhere this winter; even my brother has had problems with them. And this little guy seems to stay behind the oven and only appears around 4 am (only D

happy birthday e!

[Posted by Bearette's husband until she has Internet access] e was born today! 8 pounds even, a cute and healthy baby boy. He likes to stick out his tongue just a little, and move his mouth around. The hospital gave him a little white hat with a purple pom pom. Bearette is tired but happy. Pictures soon.
