Crunch! Like that.

To Eat or Not?

Definitely To Eat. Isaac ate his first real deal food. This was the first. Saturday Night. Rice. He ate all I fixed. Not sure how much it was.....just "wingin' it".

This was the second. Monday. Prunes. Thought it might "help" him a little. I think he liked them because he ate half the container. We'll see if that was too much tomorrow. I know....bibs...use bibs. Is that what you are thinking? The feedings have been spurt of the moment and I haven't brought the bibs downstairs yet. Soon. Very soon. Who knows what and when he will get more food????

These were just cute pictures from Father's Day. (We spent the day at my parents and then out to eat with the fam: Grandaddy, Judy, and her kids.)

Round em up for diaper changing. I missed the shot, but at one point, they both were looking at me with their feet up in the air while holding their toes. It made me smile big.

One of my friends invited us to an open gym for kids. We've been a few Fridays in a row. Olivia has really had a good time there: tampolines, foam blocks, slide, bouncy floor, etc. OK....and Dad had a really fun time too when he went!

Chronicles Of A Vibrating 2 Year Old


Several days ago Olivia and I (Dadda) are making a breakfast smoothie. She's standing on the counter next to the blender and dropping in the fruit, etc. I turn the blender on and the mixing begins.... Olivia looks at me with a smile, hands on her belly and says, "It's vibrating me Dadda." In total amazement of her ability to insert the word vibrate correctly in conversation (and much less say the word clearly), I respond with some laughter, "Yes it is vibrating you."

Vibrate - Take 2 -

So we're all at the mall and I've got Olivia in the stroller and Tami is somewhere else with Isaac. I'm looking for a new pair of shoes and Tami is trying to call me. Olivia is laying back in the car seat and suddenly sits up and in the most curious voice says, "Dadda, what's that vibrating me?" I look at her just as curious trying to figure out what in the world she was talking about. I soon realized my phone wasn't in my pocket, but in the cup holder of the stroller set on 'vibrate only'.

Sitting here writing this post I realized that she learned the word from those small stationary infant seats that vibrate. She turns it on and off for Isaac and her dolls frequently. It's amazing when and how they pick things up!!!

Stomping Mad

Here's the background to the video. Olivia, Tami, and I are all in the living room and Olivia is drinking a glass of milk. She tries to have us take her drink all the time when she's done instead of putting it down somewhere appropriate on her own. Tami tells her to take it to the kitchen and put it on he table. Not the response Olivia was looking for. So she heads off to the kitchen stomping and cry-whining, but stops every few feet to show her disapproval. The video catches only the tail end of it, but you'll get the idea....I (Justin) didn't do a very good job of being serious through the whole thing, but after watching, you can see why.....oh, and Tami is on the other end of the camera with a big 'ol smile on her face not making a peep....she's not innocent either! :) Simply hilarious!!! Wish we were able to capture the whole thing. I'll be grinning at this one for years. Enjoy!

Popsicle

Olivia has been practicing eating popsicles this summer. This one is a Breyers real fruit juice one...bursting with flavor. I think you can tell just how much flavor is in them from the video. Oh, and Luci gets to eat the sticks when we are done.

The Big Roll

Isaac rolled over for the first time! Three times!! (I missed the first one, just heard his head go "bonk". Got the 3rd one on video.) This is not the picture of The Big Roll however. This is what happens when Nana and Gramp send Olivia stickers in the mail. He He.

'Two' Cute!

I took this shot today of Isaac and Tami and had to share. He's getting pretty big. I fed him a bottle after we got inside and he downed 8 ounces of milk. He sure eats more and weighs more than Olivia did. Down for the count.
