Garbled Talks!

Ok it's me again back for more breaking news. Dateline England: Baby says "Dada." Yes, her first word is "dada" Which obviously means she's aware of the art movement of the same name.

And more evidence...

Notice she says "uh huh" at the end.

Next word we are teaching her, "antidisestablishment" or "mama."

Back to you Shannon...

little baba ghanoush

It's getting cold around here...brrrr! So we had to bundle Renee up in a little snowsuit to go for a walk today. She reminds me of the boy on A Christmas Story when his mom bundles him up so much he can barely move.

look at those little teefers! She is so cute you have to kiss her!

let's go!!

look at who's

learning to sit up!

she still falls over a bit like a drunken soldier, so we have to surround her with pillows.
she sends kisses to everyone!
Happy Thanksgiving.

It's about Time!

Finally, I have picked up the baton and started posting entries to this blog! Shannon is such a fine writer and I am often too busy downloading Cops for her TV habit.

OK, you want new pictures of Renee? Well I've got 'em! I just sterilized some bottles and she is off for a little nap so I can now post these for you:

I got two toofus!

Me, Mommy and my new monkey.

I love my Mommy but I love my monkey too.

Dad, put down the camera and let's go for a walk already.

time to pee?

boys and girls,

i have gone from the expansive space-time of maternity leave head first into the compressed time-space of writing a dissertation and applying for jobs. For updates you will have to appeal to mr. mom whose email is (his first name) @cellis.net

We still love you lots and lots and lots.

Shan, Renee & Charles
