Another Tooth!

Yep, the other front toother popped through last night. Hopefully we're done for awhile, because it's hell for poor Halen. I enjoy the extra snuggle time, but my floors are real dirty.

New Tooth

That's right, the front left tooth has broken through the gums and is ready to bite anyone who gets close... So watch out! I am not even going to attempt to take a picture, due to the extreme bite risk. Instead, I will post this picture of my hula hooping wonder.

Huh?

Yum, hairy nipples make the best milk. Dan needs to get with it and share in the joys of breastfeeding.

Breakfast Of Champions

I didn't even like whipped cream, but I like this stuff!
I gave Halen a bowl of oatmeal. He pulled it straight to his lap and went to town! Then he got disco fever and had to point up for a minute. Then back to oatmeal. He loves feeding himself now. He thinks he's getting too big to be spoon fed. His first words are going to be, "I can do it myself." Well, maybe that's far fetched, it'll probably be more like "dog" or "Bruce." Yes, the dogs are way more important that "momma" and "dadda." I have accepted that.

Pyros?

How come my baby is so cute???

8 Months

Halen turned 8 months old on Thursday. He weighed in at 24 pounds and is 31 inches long. He's just off the charts for weight and way off the charts for length. 31 inches is the length for an 11 month old in the 95th percentile.


It's a bird. It's a plane. It's Halen man!!!

Chocolate Silk

You know how it says "not to be used as infant formula" on your Silk containers??? Well, I always read that and thought, 'duh, who would give this to a baby?' Well, today I saw a woman pouring chocolate silk into a bottle, for a baby who was somewhere between 3 and 6 months old.
crazy!

A Little Ditty About Dogs And Babies

This morning Halen took a morning poop, and quite a large bit of poop it was. Usually, I immediately take the diapers to the toilet, shake the poop off, and flush it (cloth diapers you know). This morning, Halen was tired and needing to nurse and nap. So, I folded the diaper in half and laid it on the floor to get to it after I put him down for his nap. We came to the living room and played and nursed till he fell asleep. When I went back into his room to lay him down for his nap, the diaper was open and licked clean. Yummy!

Circus Baby!

It looks like he's having fun with his daddy, and he is, but he's really that happy because he's that much closer to THE FAN! Yep, his favoritest thing in the world, and he got to look right at it, eye level. Who wouldn't be that happy?

Just Having Some Fun

watching the laundry is always great fun!

Albequerquequeque

Halen and I went on a trip to Albequerque to visit my aunt Melanie and Puckett the cat. Everywhere we went, Halen had people awwwing at him. He really is such a handsome and pleasant baby. He adjusted to the dry climate just fine, but I had boogers in my nose that felt like razor sharp rocks. We went to Santa Fe one day and saw the Georgia O'Keefe museum. Halen let out a huge belch during the film. It was out of respect I'm sure. I had to take his pacifier away from him because he might "toss it" at the artwork. It's a good thing he's not that attached to it. He was good on the planes for the most part. He was slightly inconsolably crying for about 5 minutes once. That's not that bad, considering the amount of time we where on those planes. We had to transfer in Denver. It was 3.5 hours to there, and then another hour to Alb. Okay, I'm gona find some pics to go with this and then get my ass to bed. It's late. Halen's friend Connor is coming to play tomorrow while his mommy is in class. It'll be fun. I'm sure I'll get some cute pictures.

Mom's New Threads

I got new clothes! I got a whole slew of shirts with secret boobie revealing holes! It's great!!! Halen is happy too. Not only is his mommy so stylish, but he can get to the boobie without being covered up by a blanket in this heat! I never knew secret boobie holes could make me so happy, but they most certainly do! Yeah Boobies!

Plumber In Training

Here's Halen trying to get into the cabinet to look at some pipes. He's got the style down too.

The Terror Begins

Here Halen is trying to pull everything from the drawer out and onto the floor. He also tries to pull himself up out of his walker and hang on the drawer.

Little Vegan buddies. How awesome would it be if all of our parents where as cool as we are and raised us vegan??? I am so happy that Halen has Connor.
