  Blocks? What blocks?

  Sean was playing with his blocks. His mom wanted to record the playing on camera. She got out said camera, turned it on, and recorded Sean. Who suddenly had no interest in his blocks whatsoever. I believe this demonstrates the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle somehow. The proof is left to the reader.

  Sean in Austin

  Flying to Austin, Sean was fascinated with the goings-on on the runway. Grandma came to help us all out in our first few days here. I bought Sean some new blocks. He pretty much just puts them in his mouth and bangs them on things right now. But I’m enjoying them! Much more interesting to […]

  Eight Months Moving

  Here are a couple clips showing Sean moving around at the end of September when he was eight months old. It’s amazing how much more he’s moving now just a couple weeks later. We’ve been scouting out a good soft place to sit out on a blanket here in Austin, but the ground is very […]

  The Perfect Food

  I am 100% convinced that people are evolved to eat fruit. Several weeks ago, on a whim, I handed Sean a plum — a whole plum — to see what he’d do with it. What did he do? He ate it. Almost all of it. Quickly and with relish (and quite a bit of mess). […]

  Some photos from Sean’s eighth month of life: Sean loves his baths, although he’s starting to try to climb out of his little baby bath these days… He’s now able to stand holding on to something. The corner of the Pack and Play is perfect for practicing. And, he’s still a happy little guy. He […]

  Hi!

  I think he’s got it! Today we walked up the stairs and past the closet mirror. And as we passed, I said to Sean’s reflection “hi!” And he waved at my reflection! A tentative wave, I’ll admit, but a distinctive wave none-the-less. Ben and I tested the wave again this evening, and sure enough, a […]
