I Poop, I Fart, I Burp.... I am a boy

I don't have much to say... the title states it all. Mommy let's me have naked time after dinner and before bath which I LOOOOOOOVE. The other night went like this.....

Naked, playing with toys... Wait a minute... Stand up... Fart in Mother's general direction.... Laugh.... Wait a minute..... Burp up dinner.... Really Laugh cause Daddy's laughing.... Wait a Minute.....Poop on the floor... SMILE.

No Photo necessary.

It's been awhile...

It's been well over a month since Mommy has been able to do much of anything... Daddy tells me it's because I am going to get a baby brother in August. I have to say this disturbs me. If my blog is already suffering because of said baby brother what else is going to go? Diaper changings? Bottles? Snuggle fests with Mommy? I mean really I was not consulted on this new baby brother idea, so I really don't see the issue that Mommy takes it back to the store where she got it. I mean really folks... Three is company right! It's easier to call people a trio than a quartet. No? Not buying that one. Well I will just have to throw a couple of tantrums and remind my little brother of exactly that. HE IS THE LITTLE ONE, I CAME FIRST!

I'm very busy and important

Can't you see that I am busy.... This is why I haven't had time to write. I need to catch up on all the sales happening around town.

Weekend Re-Cap

What a fun and exciting weekend!

Friday:

Mommy and Daddy got a phone call from these people....





"These People" are Grandpa and Grandma Kohlman who live in Vancouver, Canada. After the phone call mommy was crying and daddy was smiling. I deduced that they are moving back to phoenix. See... I am only 9 months old and already I have people bending to my ways. Anywho details need to be worked out, but they are moving back!!!!


Saturday:

A cold and rainy day, I don't think the temp got past 65 and for Phoenix man that is cold..... no bother, we had fun indoors......

See ...


and....



We just lounged around the house and then mommy and daddy rented movies and cooked a great dinner of goat cheese stuffed chicken breasts, autumn roasted veggies and polenta (Daddy's new favorite thing).

Sunday:

Sunday my Mommy and Daddy took me to my first trip to the liquor store! We all piled in to the car to check out the new BevMo in Scottsdale. It's super cool, but no baby juice..... check it out.

I played on the floor most of the day. Don't you like my old man look with the socks and no pants.



I also have come to terms with the big boy tub... I have decided I love him.



Finally, this morning it was off to Daycare for a half day. Today Mommy telecommuted, but had a big project to finish in the morning. It was cold, only 42 degrees when Daddy and I left so Mommy put this on me and off we went.



Yup, that's right... Ladies eat your heart out.

James.

Blech....

It's cold and rainy today, I would rather be cuddling with mommy and daddy nursing on a bottle of my beloved Similac, but alas they have me at daycare with all the other crazy kids.

So I need help. Mommy had to fire someone today, she is very upset. She has not had to terminate someone in 7 years. What can I do to cheer mommy up? suggestions??

Musings From a Tub

Before we get to the tub, mommy was late to work today because I did this!

Just kidding, I just thought the picture was funny, even funnier when it was happening. I just love my cereal with fruit in the mornings.

Mommy was late this morning to work really because of this…..

Daddy and Mommy bought this off of Craig’s list about a month ago, apparently I make it pretty darn impossible to get the gym and mommy complains about how “large and in charge” she is after having me….. I don’t get it, but hey I am only 9 months old and I just love my mommy no matter what.

Anyway I digress, mommy has been trying to get into an exercise routine and this morning was the first time she tried it at 5:00am. Needless to say she feels great, but was a bit late to work today.

On to THE TUB!!! You may remember last week I made mention of a “big boy” tub that mommy and daddy were going to put me in. Let’s take a trip down memory lane before we discuss the porcelain monster they feed me to nightly.

Back in the old days this is what my bath originally looked like.



They put me in a smaller version of the porcelain monster they called a kitchen sink. It was small, cramped, even. Can’t you tell how happy I looked?

The next evolution of bathing was my best friend ducky. Mommy was super smart and found this gigantic rubber ducky tub; bliss, pure bliss….. I LOVED MY DUCKY!




Mommy, why did you kill ducky?





So now here is what my bath time ritual has resorted to.




They say I have outgrown my duck; will I ever love this tub as much? (No Drugs were used on this child for the picture above!)

Turkey & Sweet Potatoes

So I am getting heat already from Auntie Geg about being a slacker on my blog, wait until Christmas Auntie, I have a fart and spit up saved just for you.
So this last week was the passing of a time honored American tradition mommy and daddy call Thanksgiving. (What I heard a lot of was, " I hate this G*&@#**! oven, 12 people for dinner and the Turkey is still not done!) No matter to me though I got my dinner right here....

Mommy and Daddy had a good time, I was good. I know Mom and Dad worked very hard on dinner. While I had my jarred food (I look interested I know..)

they dined on :

Homemade Yeast Rolls, Sweet Potatoes Caramelized Onion Gratin, Mashed Potatoes whipped with heavy cream and butter, Stuffing (Cornbread and a sausage maple sage version) Roast Turkey that was brined for 24 hours and Pinot Noir Gravy. All Recipes can be found in holiday issue of Fine Cooking.

Dessert was pecan bourbon chocolate chip pie, recipe courtesy of Auntie Geg and Costco pumpkin pie. Mommy has pictures to post and is going a bit mad looking for her video card, I think that damn dog might have ate it

Toodles for now.
