winter solstice

 
 

So, as I understand it, in December, we celebrate Christmas (the birth of Christ) to coincide with Winter Solstice for the pagans... (Impressive for a 4 month old--I observe a lot.) But with my family, we keep celebrating Christmas. This was my second this year, and I understand Christmas really happens later this week.

So, this time, I got clothes, and more clothes... we ate soup and lemon pie (ok, mom let me have some of her soup, and when she wouldn't share her pie, I chewed on her fingers, looking for lemony goodness...)

Here are pictures of me practicing getting ready for crawling, me and my Grandma Koester, me and my dad, and finally, me completely tuckered out, sleeping in my mom's bed--once again, I kicked her out of her bed).....

Oh, and I tried eating cardboard (oh, I mean rice cereal).

What a week

 
 

Well, as you can see from the pictures, it started off casually (I even learned to do the hang loose hand sign) but ended up with me being completely exhausted. Why is it that shots leave me feeling beaten up???? Maybe next time the lady who gives me shots won't hide behind my mom... it makes me mad at my mom, and it takes a couple of days of mixed emotions about my mom to remember she doesn't know how to give shots.

Exciting news, my doctor said I could try real food, but not the stuff I want to eat. I can have rice cereal. They say the cereal will stop me up, maybe I will stop having "accidents" at church--but why stop the fun?

peace out G.

Hair loss

 
 
 

Well, when I was much younger, I had thick curly hair. As I have gotten older, I have discovered more and more hair in the bottom of the tub, or on my blankets or on my mom's clothes. Looking at my dad, I had some concern that my hair would thin, but you would have thought it would have waited until at least my first birthday. Anyway, my mom says it will grow back (I am only 4 months old you know)... I am trying to belive her, but... that is a lot to believe in. When does baldness usually start? How do you know it is for ever? Will wearing hoodies all the time make it look like I am trying to hide something? Am I too young for rogain? Do you think they will offer me a sponsorship, if it works? Way too many things for me to think about.....
