Baby's First Thanksgiving!

Well, I don't have too much to say about our Thanksgiving, except that Baby Friday was not impressed with the event.  He must've thought the house we were at was a bit too noisy, so he'd go ahead and join in and make his own noise. Yep. Although others assured us that he wasn't bothering them... well, he was bothering ME. I can't eat with a small, squirmy, and noisy creature sitting (squirming) in my lap. Hopefully he'll do better at our next event (whatever that might be).  The little guy proceeded to take a nap on the way home which made him nice and chipper for the rest of the evening (until oh... 1 am?). 

Although Baby Friday is usually terrible at taking daytime naps - he's usually ok sleeping through the night. Usually. If I can get him to nap during the day, it leads to him finally settling down for the night later than I'd planned (11 pm - 1 am or so). Here's a video of morning baby (note that he is no longer wrapped - he NEVER stays wrapped):

The weather channel tells me there is a 90-100% chance of snow tomorrow. Perhaps even 4-6 inches! Um. We don't have snow boots yet.

Thinking About Rolling Over.

I put the little guy down on his tummy earlier today (ok, yesterday, as of a few minutes ago) and it really looked like he was trying to roll over. I guess he's been getting practice strengthening his back when I carry him (he always looks like he's arching away from me - apparently it's to a purpose?). 

Tomorrow (or later today): updated length and weight after Boy Friday's four month check up! I just noticed that he's wearing the same clothes we had him in two months ago when Mom visited. I don't think he's actually gained much in length since then... I did try to measure him and I think he's not quite 25 inches. We'll see in about 12 hours!

New Toy

I picked up an exersaucer for Boy Friday today. Here's what he did when he first got to sit in it:

I really must remember to turn off the TV before taking videos.

A Message From Boy Friday...

Rainforest Booster Seat

We got this little booster seat thinking that it would help Boy Friday sit upright and he'd be happier... unfortunately he doesn't last too long in it just yet! Since he continues to slump to the side in it no matter how much stuff I shove in the side to prop him up, it just frustrates him. Of course, this video is from about 7 pm last night - and he's getting rather tired.

The Little Screamer

Well, here he is. The little screamer.

A Comment on Gay Marriage...

I found this comment by Keith Olbermann on the gay marriage issue.... It's depressing to me to think it's necessary to ban gay marriage.  What is it to you? How does it hurt you? And why should you even have the right to say someone else cannot love like you do? I know, I know - this isn't a baby video. I'm working on that. I couldn't upload this morning, so you get this instead!
