fun with the quilt

Orson has 2 new favorite games... both involve the quilt Grandma Sarah made...
He loves to lie on the floor and I toss the quilt over him and we play "peek-a-boo."
In the 2nd game, I hold one end of the quilt and say "all-aboard!" Orson scrambles onto the quilt and I pull him around the room. He could do this for hours and some days we do!

cartoon orson

A caricature artist at the market did Orson's portrait this weekend. Orson loved the attention from the crowd that gathered while getting his picture drawn.

market nap


Orson fought napping at the market on Saturday but eventually the nap won. He slept through balloons popping, dogs barking and people admiring his cuteness.

first tooth!


Orson's first tooth is starting to appear. It's his lower left front tooth. I attempted to take a picture of it, but Orson did not want to cooperate. (I'll keep trying)

picnic crazy

Picnics are perfect for warm weather and babies. Daddy got home early from class and we walked over to the park and ate dinner. Let's see... that's 3 picnics in 4 days!

an apple a day

Orson is a big believer in sharing, especially when it comes to food. He will stop at nothing to get to my plate. I find the best way to eat in relative peace is to give him half an apple or a big carrot to "chew" on.
