Sometimes Daddy gets a little carried away with the camera. My playtime gets cut into by the incessant flashing and begging for me to pay attention to the lens.
But every now and again there seems to be a shot worth sharing so in the name of diplomacy I've authorized the publication of this image.

...ok, just kidding. Jacob and Issac came to visit us from Ohio this past weekend and boy did we have fun. Well, they had fun while they played with Taylor and Connor. I just kind of sat around and made nice with everyone. It's difficult to act cheery when I haven't even learned to touch a finger to a nose, much less eat a couple of Krispy Kreme's with the rest of the lot. I gave Daddy my best Billy Idol, Rebel Yell impersonation for the photo - I think I pretty much nailed it.

Daddy's hand can be intimidating, especially when its bigger than my head. But when it's got cake frosting on the tip of a finger all of those fears seem to wash away.
My first experience with the priceless material that we will call sugar, was an experience that rivaled birth itself.

Ok - this one's pretty cute if I must say so myself. Just thought I'd throw it in for good measure.
Although the white "body-sock" contraption I'm wearing is nice and warm, I'm not sure about the look. Makes me look like a fleshy marshmallow.

Mommy, Daddy, Tex (the armadillo) and I had ourselves some cake yesterday for a little belated celebration of my 3 month birthday. Daddy was gracious enough to put some frosting on the tip of his finger for me to enjoy. I knew there was a reason why I like him so much - sugar=good food!Ironically enough, we had the biggest snow of my short life as well... 10"+ inches!! And I was just starting to think 50's-60's were the norm for winter in Virginia! I can't wait until I'm old enough to get out there and play in it!

Daddy brought home a new friend for me from his trip to Austin this past week. Tex is a fuzzy armadillo who likes to hang out with me. So far he's been quite adept at avoiding my post-meal projectile spit-up. I only wish Daddy was fairing as well.

I was feeling Pope-like after I mastered the pool. Although the hooded towel was not necessarily high style, it certainly was warm and dry and that my friends is what it's all about.
I must say my first day at the pool was quite an adventure. I can't wait to get back and have another lesson - Michael Phelps eat your heart out!

This about sums up my whole life - Mommy holds me down and Daddy does something to amuse himself with some part of me!Although potentially dangerous before we've had lunch, don't be alarmed, he's not really eating my toes. Please don't try this at home.NLC
I made the decision early on NOT to look straight at the camera. I figure playing a little difficult to get is all practice for when I get older and it really matters - can't start too early.
Mommy and Daddy sure were smiling a lot - I think they were amused at seeing me in my new "trunks".NLC
Everyone seems thrilled with the water but for me, the jury is still out. I have to say the people watching was exceptional. I saw one little boy cross the pool deck at a good clip only to find himself immediately on his back when his little feet couldn't cope with the wet deck. Luckily nobody was hurt which was a good thing because Mommy and Daddy were trying not to laugh. Tay-tay and Connor were like two sharks in the pool - I have a long way to go before I catch up with them!

I am so embarassed...here I am getting my first swimming lesson from Daddy and I've got to admit, its like being tutored by Cornelius from the Planet of the Apes. If Daddy had all that back hair on his head he'd look like one of the Doobie Brothers from the 70's. Anyway, I was really diggin' the pool until Daddy put me all the way under - that really stomped my buzz.
NLC
I've detected a slight breeze and the distinct smell of CHLORINE! As is often the case, I feel I've totally exploited myself for the benefit of the blog. Lucky for all the readers, Mommy and Daddy are completely supportive of the practice.
Is your excitement building?

I've donned the terrycloth robe and I'm ready for action...kinda. Clearly, I still haven't grasped what's about to happen. Daddy appeared sheepishly coy with me - I should have known he was up to something.NLC
...form of sisters who are getting ready to go swimming! The one in yellow for the first time! I clearly don't know what's about to hit me!NLC
