Spud's first autumn is getting underway. The leaves are showing a hint of color, there is a slight chill in the air, and Claire is seriously considering turning on the furnace for the first time. So we are introducing Spud to layered clothing. Just so you can plan, it's great having a new baby in the spring and summer. Clothing: onesie. Now that the cooler weather has moved in, we start with a onsie, add a t-shirt and pants, and cover the whole thing with a coat. And socks. I suppose I should mention that there is a diaper under there too. He seems to know the drill when it comes to getting dressed, and actually "helps" to get his arms in the correct orientation to get them into the sleeves.
So we bundle up a bit now before we head off to work. But first, a snack.


One thing he still needs to learn: don't try to smile while you're eating.
He SOOOO reminds me of you, Johnny. All you had to do was SEE a camera and you were smiles from ear to ear. One happy happy baby...just like his Dad. He looks so much like you too. Like looking in a mirror from the past. Wonder if his first word will be "DUCK."
ReplyDeleteAnd boy were we worried about pronuciation.
He's not smiling at the camera yet. To get him to smile, we still have to get a goofy grin on our faces first. So, not officially a camera ham yet. But that day will come.
