TWO MONSTERS


One monster always moving,




one monster patiently waiting for her turn (she'll be destroying the house in under a month, mark my words.)

SPINOSAURUS


I knit a dinosaur for Gus.


He likes it a lot, and drags it everywhere a la Linus.



7 MONTHS


Nova is 7 months old today!


She shares her 7 month birthday with a very special person.


Happy birthday, Auntie!


We love you!

FEEDING IRENE


As many of you know, Irene and Gus are not pals (that's putting it nicely). Irene is terrified of Gus, and mostly runs away when he comes near her. This is not made any better by the fact that Gus thinks she's playing, and therefore chases her.


I've started letting Gus feed her in the hopes that it will help Irene warm up and see that Gus is not all bad. Plus it's fun for Gus. He's getting the hang of it, though at first he would try to hold it out for her one kibble at a time.


Poor Irene. I'll try to get a photo of how much grey hair Gus has caused her in the last year.

MISS POPULAR

Favorite things: crinkling (and sometimes chewing on) newspaper, rolling/crawling around, and holding this book

LITTLE BLUEBERRY


She was eating blueberries, which I thought was cute because she happened to be in a blue bib and a blue shirt. Unfortunately moments later the blue outfit was covered in blueberries, but what can you do?

CHUBBY CHEEKS, BLUE EYES


Isn't she pretty?

CAN'T FIX

Gus is a little sad. Earlier this week while I was putting Nova down for a nap, he took his new dump truck, put it in the toaster, and pushed down the lever. Now he keeps asking me to fix it.


Sorry, kid. You can't fix melted!

BUSY, BUSY

It's a pain to clean up, but it keeps him busy while I'm cooking.

THE LION HELPS

Nova is still a little tippy, so the lion helps her sit up in the highchair. Gus had George, remember?

ONE YEAR AGO

Sorry for the slow posting. We haven't had much time for photos of the kids, and every time I plug the camera into the computer I realize there's nothing new on it. Here's a flashback. One year ago: Gus was learning to walk:




It was coooooold,


and Momma was pregnant (and eating ice cream late at night - shhh don't tell!)

KETCHUP?

Gus likes ketchup so much, he tries to lick it off his plate!

LOOK WHO'S SITTING UP!



TOWER

Here is Gus's version of the Burj Dubai.

Maybe it should be called the Burj August?
