This Week in Pictures -- Week 16

Dear Augosto.

Another weekend. More pictures.

--Grandma Lopez sent a very large package with all kinds of stuffed animal based on Dr. Seuss characters. Here you are hanging out with them.



--Yesterday, we decided to put you in one of your cute snowsuits and take you outside for some much needed sunlight. It was quite tedious getting the stroller past some of the many unshoveled sidewalks but it was all worth it.



--This has become one of my favorite pictures. Usually when you are in the swing and you get tired, you start crying. Not this time. You bypassed the crying and went straight to lala-land. :)



That's all I got for now.

Love.

Dad.

that growing boy...

Dear Augosto.

Another weekend zoomed in as fast as it has zoomed out.

We spent mostly the whole weekend doing a lot of our normal things, such as cooking, recycling, reading, playing, dancing, washing, horseback riding, etc... OK, just kidding on the horseback riding.

This weekend was also supposed to be a special weekend because we planned on introducing you to cereal.

When I say cereal, I don't mean Cap'N Crunch or Fruity Pebbles or anything like that. No dried up marshmallows. No sugar-coated sugar. Not even a prize at the bottom of the box. Just plain ol' rice cereal from a round canister.

We didn't plan on giving you cereal so early but we noticed that when you knock out a 5 oz. bottle you have this look on your face that says, "That was a great appetizer. What's next?"

This is just another of many signs that you are growing faster and faster.

I don't know if I have ever mentioned that you have some very tall people in your gene pool. Your uncle Trevor is over 6 feet tall. So was your great-grandfather(my mom's father).

No matter what. You keep doing what you need to do.

Grow. Grow. Grow.

And we'll figure out how to keep that belly full.

Love.

Dad.

PS. Unfortunately, we were a bit too busy to introduce you to cereal this weekend but have no fear. There is always next weekend. And the next one...
