Christmas Crafts

Gus' first craft! Okay, he did little but pose for the picture but it was an important part of the design, right? This is actually a patch for the daycare's holiday quilt they put together. This project made me realize that things like glue and glitter are going to be part of our life for many, many years. So funny to think about. He does make a delightful elf though.

Put your Gus in it

Gus showing off that he has learned to love his carrier.

If I had seen he was flaring his nostrils I'd have known he was going to the bathroom.

Time for my diaper change!

Toboggan Time

Gus had to borrow a toboggan from Uncle Richard when he came out to visit. The temperature dropped quickly and his bald little head had to be covered a la Papa Smurf.

Giggle Box

Gus is getting very vocal these days. He likes to experiment with the different sounds he's capable of making as well as doing total belly laughs, which we are told he does for no apparent reason at daycare. Press the arrow key under the above image to get your giggle fix.

Big Bumpo

We introduced Gus to the Bumpo seat recently and to our delight he loved it! Its so funny to see him sitting upright as if sitting in a chair by himself. A little more practice and one day he will be sitting up by himself! Hard to imagine!

Peach Fuzz.

Gus has really started to mature these days. First, he's growing more hair. In this picture it looks like he has very blond fuzz but it looks more red I think. Still hard to say. But the big news is he has a tooth! He is working on two bottom teeth but one actually popped through the skin. It is a little soon from what we hear but normal. Its cute and sad at the same time as we adore his gummy smile but I have a feeling a smile with one bottom tooth will be pretty cute, too!
