Visit to Maine

Kisses from Smokey!Having fun alongside cousin Viv~
This was after Mom left Andrew for over 2 hours with Aunt Wendy and Vivien!
Poor Auntie had an inconsolable baby on her hands... She tried everything- burping, feeding- Andrew even "crashed" for a 20 minute nap. Nothing worked 'til Mom came back! Separation anxiety is ROUGH! Meanwhile Mom was getting a nice birthday-present massage. (Mom did not have any anxiety!)
Andrew is beginning to inherit all sorts of nifty toys from his cousin!
Grandpa fed him squash for the first time~ Good stuff!
We went for a sled ride down to the lake before it became absolutely frigid outside.
Andrew was dressed in 2 additional outfits and socks underneath his snowsuit!
The antique sled was easy to manuever through the icy snow. Fun!
Andrew was making "Mmm!" noises much of the time, clearly enjoying it!


Buddies?
Cousin Vivien was very kind to offer her sippy cup...

....And a Teddy Graham!
I don't think Andrew enjoys those necklaces!
Grandma (Gigi), daughter and grandson- geared up for Patriots action!!!
Andrew stayed up late to watch the whole game!
....and wore a victory hat! (courtesy of Auntie Wendy)
Off to the Superbowl!!!

Prune Lover

Andrew is becoming really good at sitting! In the recent past, like the early days of tummy time, he'd become fussy from all the effort it took. This afternoon, seemingly over his feverish fussiness 24 hours later, he spent a few minutes at a time, unassisted!

A graceful yet great big fall!
Argh, got in the way of the flash.
Who knew prunes were soooooo delicious! Had to let him "go to town" since he was enjoying- well, practically inhaling them! It was almost bath time & inspired after talking to Uncle Matt on the phone who was busy feeding cousin Vivien something messy. Later, after removing his outfit from the wash, even after treatment with Shout, the prunes stained! We'll have to reserve this sunny outfit for further prune "excursions". Then again, (this actually being his first stained outfit), I better get used to it!
