Grandma Love

Grandma W arrived Saturday for a two-week visit.  The question is - who is happier to see the other -- Colby or Grandma?

Eating food

We have enjoyed feeding Colby baby food.  He did NOT like rice cereal at all.  He has, however, enjoyed 1st stage vegetables and fruit.  Ashley and I have laughed at his facial expressions.  How can anyone not love his eyes???

Travel

Brian has entered a period at work which requires travel almost every week from now until Thanksgiving. Last week was Los Angeles and San Francisco.

This picture is of Telegraph Hill in San Francisco and was taken from inside the TransAmerica Building.




This one shows a latte purchased in the market across the street from the Embarcadero office complex.




Brian will return to California this week. He looks forward to his second cross country red eye flight in one week.

Smiling Faces

Except when it was feeding time, the smiling faces of Colby and his many great relatives warmed the hearts of Mommy and Daddy.

What a week!

Colby and his parents are having quite a week. First an earthquake occurred. Daddy felt it in his Manhattan office while Colby and Mommy also felt it in New Haven. Then, today, we find ourselves inside awaiting the arrival of Hurricane Irene. This article sums things up pretty well, and yes, Daddy also experienced the blackout.

The one good event of the week occurred yesterday when Colby received his six months doctors check-up. Here is a picture of Ashley comforting him on the exam table. Pictures of his first tasting of spoon fed food will follow soon!

Bathtime follows playtime

Hands and feet

Colby has begun to hold his bottle in his own hands. He only needs our help in tipping it up to get the last bit of milk.




He is also pulling his feet towards his mouth.
