Month: February 2011

I’m a climber!

I know you’re thinking Uncle Neil is young and I’m restless, but you’re wrong. I’m both and Uncle Neil is just old. He is 25 today! Happy Birthday Uncle Neil!! Thanks for sharing it with me!

Today I went to the doctor for my nine month check up.

Here are my new stats:

Height: 27.5 inches – 50th percentile

Weight: 17lbs 4 oz – 25th percentile (I’m a little thin but the doc said not to worry as it’s “in my genes” since mom and dad are thin….)

Head Circumference: 45.5 cm – 85th percentile (this appears to also be in the genes as Uncle Neil has an enormous noggin!)

You can see from the pic of my chart that mom snapped that I’m right on track.

I also had an eye test which I passed with flying colors and a nasty Hep B shot in my thigh that I was somehow tricked into getting. All was okay though as mom decided to make it up to me and take me out to lunch. Here I am stuffing my 85th percentile head with a delicious roll from Bertucci’s.

Ah, life is good…..

Today I am 9 months, my how time flies. Mom can barely get me to sit still for a photo!

Here I am hammering out a tune!

My Dad, my Valentine for the day, just arrived home! See me smile upon seeing his face?

Finally getting a ride..

Ooh and my very own Valentine from Grandma W… what does it say?

And how does it taste??

Mom must have had a premonition that I was going to start crawling today because she dressed me in my Adidas track suit top. Watch me chase the measuring tape around the living room!

Today was a very busy, but fun day for me! First I went to brunch with mom, dad and uncle Neil. I munched on several things including this pickle.

Then after we dropped uncle Neil off at the train station we decided to continue on with the fun and went to the Norwalk aquarium. Here I am being a twin nerd with my dad admiring the plumbing.

Then we watched some turtles swim by.

After seeing sea lions and penguins we then went to see the jellyfish tank.

Now I’m watching fish swim inches from my face.

Here I am using a sippy cup on my own while reclining on dad’s legs. Dad makes a pretty good drinking buddy!

Today Dad and I decided to dress in matching shirts. Now the only question is which one of us is Danny DeVito? (video online)

My Grandpa W bought me this Jack in the Box. I was amused by it for a few days but got sick of waiting for Jack to pop out of the box so I figured out how to pop him out at will!

Here I am eating brunch of an omelet with sauteed mushrooms onion and Parmesan while trying to get the hang of finger foods. (video online)

I’m obsessed with my furry friend!

Here I am having a dinner conversation with my mom. I’m asking her where my dog is….doesn’t it sound like I’m saying Ollie?
