couple of new ones...

These are just some pictures that I thought were cute...

The first one is Dorian after his bath. He was actually leaving the towel on his head, something he never does. Usually he yanks it off right away. So of course I had to grab my phone and take a picture.

This second one is when he was napping with Dada. I just love how he looks when he is sleeping! I could stare at him all day. That's probably why I never get anything done around the house!

This swing picture is so nice because of the colors. For some reason it reminds me of an old phont with some age decoloration. Maybe I'm crazy, that's okay it is a very cute picture. He didn't like the swing the first time we were in the park, this time he actually did!

This is a funny picture because he fell asleep with his arms up. He sleeps like that in bed sometimes too. Very cute. Again with the cute sleeping baby!

Delaney is Dorian's new girlfriend (going for the older women!). He gloms onto her and follows her around and is perfectly happy to have her carry him everywhere. Very funny. He likes other kids in general, but Delaney is special.

fun day

Dorian was soooo good coming back form Yosemite. He was stuck in the car for 5 hours and only cried for a little bit of it. So he did fantastic. After a long day of that we went to the Truckee River to meet up with some friends and some more kids. Dorian LOVED splashing in the water with his legs. He got to keep his water shoes on and be just like Dada.

Once we were done playing in the cold water (which mom was too whimpy to go in) we went to JJs and had pizza. Let me tell you, pizza without cheese is kinda sucky. The taste is still okay, and the crust yummy of course, but the cheese really makes the pizza, not to mention that it HOLDS all the veggies ON the pizza. Yeah, it was messy....

River Baby

VIDEO
Originally uploaded by drkarldc

We went to the river, like I said in a previous post, but I figured out how to load a video! So this is a movie of him throwing sand. I hope it works. :) Just push on the play button in the center of the screen. At the bottom right there is another button that will make the movie full screen. Enjoy!

some of my favorites

Dorian and I joined a baby gym class. Every Wednesday morning at 10:15 we get to go play on gigantic mats and big balls and balance beams etc. It is pretty cool because they have so much space to run around in for him. Also he gets to play with other kids and get some interaction time. Well, at the end of the play hour they do a bubble game. Dorian really likes looking at the bubbles and trying to catch them. The little girl in the picture is Janelle. She's the first girl he kissed, awwww.

I love this picture because he was being such a ham with his cherrios. He kept popping one in his mouth and saying "yummmm" really loud and grinning. Very cute. My little froggy face.

And of course since we're in the car so much we had to have a car picture of us driving. Well okay, we were parked and he was playing with the steering wheel, but good enough.

visit with Jayden

We went to visit Jane and Jayden down in Hayward. It was the first time the boys got to spend some time together. It was very funny. Jayden kept saying "baby" and pointing to Dorian. They learned to share toys with each other and played together very well. It was lots of fun. Dorian would come up to Jayden and hold onto him to stand. Jayden would look a little taken aback and just say "uh oh!".

Jayden also has a little toy piano which was loads of fun to pound away on, or climb on, stand on or sit on. Maybe he'll like playing piano, you never know, he looks like he knows what he's doing in this picture!

water baby

Dorian really is a water baby. Now he's a river baby too! He had soooo much fun playing in the sand! he dug up the sand and then threw it. It got in his hair, under the nails, in the diaper, on mom... pretty much everywhere. It was very funny. And he was so proud of himself too.

This picture was of Dorian when he crawled out of my arms to get on the counter and then climb into the sink. He just sat in there and played for a while. If you give him toys to play with in there, he can keep himself entertained for quite a while. At least he didn't turn on the water while he was in there!
