Loads and Loads of Laundry

Its a little overwhelming

Frustration

Recently I have put together a photo album of Zachariah. In it I have put two pictures of him from every week since he has been born. Its a really quick way to see how fast he is growing up. Luckily it has been really easy to get two pictures a week that I love! I usually have a hard time deciding on just two to put in the album. But this week has been a nightmare. I have tried for 6 days now to get just 2 pictures. I am not a photographer, so I have come to accept that my pictures are not going to be magnificent. So it shouldn't be hard to get 2 pictures of my son, right? They don't have to be glamorous. They don't have to be stunning or adorable. I do not expect them to be the best pictures of his short little life so far. But I just want two pictures that aren't blurry. That's it. If he will just hold still for one moment that would be perfect. But I have had no such luck. I have taken over 20 pictures this week and I have NOTHING to show for it.

Does anyone have a picture of your kid that I can borrow for this week's entry in the photo album?

4 Months Old

At our last Dr. appointment (about 2 weeks ago) my little man weighed in at 15 pounds 11 ounces. He had been nursing every 2 hours or so and waking up more frequently during the night, so the Doctor told me to start him on Rice Cereal and Stage 1 baby foods. He didn't like the Rice Cereal very much, but he has been LOVING the baby foods. I was actually a little worried about him eating from a spoon, but he did really well! Now, when its time to eat, he gets so excited and tries to help me... which is cute, until he shoves the spoon to the back of his throat.

So far he has tried Green Beans, Applesauce, Sweet Potatoes, and Bananas. He hasn't found one that he doesn't like yet, but can you tell which one is his favorite?

A Whole Lot of Nothing

For the past few weeks I have started writing several new posts. But they are all incomplete. I could never finish a though, much less a post. It isn't like I haven't had things to post about. Things have happened. For example:

The writers strike is really cramping my style
I am officially hooked on the TV show LOST
There is something about a presidential election coming up
Thespacebaronourkeyboardhadabreakdown,causingustotypelikethisforawhile.
I have been slacking in the Harry Potter department. I have read the first 5 books. I am hoping to start the 6th one soon.
Our stove caught on fire last night, and I am almost positive it was my fault.
Zachariah has started eating baby food (and he is loving it)
He has also turned 4 months old
And he is currently yelling at me for not paying him any attention

See, I have stuff I could have blogged about... but for some reason I just cant motivate myself to complete a post.

Oh well, maybe next time.

Christmas Bandit

I couldn't even begin to list out everything that Zachariah got for Christmas... but I can tell you that he made out like a bandit. He got a ton of cute toys and clothes. Look at this outfit that his Aunt Christie gave him! Isn't it adorable? I am in love with the vest.
