Welfare Baby

my poor Sam....no clothes....welfare baby?? nope! unprepared first time mom.


we went out to Ikea and he decided to poop in his car seat. So being the good mother that I am, I immediately took him to the change room to get him out of the diaper before it started spreading. too late! clothes were covered and had to come off. but to my dismay, I had only 1 diaper (thank goodness I had it), no spare clothes/t-shirts, no cloths, no wipes! I had to clean him up with the paper towel in the bathroom (he wasn't too pleased) and he got to go shopping with no clothes.

as you can see, no harm done!

ps....apparently my paper towel clean job wasn't that great! check out the foot ;)

Biking season has begun

Biking season is here - Kicking Horse opened this weekend so we went to Golden. The weather was soooo gorgeous and it was so nice to get out of town. Dad came home with some good trail cred' but all in one piece. :)


View from our room - it doesn't get much better than this!

Sam saying good-bye to dad before the riding day begins
The noisiest bird singing on the mountain! (we call him our bird because he is always making these squaking noises)
Little charmer at dinner...actually little ball of energy that would not let us eat!
Dad...you're embarassing me!
Day 2: all ready and waiting in the playpen...see his legs a kickin' away!

Mommy's little monster

I bought this outfit at Costco ... isn't it so perfect?! :)

Smiley little monster

Waving his arms (he likes doing jumping jacks!)

I surrender...I admit that I am mommy's little monster

awwww

just a random picture that dad took today to test the camera ... and it turned out so cute!! helps when you have such cute subject matter :)

ps....Happy Birthday Mrs Wizzle!!! :)

everything new is fascinating!

Sam is my little learner - he is so curious and always exploring new things. He LOVES to stand in the bathroom and talk to himself in the mirror ... but that too is passing and now he is exploring all the components in the bathroom. So yesterday as he started looking at the tap, I put him in the sink and he was very fascinated. yes, with a tap! it's something new - he loves anything new

Lime: an aquired taste

I gave Sam a lime to try the other night...I almost peed my pants, I was laughing so hard. Poor guy! but it's good to try new things, right?! :)

hmmm, what's that? let me try...
oh, not sure if I like that...
Definitely NOT! (he's not crying in this picture, just making a face)
give me a minute to process this new taste...

oh, it's not so bad...

Happy June!

June is here....maybe that means summer?! maybe?? :)

The snow is gone (at least for now) and Sam spent lots of time outside today: stroller fitness with mom, delivered condo newsletters with mom, went for a walk with grandpa (while mom got a much deserved massage - yeah!), then for a run with dad. I am hoping the fresh air has worn him out.

Little couch potato, chilling out with the remote

Sam & mom (one day I am going to regret teaching him to climb on the couch!)

Draped over the couch...doing what he does best: chewing on fingers of course!
Playtime with dad

Get that camera away - no more pictures!
