  • Toren as card table 2

    My sister Wendy, with whose camera we took the earlier photo I posted of Toren as a card table, sent some additional photos from that night of wild Cragun canasta fun:

  • turtle boy

    Now that Toren is a bit pudgy, we rarely see his neck. When he does stretch it out, he kind of looks like a turtle:

  • Toren’s happy place

    We’re not sure why, but Toren’s best smiles seem to come on the changing table: Maybe it’s that whole nudity thing?!?
