I want a bottle and I want it now!
Toren has developed a good little appetite. To keep up with him we bought a bunch of bottles. As I headed into the kitchen one day to wash them I thought the clutter warranted a new photo shoot. These aren’t quite as good as the last one, but I thought they turned out okay: I’m…

To the pain…
Here’s the scene: Debi was sleeping. Toren was sleeping. I was working and listening to the baby monitor for signs that Toren was hungry. He started whimpering quite loudly, which is usually an indication that he’s hungry. So, I got up to check on him. Just as I got to his bassinet, he farted, then…

Toren at the beach
Toren had his first visit from family on the 13th when his uncle, Brent Robbins, overnighted in Tampa. We went out to Clearwater for dinner and Brent was kind enough to take a photo of our little family – the first with all three of us. It’s not the greatest photo (not Brent’s fault), but…

etymology of Toren Marx
Several people have asked us the origin of “Toren Marx.” Here’s the etymology as best as I can put it together. First, “Toren” was a name Debi came up with while thinking about possible baby names. It met our criteria – it sounds good with “Cragun” and is not widely used. At the time, we…

Toren eats his own arm!
I prepared a bunch of videos in advance but am going to post one a day to keep people happy. Here’s today’s video of Toren rooting on his arm:

by popular demand, more Toren!
Sorry, I know it’s been a few days since I posted about Toren – and yes, several people have emailed complaining. So, I’ll try to post a bit more. Yesterday Debi had a doctor’s appointment, and since she can’t drive on her own yet, I took her to the doctor’s office. Toren and I took…
