    Here’s another shot from our trip to Clearwater to see the Scientologists:

  • Grandmary arrives!

    Debi’s Mom, Rosemary (a.k.a. Grandmary; her dad, Gary, is “Grandgary” to the grandkids), flew in yesterday.  She’s visiting for about a week (I’ll take some photos while she’s here, but haven’t yet).  I just have to note that her knowledge of babies has already proven invaluable.  While I’ve been posting mostly cute pictures of Toren,…

  • umbilical cord free!

    I’m not really posting stuff when it happens; this shot is almost a week old… I woke up on the 20th to take over from Debi and when I went to change Toren’s diaper, something was different: no umbilical cord.  It came off during the night on Debi’s watch.  I’ll snap a shot of his…

  • the heat leech

    A close second to eating in the hierarchy of things Toren loves is sleeping, but not just sleeping, sleeping on one of us.  Debi took a couple pictures of the heat leech on me the other day: He had been sleeping there for a good hour at this point and I think slept here an…

  • hey blue eyes

    As mentioned in a previous post, Toren’s usually asleep or in various stages of sleep (or closing his eyes when he poops).  So when he opened his eyes nice and wide the other day while I was reading him the news, I figured I had to take a picture: As strange as it may seem,…

  • Wowser!

    During our walking tour of Scientology-ville (a.k.a. Clearwater, FL; more on this to come), we stopped at a Baskin Robbins for some ice cream (it was pretty hot and muggy).  Inside the Baskin Robbins Toren suddenly woke up and started looking around all bug-eyed.  Since the kid is generally asleep, to see his eyes open…

  • tiny baby photoshoot

    A couple more photos from the first photoshoot:

  • 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…
