We took the boy to see the Mouse a few weeks ago. The excitement all started on the ride there. Daddy thought it would be a great idea to give him a sip of Juicy juice. This would be the first taste of sugary goodness that he has ever had. After the first initial sugar rush, he was hooked. He flailed his arms, and kicked his feet, and spent the next twenty minutes mad that there was no more left in the juice box.

It was an interesting day of observation. He had to look at everything. It was as if he was trying to absorb it all. Well, everyone knows a theme park is non-stop on the sensories. Of course, he enevitably became cranky thanks to the lack of sleep, and the crash from the sugary goodness. But, all in all it was a great day! It did produce this fantastic picture.

The storm before the storm....

After weeks of deciding what would be the perfect costume for the beautiful one, I finally decided that Mon, Dad, and Baby would be the Rubbles. You know, of the Flinstones. Luckily Grandma sews, and has made my crazy wishes come true for, what? Twenty one years...give or take 10. Anyway, so the above evidence that my son was born to play this role. Do know, that of the 300 plus pictures we took on Halloween, this was the only one with a smile.

The Storm after the storm was our very first cold. Stay tuned, we are still riding out those waves.
