Cereal, High Chairs, Jumpers and Play Dates

Happy MLK Jr. Day from Atlanta!

2009 is off to a bang for me so far. Mom started a new feeding technique that involved rifling mushy food at my mouth on the end of a paddle-shaped tool she calls a "spoon". She started with rice cereal, but I prefer oatmeal. I was rewarded with a new jumper (pictured with a curious Deuce below) after a superior cereal eating performance (pictured above). This jumper actually hangs from a door jam, rendering that particular doorway completely useless -- but I like it.Wow...Meriwether, sweet Meriwether....we had an amazing play date a couple of weeks back, but I haven't heard from her since. I told myself I wouldn't wait by the phone, but just look at us. I haven't given up hope.The King has a new throne. Grandpa Stu assembled a beautiful and elevated perch from upon which I can supervise the adult table during their solid foods meals. Mom and Dad call it my High chair, but I'd rather not make that big a deal of it...Throne will do nicely.As of Sunday, Miss Meriwether hadn't called yet, and a man can't wait around forever...

I had a wonderful play date with Miss Emmy. As you will note by her advanced sitting position, she's an older and more mature woman. It was great fun. My social calendar will definitely begin to get complicated if this play date trend continues.

Thanks for reading everyone, have a great week....CDM.

Hey Dad and Mom.... Coop here. When do I get to go play with the gramps and the uncs and aunts...? Are you guys still out there lookin at me everyday? I don't want you to get bored with my site. I bet theres some pics of the big game on Last night. Some people were awfully happy and some were sad. As long as I've been hangin out here thats the way it seems to be. Ups and downs Ups and downs. Anyone whose stickin around with me is definitely going to be up tho... So hang in there all, and we will be right back after this desparately needed commercial break while I go get the bottle and snooze a while.....

Thanks for the memories Coop,
Love Aunt Bee
