Remember I said my baby was awesome

Slept for four hours straight in her shitty britches AND lands with a smile.

Breakfast party.

We party. Hard. Between the hours of 10am and 8pm.  After that we sleep. Hard. Like old folks with a baby.

Last night we went to bed at 9pm. Our hotel was ON bourbon steet.  The raucous party sounds of piss drunk frat boys and sloppy cougars lulled us to sleep in the early evening. We dug it. No regrets :)

Vacation had been excellent. Boss baby likes to nap in the humidity of the south. It's kinda cool. We are definitely looking forward to next year.

Come on back for a cold one

Boss baby, relaxing in alabama, being polite, showing keen interest in dad's dumb story.

Up in the air

The great white fang of the south west had her second airplane flight today.  And the first one of consequence.  Today we flew for four hours.  It could have been rough.

We were prepared for the worst. We (Marin) made snack packs with apology card in them for our co passengers.  We forget these at home.  We stressed about how many toys to bring. We stressed more just because that's what we do...

But boss baby is on vacation this week, and she was relaxed. Honestly not one whine wimper or complaint out of her in a four hour flight, 2 hour drive to lax, or the hour or so wait to get off the plane and get our bags.  My baby is f$&#ing awesome and you should be jealous.

We are all looking forward to cocktails and humid sandy beaches this week. It's gonna be rad.

The livin is easy...

Summer is awesome with a baby.  Pool splashin, and beachy afternoons.  Warm afternoons in the backyard.  It's like watching the wonder years in 3D super HD+ real life!

Marin is a pretty good Winnie Cooper.  I'll take her anyway.  :)

More is less

I think there is an inverse relationship between a child's age and the amount of crap you must keep with you to help them through this big scary world. 

I put big baby snacks in the stroller without her car seat today. First time! It is so much lighter without the car seat in it.  I'm ready for some baby joggering. She fit great and was pretty stoked on the new perspective.

So... six months in and one massive baby item down.... sometimes.  I am looking forward to having some (some) of my space back one day.

Mmm.... tastey

It's been a while since I posted here.  Sorry :)

I have good excuses (went to the middle east, bought a house, changes at work....) but if you are reading this you dont care about old men. You care about cute babies.

Another thing I must apologize for is posting photos of misd tiny chompers on social media.  This blog is supposed to prevent me from doing that and recently I have succumb to the dark temptation of the "like".  I am so ashamed. 

Enough about boring old men...

Andie is eating.  Mostly rice cereal but we have tried a few other items.

Avocado: thumbs down. I'll be working on this one. No daughter of mine is going to dislike avocado.

Watermelon: loved it, but didn't want to swallow it.

Grapefruit: I'm a terrible person :)

When she eats she already grabs the spoon and wants to feed herself.  It's really fun.  I love feeding her, it's great.
