Update + Tag

So I realize I’m really bad at this blogging business, but here’s a little update on our life. We just got back from a quick trip to Brazil this week. We usually go for at least a month, but this one didn’t last more than 2 weeks. Christopher was a good baby on the plane and in Brazil (which helped considering I was alone with him for all flights and for 1 week in Brazil). He grew his 1st tooth while we were there, and he’s just a happy little guy. I’ll post pictures sometime this week. Right now I’m just writing because I’ve been tagged by my friend Dana, so here it goes:

A Taste of Things to Come

This is Christopher having a taste of rice cereal.

A Case of the Giggles

We finally caught him on camera giggling. Although a little dark, the video does have great sound.

Giggle Time

Christopher is starting to giggle, and for some reason I always have my phone around and not the camera to take a good picture. Anyway, this afternoon I was playing with him and was able to catch a big smile (that actually had a giggle with it, but I didn’t have my camera to record it). He’s such a good baby, it’s been a lot of fun staying home with him!!!

Best Dad in the World

Every night Cory comes home and has a little alone time with his son. One of Christopher’s favorite parts of this is to lie down on his blanket and listen to Cory tell him stories. This night Cory was telling him about the 3 little pigs. Christopher was so into it that I couldn’t resist but to pick up the camera and sneak behind Cory to capture this cute father/son bonding time.
