explode, ignite, the baby ando team is dynamite!

i had the largest poop explosion to date today...i'd show you what i mean but the evidence is too gruesome to disclose...not to mention, it's soaking in a pale of soapy water right now. you'll just have to take my word for it...and hope that you never have to experience something like it yourself :)

i did OWLot last week!

last week i had lots of milestones! i drank from the bottle every night, i smiled a lot, i wore big boy clothes, i went to the mall (dad finally let me out in public!) and i weighed enough that when i sat in the bouncer it actually bounced! take a look...

here's a half-a-smile. mom's camera is a bit too delayed and missed all my big smiles!


here's another take on my smile. mom sure was trying really hard to get a good picture!

here you can see a visit from auntie leelee. she brought mom and dad's fave item from danny boys...pizza quesadillas! you may think this picture of me is horrible, but i actually wanted you to see my 'poop face'. it is a sure-thing that when i make this face, you can bet there could potentially be a poop emergency shortly thereafter!

auntie traci also visited that day. she did a good job taking care of me and charley at the same time. i am going to call her "t" just like her nephew gavin does!

here i wanted to give a shout out to all the other little boys out there wearing sweater rompers!

slowly but surely, charley and i are becoming real pals. i love watching him. he loves watching me too...umm, not so much.

auntie jenine and auntie krista bought me another really cool big boy outfit...something without owls! and if you look closely, you can see i am really enjoying my pacifier!

i bet next week i look a lot bigger in my pictures because i am eating all the time! i have a feeling a growth spurt is on the way...stay tuned!

speaking of soft pretzels...

so i played a trick on dad today. the smell of soft pretzels filled the air. literally! after i ate, dad changed my diaper...or at least attempted to, but i had something else in mind.

mom was upstairs with auntie leelee and heard dad scream and ask for help. when she came into my bedroom, she saw that i left 'soft pretzels' on the carpet, the diaper genie, the crib, the mattress, the crib skirt, the wall, and worst of all...the brand new personalized pictures that she bought to hang above my crib.

all dad could do was laugh. later i heard him telling mom that he will remember that moment forever. and good thing auntie leelee remembered to capture the scene on camera so we could share it with all of you too! notice that they had to take my entire crib apart to clean everything!
