Totally 80s, and a fondue friday.

We had an eighties party at the office, and some brave souls—notably, abigail and arvind—dressed the part. And today, we had a little fondue party, in part because my paterinty leave starts now, in part because it’s friday, and in part because there are few foods that can’t be improved by molten cheese or molten chocolate.

Bea’s room, and also her bath.

Kelly recently hung Bea’s quilt on the wall, and i put up the alphabet cards (a-z, don’t be fooled because you only see three), and today i gave her a bath.

Playtime with daddy!

At almost six months old, little bea is reaching the age where daddy making a funny face is an occasion for a smile and might even call for a giggle, if accompanied by an appropriately timed round of Mirror Peekaboo or Pendulum Baby. The spitting image of her father as a newborn, i think she’s looking like her momma a little more every day.

mmm… Roasted chicken…

Kelly roasted a chicken tonight, and it was very good. She did some things with garlic and butter. i’m not feeling great today so i’m not sure how it all happened. Beautiful wife, yummy dinner. The end.

Lightroom! Lightroom! Lightroom!

Here is something you probably already know: i spend a lot of time on photos. For the last few years i have used exclusively free tools for editing and organization, but after another bout of crashing with a free tool, i recently bought the high-end photo development software i have wanted for years: adobe lightroom. It arrived in the mail today and it is glorious, a sort of digital darkroom in which i will spend countless hours developing photos of … Well, let’s face it, mostly kelly and bea. :)

Friday night lights!

We have been watching the television program “friday night lights” on netflix and have been eagerly awaiting the next chapter in the saga taking place in dillon, texas. Well, that chapter arrived in the mail today and erik came over and we kind of watched the entire thing in one go. it’s riveting!

Rubber duckie!

Now that beatrice can sit up for a few minutes, we have been letting her do so in the bath. Recently, we introduced rubber duckies to the bath, and she loves them. When she sees one, she will gasp with excitement and practically dive-bomb for it (pictured). Sometimes she will faceplant in the water, but this never seems to faze her; she blinks and keeps on splashing.

Boy, did i fall off the wagon.

Hey, what happened to the picture of the day? Well, i’ve been taking them. But, you know, the cardboard boxes were a surprise. And our wireless network was down. And… Well, you know how it goes. This is a nearly a week’s share of pictures, including that time when we packed bob’s office full of boxes, and when Bea and i hung out together almost all day, and how we invited my siblings over for a barbecue and had homemade cookies for dessert, and Beatrice’s contemplative look when she is being changed and how she has not figured out how to drink from a straw yet.

My turn to feed the Bea.

Tonight i fed beatrice for the first time! I have given her a bottle before but this was our first time together with the solids. She likes to lunge for the spoon and chew on it, but i’m not sure she’s figured out that she’s supposed to eat its contents yet. today’s picture brought to you by the lovely and talented kelly. <3
