Olivia Newton-Bubs

I bought Robert some new shorts that look delightfully similar to the running/workout shorts popular in the 70's.  Combine them with the 80 degree weather we are experiencing here in the middle of March, it seemed like the perfect time to "get in shape." See him below as he works his little rear for every penny spent on those shorts.


Dressed and ready to go....


Stretch that leg.


Rest.


Stretch those arms.


And rest.


The big work out!  Stand Bubby, stand!!!


The dismount....


Success! Celebrating with a clap.


Cooling down on Momi's leg.  What a workout!

Ear Infection

Robert got sent home from day care today with a fever.  I was able to get him into a doctor's appointment and found out he has a double ear infection.  Robert had his first ear infection 2 1/2 months ago, but it was mild and only in one ear.  This time it's in both ears and is much more severe.  I wish I could explain to him what's wrong and how we're fixing it.  I wish he could understand that I'm doing everything I can to make him feel better.
According to my Mom, neither my brother or I had had ear infections growing up.  Pat and all of his brothers, on the other hand, had multiple infections.  I can only assume Robert is going to take after his father in this area...

Baby Food

 Graham crackers, raspberries and string cheese

Tuna steak with mango chutney



 Split pea soup.









 And cake.


Bubby loves to eat.  He's a brave eater.  He'll try anything.  Robert has had an eye on "adult" food since he was two months old.  He was sucking on pizza and smoothies before it's recomended babies eat rice cereal.  Some may think we're bad parents for bawlking the process, but if he wants it and it doesn't hurt him....why not.  It's not like we only feed him ice cream and french fries.  He loves berries, cheese, fish, and water.  That boy cannot get enough water.





Side note: February has came and went with no Spruce Deuce in sight...  We're not "actively trying," but we're not trying not to.  We'll see what March brings.
