Sweet! Potatoes

Simon ate his first real food last night and he loved it. Sweet potatoes are great! He had absolutely no problems knowing what to do and got excited when we came to him with another spoonful. He wasn't great about swallowing everything he got since he wanted to still chew on his fingers while he was eating. We gave him the spoon at the end (a soft baby spoon) and he knew just what to do with it - eat it!

Somber Simon

A long, sad day with lots of new people. But still lots of laughs.

Folks have been saying he looks bigger in the pictures, so I have one of standing at my normal height looking down on him. He is pretty small still.

Muahahaha!

It is evil Simon!! You can tell by the mustache.
(Thanks Jenn)

Good morning Grandpa Basque

Sweeney Thanksgiving!

The Sweeney's came into town for Colleen's birthday and we had the first Thanksgiving in the new house. Look at that Kitchen! The island was the perfect serving location and we had plenty of room (as you can see). What a wonderful new house we have! After the jump are more pictures.
