new photos!

OK, i got really lazy with the whole flickr thing and they cutoff the pics at 200 so I finally got around to setting up an internal gallery on this site. New Molly shots can be found in the gallery

Ok, yes it’s been months since I posted anything. Turns out this fatherhood takes some time and effort… who woulda thunk it? I had assumed life would continue as usual with just an extra plate at the dinner table. But oh no…

Molly’s growing like a weed. She’s already outgrown all of her newborn stuff, 0-3, and a lott of the 3-6. She’s tall and lanky… we can’t figure it out either… She’s laughing, conversing, grabby, curious, giggly, spoiled, and cat-loving. Ok, there’s much more to say but I’m terrible at wrap-ups, I’ll try to do better at keeping a more active blog.

Here’s a batch of shots from the past couple months. I’m still a sporadic and sparse photographer at best.

We went to Kate’s family on xmas eve and had our parents over to our house on xmas day. I’m still too tired to write much more, but here’s some pics!

At some point (and we’re looking at mid January right now) we’re going to have to put Molls in daycare for a couple days a week. We’re hoping to work it out so that once the semester starts up, she’s in daycare for 2 days of the week (they have daycare right at the college so our fingers are crossed that they’ll have an opening in the spring since that would be ideal).

So anyway, we know that she’s going to have to take a bottle at some point, so we started experimenting with giving her a bottle. We tried a few different nipples, and had a bit of a rough start (see below), but we found one that she seems to take just fine.

We do believe this is the first photographic evidence of the elusive transformation of normal, happy baby into Crank Monster. The amazing transformation takes but a fraction of the second, but with the miracle of a high-speed camera and time-lapse photography (with no Photoshop thrown in at all…) we were able to capture the mysterious, un-provoked transformation:

Crikey!
