Naked-Baby Fun Time!

Sean likes to play a little before his bath, then he can be tired & ready for bed afterwards.

The Secret to Sean's Muscle-Bound Physique

Yes, ladies 'n gents, he's doin' push ups.

Brush Only the Ones You Want to Keep

We introduced Sean to his toothbrush tonight, and he really liked it. It kept him occupied during his entire bath and he didn't even touch any of his bath toys.

Ready for Takeoff

The Bird(well) Man from Alcatraz

If by "Alcatraz" you mean crib. Sean was just enjoying standing up in his crib with Daddy. He keeps trying to pull himself up and out too.

Hello, Eight Months... with Six-Month Shots

Now that Sean's healthy again, we had to go back to the pediatrician for the sixth-month checkup and vaccinations that we missed when he got sick with RSV. Sean's height and weight were pretty much the same as a couple of weeks ago, except that he "lost" about 0.5 pound. This was probably due to the fact that last time we weighed Sean with clothes and today he only had a diaper when he went on the scale. Sean did great with the shots and calmed down very quickly after he started crying. I had brought a lot of toys to distract him.

The doc told me that Sean's doing very well developmentally and I had to fight the proud momma urge to say, "Well, of course! He's a smart baby!" ;)

Laptime at the Library

Well, for Sean's eighth month birthday, we were pretty busy. We went to a local library where they have "Laptime" for infants. There were some toddlers there as well. Sean was fascinated by all the other babies because he has never seen so many in one place before. Not too interested in the nursery rhymes from the librarian.

There was playtime after laptime, and Sean liked this toy. Sean also wanted to touch the other babies, but I had to keep him from poking another infant's eye.
