dinner time!

I did it! I finally figured out how to get a video on the blog!! YAY! However, the quality is quite poor and papi's phone rings loudly in the middle of filming. We'll have to try it again later this week...but for now, enjoy a short video of Xavier eating peas for the first time. They're mixed with his rice cereal...in case you were wondering why it looks so yucky.

Happy Chinese New Year!

What a busy weekend! After a day of shopping and a date on Saturday, we went on to attend a very nice Chinese New Year's party at the home of Teddy's family (Teddy is in Daniel's M. Lab group) . Thanks to Teddy and his parents for having us over! This was the perfect opportunity for Xavier to wear one of his new outfits. This one is from The Red Balloon. It was a hit!

At first he just sat around and tried to follow the conversation, but soon he was laughing it up with the crowd. He apparently had some pretty funny jokes to tell.

He made his rounds and enjoyed the celebration.

By the end of the night he was a little too relaxed and was kicking up his feet and trying to steal some food. We had to send him off to bed soon after. He thanks everyone for an enjoyable night out.

An afternoon of shopping ends in intense conversation at "Hot Chocolate". Pippi played hard to get, but Xavier might have convinced her to go on another date. We'll see. Click here to check out the full story. There are more pictures...

Growing like a weed

Ok, so this morning I dressed Xavier in a 3-6 month romper. Tell me, am I in denial? It's worse when he sits, he had to suck in his belly to get it to button up...just kidding!



At 20 weeks I have had to put away his 3-6 month clothes and pull out the 6-9 month clothes. Is 20 weeks offically 5 months or do I have to wait until February 7 to call it 5 months? February is a short month anyway, so he's really only a month early in making the switch. His feet are also size HUGE...




Really though we are just happy he is so "healthy". Here is another picture in something that actually fits. We'll post pictures later of some of his favorite 6-9 month clothes.
