Wonder Baby Wednesday: Puma Boy!

Wonder Baby Powers, activate! Form of...Puma Boy!

He got this Puma outfit for Christmas. It feels super cozy!  I love that he is trying to get the viewer in this shot -- or at least the camera.

It's been a while since I've posted, and as you can see, Oskar is getting bigger every day. Eme is too, obviously; it just happens that this is a Wednesday so it's Oskar's turn. I'll post a new Eme pic soon.

Wonder Toddler Thursday -- Roadtrip!

Wonder Toddler Powers, activate! Form of...Road Warrior!

On our recent roadtrip, Eme was a total trooper. She didn't complain even once during the 6-ish hour drive (that's each way), and she even helped entertain Oskar, who did complain multiple times during the drive.

Here we are, stopped for a lunch break, testing Andreas' theory that Sheetz is not so much a "gas station with food," but rather a "restaurant that also happens to sell gasoline."

Wonder Baby Wednesday -- Halloween Baby

We ended up not doing a costume this year, but thanks to Aunt Amy we did have a cute Halloween outfit to put him in.

Happy boy.

Pennsic XL memories

For those to whom I've promised Pennsic photos:

Emelie in the "ger that dad built"


Oskar as "sir not appearing in this film"


Everyone having a good time.


Thanks to all who made Pennsic wonderful this year!

It's no wonder at all

People have been telling me that Oskar really looks a lot like Eme. I didn't see it until I looked back at some pics of Eme when she was about the age he is now.

One of these is Eme in November 2008. The other is Oskar a few days ago, in October 2011.

Can you guess which is which?




If you're having trouble, here's a hint:



Of course, I can see the differences -- Oskar's face is more oval and Eme's chin comes to more of a point. Eme's ears are slightly longer. But it's no question that they do bear a strong resemblance to each other, and no wonder -- they have the same parents!

On a side note, why has it been so long since my last post? That was rhetorical, but I'll just say that the answer is pictured above. :)

Wonder Baby Wednesday -- Easter already?

Remember that episode of The State when the little boy was so cute, and they put puppy ears on him, and ended up having to use emergency measures to keep the grandma from eating the boy because he was so cute?

This is a little bit like that.

Wonder Baby Wednesday -- first foods

Yes, he's trying baby foods now, and he seems to be enjoying himself thoroughly!
