Bumbo

I had the thought today to pull out the Bumbo and see if Easton could sit up in it. Sure enough, he sat there like a champ. Despite the very serious look on his face, he did like it.
For the past two weeks, Easton has been constantly chewing on his hands. And if your shoulder happens to be in licking range, it will become soaked quickly by baby drool.
Cousin Autumn wanted in on the picture action. She loves her cousin "Baby Easton."

3 Months

A little late is better than never! Here is Easton's 3 Month picture. He is getting bigger and bigger all the time! He just started to really laugh this past weekend. It is so cute! I think I have a video of it that I will try to get to share with all of you.


This is a picture from Jason's Birthday excursion. He looks like a little teenager, rocking out Jason's hat. They grow up so fast...

Happy Birthday Jason!

Jason is 27 today! Yesterday, Jason the baby and I went to Bellefonte, PA. If you are unfamiliar with Bellefonte, it is an old victorian town which just happens to have a good fishing stream that runs through it. Jason went fishing for a few hours during the afternoon and I hung around town with the baby. The baby and I ate lunch at the cafe at the park and then read a book on a bench in the park. Well I read a book, while he slept. We then had a nice dinner at a little restaurant. It was a nice little trip. (Sorry. No pictures. Too lazy.)

Jason insisted on taking the dogs, so I found a dog friendly B&B. http://www.mccaffertyhouse.com/
It was nice to have the option to leave the dogs in the house while we were out. That night, I fed the baby around 2am. Sadie really wanted to go out, so I took the dogs out and they instantly went to the bathroom. We came back in and went back to bed. I heard someone up and about until about 2am. It turns out the man who owns the house took too long of a nap after golf that day and couldn't sleep that night. So I was accustomed to hearing things all through the night. I thought I heard the door to our room shut at 3am. I looked around, thought it was odd and then went back to bed.

I then woke up again around 4:30am to feed Easton. Marabelle kept coming up to me. I then wondered where Sadie was. I looked around the room and I didn't see her. I thought that she was sleeping under the bed, as she sometimes does at home. Nope, no Sadie under the bed. I was thinking to myself, "How could I lose a dog in one room, with the door shut." I decided it was time to wake Jason.

I woke Jason up by saying, "I can't find Sadie." He sat straight up in bed. He then started flailing all 4 extremities as if he was looking for her wildly in the sheets for her. He then thought that she could have gone on the roof and possibly jumped off, since I had opened the window more at 2am. In his underwear, he climbed out onto the roof of the porch (you can see it on the picture on the website). No Sadie. I decided that I should check outside.

I opened our door to the room and stepped outside. I noticed that the floor right outside the room was really warm. I then called for her one more time. She came running. Apparently the warm spot was where she had been lying outside our door. She probably got up and started to search for other ways to get back into the room when she heard us looking for her.

So how did she get outside the door? Did I not shut the door all the way when I let them out at 2am? Did someone open our door and let her out? How did the door get shut again? Did the wind from the window shut the door? We may never know...

Passwords

I wasn't sure if you needed the passwords to view the albums from the last entry. Apparently, you do. (Thanks for telling me Katie.) "Greatgrandparents" is the password for the first two albums and "beach" is the password for the last one. Enjoy.

Sicher Family (Extended Version)

This is a picture from vacation in Florida. This is 4 generations of Sicher men right here. Pictured left to right are Grandpa David, Easton, Great-Grandpap Guido and Jason.

Here Easton is hanging out (making a silly face) with Great-Grandma Rosie and Great-Grandpap Guido.

We had a fantastic time in Florida with Easton's Great-Grandparents! Thank you for all the hospitality. Now if you could just send some more warm weather up our way, it would be greatly appreciated.

I finally have the pictures from Ft. Lauderdale and Sebring uploaded. You will have to excuse my lack of editing the pictures. There is just no time for that!

Talking with Mr. Lamby


Easton has been smiling and talking a lot more recently. It is very entertaining to watch him. After about half an hour of having a detailed conversation with a dangling lamb on his rocking seat, I finally grabbed the camera. Enjoy the show. It is very cute!


I also found this video from January 17th. It is kind of fun to see just how much he has changed in just a couple months.

Finally some pictures!

This is Easton hanging out with great-grandpap Guido.
Yesterday, Eason was kicking back in the sunroom for a nap.

Easton was all smiles in Ft. Lauderdale for Michelle.

Mommy and Babe

Kyra did airplane with me, and now I've gone cross-eyed.

Not a bad view for a morning coffee.

I stuck Easton's feet in the sand to get a picture of the imprint.

Oh the faces he makes.

Spirited baby turned angel baby.
