My Funny Valentine

Naparama

West got a special treat this weekend - a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Ahearn! They spoiled him and were the inspiration for his first trip to Napa. As you can see, he took to them like a duck to water.



A sommelier in the making:


West especially loved his first room service experience in Grandma & Grandpa's swanky hotel room. The king-size bed was a particular hit.

Super Bowl Sunday

Fashionista

As you can see, West has been wearing his new converse crib shoes (and fabulous French ensemble) out! His hipster cred is firmly established - now we just have to maintain.

So Many Videos, So Little Time

A quick update:

Bathtime is still fun. West can even pull himself up to standing from a seated position while in the tub. Yikes!

Swings are sort of fun. West was unconvinced during this session, his first time taking a swing for a spin. We are hoping he comes around.

Yoga is awesome! West is especially proud of his proficiency at the downward-facing dog pose.

Slides are just all right ... so far. This was only his second attempt and, of course, Daddy slowed him down and ruined all the fun.

West's latest trick is babbling. Consonants are apparently the most fun of all! You can listen to a sample of his conversational brilliance here. He appears to be an L man.

Mind Your Peas and Q's

Here are some photos of West's first foray into peas. As you can see, they were a hit! We've since taken to calling him "Greenbeard." His favorite foods so far, though, are pears and avocado. He is developing quite the palette - we have high hopes.

A Star is Born

Eureka! I found a single photo from West's photo shoot on the photographer's blog. I don't think she would appreciate my posting it on this site but you can see it here. Her name is Andrea Scher and she was terrific! Speesees, the company that invited West to wear their darling clothes and play with the other incredibly adorable and completely sweet kids, is pretty amazing as well. You can check out their line of organic, fair trade baby clothes & accessories here.
