Applesauce


Who needs a spoon?? Without a doubt Vaughn learned this technique from his Daddy. Every morning Arron feeds Vaughn cereal and yogurt. If Vaughn doesn't finish the yogurt, Arron "drinks" what is left in the container.

1st day of school!




Daddy was appointed as the dropper-offer for Vaughn this morning at daycare. Vaughn surprised us all! He clung to Daddy's leg for about 30 seconds and then walked into his room, picked up 2 toy cars and shared one with Miss Rose. Daddy took that opportunity to leave.

Mommy picked up Vaughn in the afternoon. He looked right at her as she walked in the room, yelled 'Da-Da' (which is his generic term to address all adults) and then ran to the other side of the room. The teachers said he was so good all day. However, he was not interested in eating lunch or drinking milk.

He ate graham crackers all the way home and then consumed 30 ounces of milk in 3 hours! We are now in the market for a dairy cow...Unfortunately, Mommy neglected to bring home the sacred Sleepy Giraffe, which is spending the night in Vaughn's cubby at school. Sleepy #2 did not arrive via UPS today and the poor attempts at substitutes were (not suprisingly) shunned.

Bath time


The bath water has been drawn...I know he's around here somewhere...Vaughn, where are you??

Marlin and Vaughn


Marlin manages to smile (briefly) for yet another pose with Vaughn. Marlin likes to retreat outside for a break from the little ball of energy that attacks him so often. Unfortunately, Marlin has an intestinal worm (another one...) that he picked up from the "wildlife" in our backyard. A trip to the vet has Marlin on the mend! (And, Vaughn climbed onto the animal scale while we were at the vet and weighs 24 lbs. 8 oz.)

Dancing to Dave Matthews


Mom, did you put mousse in my hair??

I can do it myself, thank you very much!




Vaughn attempts to feed himself applesauce. Most of it ended up on his face/clothes, the tray and the floor.

Marlin & Wesley


Uncle Wes came to visit Marlin for a long weekend with Grandma Ginny. Marlin senses that his best buddy is about to drive back to Virginia :(
