So Sophisticated!

Dave captured this photo when he was playing with Dexter. I think it might be one of my favorites. There’s something so innocent and comfortable about the photo, as if the camera wasn’t even there.

Dexter believes anything that lands in his mouth is his to keep … even the spoon that delivers the food. He’ll hold it like this until he gives me a little yell for not putting more food on the spoon.

This is a habit we need to break soon, but in the meantime the spoon chomp-down is keeping us quite entertained!

Now that Dexter is 8 months, do you think he looks like more Mommy or Daddy?

The last time we did this poll was at 4 months (here) and Daddy won 63% to Mommy’s 37%.

Dexter has had so many milestones in the last 8 months, it’s about time he celebrate someone else’s.

Dexter says, “Happy 75th Birthday, Great Grandma Carol. I love you!”

Those words are a direct translation from bahbahbahbahbahbah.

I came home the other day to find this beautifully constructed tower. I was sure it solidified Dexter’s future as an architect like Mommy … until I actually saw his interest in the tower.

Maybe, instead, Daddy should pick up a minor in architecture while at med school.
