The other day, he was staring at this grape....

That's a reference to comedian David Cross' routine about how parents become overly interested in their child and think that everyone will find detailed descriptions of their every move absolutely fascinating. Well, I currently spend at least 8 hours a day home alone with our dear little one, who makes lots of cute baby noises but is otherwise not big on conversation, so I guess I'm starting to get pretty excited that he is beginning to look at things. He hasn't looked at any grapes yet, but here he is looking at his toy.In case you want to see an action shot of the above picture, click here (I'm sure at least the grandparents will find this one fascinating!).

Lest you think I'm not doing my physical therapy duties, here he is practicing his tummy time.
And to Tom's mom Joy and her comment about the beautiful sunrise pics...That's one of the best parts about winter in Alaska....even though Pax helps me to be plenty sleep deprived, we haven't missed a sunrise yet!
