baby tricks

my daddy is so silly! i think he likes playing with toys more than me. i am not really into toys right now. i prefer to sleep instead. daddy on the other hand has many toys. one of his favorites is his camcorder. he is constantly shooting videos of me. when i was a week old, mommy taught me to stick out my tongue on cue. daddy captured one of these moments on video.

infant info

my peeps (aka parents) tell me that i have many groupies on the internet. some are comfortable around infants like me, while others aren't as sure. for those of you that would like to know more, OSU has some great educational materials. check it out.

five days old

i love sleeping next to mom and dad. the rhythmic sounds of their breathing and heart beating are very comforting. daddy often falls asleep with me too. wow, i didn't realize how small i was!
