Stripes

We are waiting for a cold streak to hit here, and I was told to take advantage of the 'good' weather while we have it, but the good weather is actually quite cold and windy. It is hard to pull out of the cozy, warm apartment and head out into it, but it is pretty great to get out the house at least once a day.

Before we headed out, I snapped mr. v in his mr. stripy outfit. That cute bib was a gift from a deputy director general of the IAEA. Spiffy, huh?



We went for just a walk around the ring, and mr. v was grumpy before we left. About 10 minutes into it he fell asleep - stayed out for only 20 minutes - and then woke up screaming and crying the rest of the way. All that would calm him was being held, which was very hard on me. Holding a slippery baby (slippery because of his little snow outfit) and steering a stroller in some pretty strong head winds was not easy or fun. Here is a nice shot of him between whining and crying, I captured the grumpy, 'I am not having fun' face.



As soon as we got home and I laid him out on the bed to remove his snow suit, he began with the giggles and smiles. Jerk.



Then once Andi came home, I decided to head out on my own for the same walk (I am trying to lose some of this pregnancy weight, so I am trying to get some exercise in every day) and as soon as I got back from the walk I got a big smile from the guy and he matched me grunt for grunt for a nice 2 minute conversation. He is a cutey, but man alive sometimes. I swear. Sometimes.

We visited Andi for yoga and lunch yesterday, where Vin was shot doing what he does best. I thought it would be fun for you to see why we have a bit more laundry in the hamper these days:
