thanksgiving!!!!

first off, oscar finally got a chance to rock his jordan 1's from tito alex. i can hear it now...his first word is gonna be, "iknowyoudidn'tjuststeponmynewjordans!!!!"

thanksgiving was officially kicked off by grandpa....

i cooked a turkey this year for the first time, i was quite proud of myself.


but it was really marquita and her mom who did a fantastic job cooking everything else.

the guests included from left to right, my old friend neil, grandma, grandpa, mom, our good friend stephanie, and a buddy of mine from work who is here from scotland, andrew

aside from those bits of lemon we've been torturing the boy with, he had his first taste of real solids today, mom's mash pataters. he had no problem putting down a few bites:) probably because there's enough butter and cream in 'em to put down an elephant.

last but not least, the little guy is getting thrown into the wild this week. his first day of daycare. but let's be honest and call it what it is, immune system conditioning. both mom and i were a little bit nervous, but he did awesome.

Mommy's Birthday!

even though oscar had on his lucky hat, the mighty wolverines still couldn't pull it together. did you know of all the college fans in the US, michigan alumni have the least faith in their football team?

sexy...kind of...
i call this look, "you want to take my son to _________?" you can fill in the blank with anything really. mountain biking, off-roading, snowboarding, o'farrell theater... i have a rough road ahead of me as you can see.
for momma's birthday, we went out to R & G lounge for chinese!

marquita's dad came into town to finally rescue mom from oscar:)
it's a little young for him to stop listening to my words of wisdom...but i love him all the same :)

Oscar loves to be naked for some reason, but after a recent bath we felt it was best to make him wear a robe...then we discovered that it's a wee bit short for him.







Check out his new camo PJ's. :-)

He can't read yet, but he LOVES looking at the pictures. He starts kicking his legs and grabbing for the book and makes all these loud grunts. I think in his world, this means something.
