Apologies from Mose's mama...

Between Mose's near-mobility, and Mama's teaching schedule, and Papa's band-schedule... it has been hard to find the time to blog. We apologize.


Things here have been GREAT! (if sniffly)


We've had wonderful visits with Nana and also Grammy and Gramps.


Nana bought Mose a big new chair (see picture), and took him to see the dinosaurs.


Grammy and Gramps bought Mose a duck, and took him to see the giant paintings and a funny house.


Mose appreciates history and culture. Yes he does.


But he also appreciates when people buy him stuff!


(How RUDE!)


UPDATE-- Rats! Blogger is being weird with the pics! If you want more Mose, visit FLICKR!

The girlfriends...

Mose went to his first party yesterday, to celebrate his friend Gianni's first birthday... and there was cake, and balloons and cherry puffs and fruit punch...


And there were LADIES!


And let me tell you, the ladies like MOSE!


Annie and Bea are both pretty cute chicas, but Mose says he loves his mama best of all.


Oh, Mose... your mama loves you too.

Mose gets his war on...

Mose is quite the little reader.


Yes indeed... we find little bits of paper everywhere he goes... and the books are often moist when Mose gets finished "reading" them...


In general, he's not picky about the books he "reads", but there *is one book in particular... one book Mose loves best of all. One book Mose actually looks at, turns the pages of... instead of just devouring.


GET YOUR WAR ON! (By David Rees)


The most obvious reason for this is that it's black and red (the colors babies love best) and the cover feels nice and slick and shiny, and then too... it's full of pictures!!! Red pictures!!! Mose loves pictures.


But we prefer to think that Mose is also a little radical. A sarcastic sumbitch with a sharp sense of humor and a critical eye on the current political administration...


We hope Soft Skull will consider a board book version of GYWO, a Rees Reader for the little ones...


A drool proof edition.


It would last longer.
