Wild Music -- Captured on Video

Mason, Max and I went back to the NC Museum of Natural Sciences with friends this morning. We happened to get in the way of a local camera crew and ended up as the "folks enjoying that parabolic microphone" in this video:

You have to watch a little over 2 minutes to get to us. Max makes a funny face at the reporter.

Teeth!

Max has been drooling a lot lately and putting just about everything in his mouth. Now we know why...




He has two teeth in the bottom front. Ouch!

Food -- The Adventure Begins

Max had his first taste of solid food this morning, delicious rice cereal mixed with formula. He wasn't sure what was going on, but he seemed pleased with the result. (Yes, we know it's not Monday; he doesn't seem to care what day is indicated on his bib.)

Getting ready.


The first taste.


Mmmmmmmm.


I think I like it.


More please.

Life is Exhausting

Our boys at around 8:30 pm last night...

Photoshop Elements















I just got Adobe Photoshop Elements and I'm experimenting a little...feeling a bit Warhol-esque this evening. I'm hoping to do more digital scrapbooking as I figure out how this program works. Fun, fun, fun.

Our little music man





It may look like Mason is a sound tech in training, but he's really enjoying the Wild Music exhibition at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences. Click on one of the photos to see more. Or go to www.naturalsciences.org for more information about the museum and the exhibit.

What's this, Grandpa?



Maybe that's not the best way to show him how a gun works...

Happy 4th of July!



We celebrated Independence Day by attending festivities at the State Capitol. There was music, dancing, Civil War Soldiers, and helicopters. Mason had a great time "driving" the helicopter. Grandma Fran and Grandpa Bob visited us for the week from Whidbey Island, WA. Click on the photo above to see more from the holiday and their visit.
