Just who is this enigma named Fuzzy Bee?"

Commuting with Daddy!

Today probably will be the last day using the Baby Bjorn because our new Ergo should arrive today!  Hopefully it will be more comfy for the little guy.

Brrrrrr...

Looks like it's going to be a cold week, so we may need to bust out the tanooki suit to make sure that Gary doesn't freeze on the way to daycare.  Here he is rocking the tanooki the week before Christmas:

Happy New Year!

Gary started off New Year's Eve with a light snack.

Then we had an early party with Aunt Laurie, Uncle David, and cousins Kim and Chris.  Gary had so much fun meeting some of his relatives from Rochester, and he can't wait to meet the rest!  Check him out wearing one of the outfits he received for Christmas.

Gary didn't make it until midnight -- he was asleep at 7:30.  Mommy took a nap, and daddy woke her up at 11:30 to have some "champagne" and greet 2012.

On New Year's Day we spent time with our friends Kent and Anastassia, who live in Annapolis.  Our friend Laurie also stopped by.  After Gary took a long nap, we had some play time!

Today we went to Grandma and Grandpa M.'s house.  Gary spent time exploring the house with Grandpa and snuggling with Grandma.  Mommy and daddy ate duk gook (with some mandu thrown in for good measure) for the new year!

A Sign?

This is what we saw when we left daycare yesterday.

Mommy officially went back to work today.  What an adjustment!

Merry Christmas!

We spent Christmas day with Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Michele, Uncle Paul, and Cousin Henry.  Gary loved his presents, particularly the special picture of him and Henry.  (It already is on display in his bedroom.)  He also had so much fun that he made his way through three sleepers.  What a party animal!

Happy Christmas Eve (and Four-Month Birthday)!

Gary's four-month birthday coincided with Christmas Eve.  We had celebrated both events in Virginia Beach with Grandma, Aunt Shannon, Uncle Matt, and Buster.  Gary received very nice presents -- his favorites were Tommy the turtle, Ozzie the octopus, and Scout the puppy.  It was a fun day, and he was pretty tired at the end of it!
