Splish, Splash!

Cabin Fever!

As the rest of the city shut down during the Austin storm 2007, we stayed indoors for about 4 days straight! Roman was getting bored so we took him out for a few minutes to see the slight flurries. He tried to taste it.

We also had to get creative though! so he had fun hanging out in a laundry basket.

Ugh! Another Ear Infection!

Well, Roman got another ear infection. This is his 4th since he was 3 months old. He is now 8 months old. But he is a champ about it, eating and sleeping ok. He doesn't seem to slow down.

We were supposed to visit his aunt Patty in New Orleans this weekend (MLK weekend) but both Roman and daddy were not feeling 100% so we postponed. They took this time to relax and get better.

New toys!

Roman got some new toys from his cousins in Houston for Christmas. He is still in the phase of putting everything he can get his hands in his mouth.

Happy New Year!

Prospero Año Nuevo!

Mamí, daddy, and Roman celebrated New Year's Eve by getting dressed up and heading out to dinner. We went to Suzi's Kitchen nearby. It was great. Roman was a perfect dinner companion. He had his meal (pureed mixed vegetables/rice cereal with breastmilk) and then tried some white rice. He hasn't really perfected his pincer grasp (which lets him pick up small objects between his thumb and forefinger) but he gives it the old college try. Check out the pics. daddy thinks that he looks like an Amway salesperson looking to close a deal!
