Month in Review: March 2011

In which we start the month with a trip to the coast, Louisa starts smiling, and we celebrate some birthdays.

Month in Review: March 2010

In March we found and purchased our first home. Most of the month was spent packing and signing papers. Inen had his first haircut this month.

March Recap, Part 5: Inen's Happy, Mommy's Not

Inen had a blowout. He was thrilled. He squealed with delight as Korie changed him. Korie may have squealed when she changed him, but it probably wasn't with delight.

March Recap, Part 4: Inen's First Word

Another big first happened in the month of March: Inen's first word. This happened on the same day that he sat up by himself for the first time. (Through 15 minutes of story time!) On March 17, Inen said "Dada." Some skeptics will tactlessly respond "Oh, but that's just a sound that he's making. Lot's of babies say dada, but they don't know what they're saying." Those who would so flippantly rebut an excited father declaring his son's first word to be the ubiquitous paternal epithet are nothing but cold-hearted and soulless lamentable excuses for humanity. (Can you tell I had that happen?) I have plenty of evidence to support this first word theory, chief among them being that Korie says so. Behold:

March Recap, Part 3: In 'n' Out

So one night Korie was feeding Inen, and I guess he just needed to make room. Each time Korie would give him a bite to eat, he would hunker down in this strained position to try to push something out in order to make room for what was coming in. Hilarious! Poor little guy... :)

March Recap, Part 2: A Good Laugh

You can't help but laugh at a baby giggling. Especially not at Inen giggling. So if you need a good laugh, take a look at this:

March Recap, Part 1: Epicurian Opinions

Inen had only been eating solid food for like a month at the time this video was taken, and already he has culinary opinions. Here's Inen commenting on the squash I was feeding him.

It's time again for the monthly slide show!

Below we have tidbits from Inen's first March. I will be following up on this with a few video posts from March as well, so stay tuned!
