Baby and Raspberries
On his 10 month birthday, we tried raspberries - and a new inexpensive digital video camera. Definitely like the raspberries and the camera. The clean up went well, by the way. And now, Mommy and Nicorette are back so everyone's happy...

Hey look, he writes too.
Thought I'd actually write a few paragraphs since it's 5:40 am and I'm up again. Once I get my 4 or 5 hours of sleep, I'm good. Nah, not really. I'm usually tired and sometimes pass out while giving the baby a bottle, but it's OK since I haven't dropped him yet. I think he bounces, though since he's a boy. Dunno.
So for Thanksgiving, Nicorette is going with the wife to Cleveland to visit her family and I'm staying with Nicotine Jr (all 10 months of him) in Orlando. It made more sense since we waited too long to make travel plans and I'm lacking key vacation time. The wife is still on her job search and we've been on once income for a number of months. Luckily, I can go days without food. Actually, she's close with a few companies including the old one. One of them should work out soon, or I may have to sell my computer and drop internet access. Or, I guess I can sell some of my rapidly declining stocks. I was lucky enough to put away a decent amount for a rainy day. And Orlando is the lightning capital of the U.S.
I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. For my Canadian friends, I hope you have a good Thursday. I'll be doing takeout and trying to see how much turkey a 10 month old can eat so he'll sleep through the night and into the morning.

Over 5000 hits on YouTube
Hard to believe...but this video of Nicorette reciting Humpty Dumpty has received over 5000 hits. This is by far my most popular video. If you look closely, you can see that the car is moving and I'm driving while taking this video. Don't try that. Really. I was lucky to frame her in the video since I was watching the road while filming. But it all worked out. I still find it amusing. Anyway, if you haven't seen this one, join the crowd and check it out...

Pledge of Allegiance
I felt I was neglecting Nicorette so I gave her an assignment. She had to do the Pledge of Allegiance in 15 seconds. She hit it with a few seconds to spare and was so happy. Watch her reaction...

Baby making funny sounds
I'm sure you guys are getting bored with this...but I'm amused and that's all that matters! My favorite part is his smile towards the end - he knows he did a good job.

Nicotine Jr laughing
It's hard to tell from the low quality video, but Nicotine Jr has reached a giggling stage. That a fun time. Makes it easier not to take work so seriously. Though I have a meeting later today. Hard to be too stressed when there's a giggling baby in the house. Oh, and I mean giggling in a manly baby sort of way. Not a wimpy baby thing...
