Garin Photos

General info about April: Garin now has 4 teeth (two top, two bottom). He likes to eat apples, carrots, cucumber, and melon. He doesn't crawl yet, but he does this prairie-dog like thing where he's sitting in one place, then you turn around and when you turn back, he's popped up in another place. He's mobile, just not with much specific intent yet. And he has learned to wave! It's very cute, but we don't have any pictures.

Here he is showing off his "almost crawl":
The weather has been beautiful so we've been outside hanging out with friends a lot.

Sorry about the teaser that there would be lots of posts with the Austin photos, turns out real life is busier than vacation so we haven't had time to work on the blog. In any case, here are more photos from Austin:

First, Garin got to meet some babies whose parents were in childbirth class with us. Here he is with Milo and with Ingrid, both of whom were born in early August (Garin is just absurdly large for his age).












And speaking of large, Willie the cat gave Garin a run for his money in the heavyweight department:












It's an Austin tradition to take photos with the bluebonnets (Texas state flower). Lucky us, we were there at the right time of year. (And yes, that's a stuffed bat in the boy's mouth - Austin is home to the largest urban bat colony in the U.S., maybe in the world, don't remember.)















Last but not least, he enjoyed gambling and going out for margaritas. As any six month old should.

We'll post a couple posts of pictures from Austin, here's the first, focused on Aunt Andria & Uncle Alan's wedding . . .
