Posting pics

Keeping a blog seems like such a good idea. However, you do really need to remember how to log on and how to add photos and such. Otherwise you just keep thinking, " I should really update that blog, but I can't remeber how to do it!" That is about as much of an appology as I'm willing to make right now for not keeping this thing updated. If I get better at blogging Temple's fans will have more place to criticize our tardyness at updating.

Anyway, Temple has been growing like a beansalk. He's already over 27" tall and around 16 1/2 lbs. He can roll over on his own both back to front and front to back. He's talking up a storm, smiling at everyone and chewing avidly. He's still an easy baby. He doesn't cry much unless he needs something. The notable exception being when he's fighting going to sleep.

Of course if you read this site you already know all of that. The real reason anybody logs on to this site is to look at the pictures of a very cute baby! So here are the goods.

Not very current but still one of my favorites.

It's really warm here in Mississippi, so you can go out running in January without really having to dress up much. This works out well for both me and Temple. I like to take him so that I can set a good example of an active lifestyle. I'm not sure he's getting it though, because every time we go out he falls asleep within three minutes and stay's asleep during the entire run. Oh well, at least I found a way to calm him down when he's really grumpy.

I also has some interesting observations while running with Temple. I don't know if my impressions are very accurate, they are just impressions, but I guess people aren't used to seeing runners around here very often because I could have been pushing a flying saucer for the looks I got. The other thing that struck me as funny was the number of people who asked me, "Is that your baby?" I'm not sure who elses baby the would expect me to be pushing around in a contraption that they clearly felt was bizzare. I don't see dads holding their babies very much , and I get a lot of looks (most of them very positive) when I cary Temple around in the Snuggly too. So I guess I'm just seen as a bit eccentric and I would hope that Temple is just seen a lucky boy who gets to spend quality time with his dad.
