Sugar Coated Bad News

"Cordon, what do you think about Dad being laid off?"

Going For The Gold

When I was pregnant my Aunt warned me that "my brand of baby was going to come with a hose." So far that hose has soaked many things including the wall and Chris. However, last night Cordon pulled out all the stops. Chris was stripping him down for a bath and Cordon started to pee. The stream did a beautiful arch right onto Cordons face. Of course this surprised and scared him so he stopped peeing. That is a talent to brag about, "I can pee on my own face."

Snowboarding At Its Finest

Chris and I went snowboarding this weekend. There were only 4 runs open and you can see it was mostly mud. We still had tons of fun though. Especially since it was 70 degrees.

6 Months and Counting

Cordon is 6 months. He just gets more and more fun everyday. I love how curious he is about everything. He has an attention span of about 2 seconds then he wants to learn about something new. I spend most of my day moving him to different places in the house with different toys. He is sitting and getting close to crawling. Cordon loves Bud and laughs and smiles every time Bud comes into view. Bud is doing so good with Cordon, he is very gentle with him. Bud has even learned to be quiet when Cordon is sleeping. The other day Cordon was in bed and Bud heard a noise outside. He barked then suddenly turned around and gave us a "sorry, I forgot" sort of look.
