I had a blast at Abbie's Bat Mitzvah

Everyone knows I'm the utlimate party animal. Here are some pictures with me and my family from my cousin Abbie's Bat Mitzvah yesterday!

Yay for fluffy comforters

"Ma-ma!!"

Yesterday was an important day - I said "mama" for the first time! I have no idea if I understood what I was saying, but I've said it a few times since then. In honor of my first word, here's a video of my abba prodding me to speak gibberish.

Talk about putting your foot in your mouth

I love the Cubs

Even though they are miserable, my abba insists that I root for the Cubs this upcoming year, so I donned some parephernelia the other day.

Fun with feet and Uncle Jonas

I am really easy to please. Just keep me naked in my diaper and I'll munch on my feet all day long. I'm a pretty bendy baby. Also, I want to thank my Uncle Jonas for staying in Chicago for a few days to help me and mommy out - we had the best time!

Funtime with family

Not all pictures of me are ones of me smiling, y'know
Grandpa giving me my first plastic spoon

Peekaboo Time

"I am the smartest man alive!"

Mommy is so pretty

I'm a standin' man

Pardon the upside down portions. Abba is a lazy-tush tonight.

Yup, I've discovered my vocal chords

Whoooooie, it's been a fun week. I have started squealing, screeching, and doing all sorts of fun stuff. Now when I wake up in the morning, I talk to myself for a good ten minutes - it's quite cute if you're lucky enough to catch it.

My first professional pictures

I love talking

I started doing some serious baby-talk today. Luckily, mommy and abba were on hand to catch it with the camcorder.

I store acorns in my cheeks for the winter

The return of Mr. McGigglestein

My girlfriend

I confess. I'm in love with an older woman, and her name is Maayan Ayelet Kellman. It must be getting pretty serious because I've had lunch with her two days in a row now - and the best part is that she was cheap date; she only ate noodles.

Anyway, take a look at these pictures of me hugging my new favorite stuffed animal, Sparky the dog.

It's tub time

I took my first bath with my abba today. One thing I made sure to do right away was to pee all over him the second we got in the tub, so I'm glad I got that out of the way to show him who's boss. Anyway, I really liked it. My abba says that he is posting these pictures at the possible expense of weirdos on the internet using them in innappropriate ways. The things he does to show me off!

Just chillin'

I've trained my abba now, too

Now both my mommy and abba make me laugh whenever I want. And I usually make them look very stupid in the process, too. It's great being a baby!

Yummy hands

A fit of laughter

Mommy's been trying a bunch of things to get me to laugh a lot - looks like she finally found what works : laugh and rant like a circus animal. Also, here's a pic of me smiling away that I forgot to add last wee,
