hey blue eyes
As mentioned in a previous post, Toren’s usually asleep or in various stages of sleep (or closing his eyes when he poops). So when he opened his eyes nice and wide the other day while I was reading him the news, I figured I had to take a picture: As strange as it may seem,…

Scientology-ville (a.k.a. Clearwater, FL) Tour
Yesterday morning I was reading the local paper when I came upon this story about Scientology (part 1 of 3). Apparently 4 fairly prominent members of the religion have defected over the last few years and the St. Petersburg Times finally got them to agree to be interviewed. The Times is rolling out the interviews…

Wowser!
During our walking tour of Scientology-ville (a.k.a. Clearwater, FL; more on this to come), we stopped at a Baskin Robbins for some ice cream (it was pretty hot and muggy).

Toren at the beach
Toren had his first visit from family on the 13th when his uncle, Brent Robbins, overnighted in Tampa. We went out to Clearwater for dinner and Brent was kind enough to take a photo of our little family – the first with all three of us. It’s not the greatest photo (not Brent’s fault), but…

the amazing human body
I took pictures of Debi’s belly just about every week of the pregnancy to see how amazing it is. Here are the photos in a slideshow:

the new babysitter
Debi tried this out one day while we were eating breakfast and Toren seemed fine with it: We use it occasionally while we eat, which is usually just after he has eaten. Every time we do it I look at him and think, “He is so small!”:

Toren’s many faces – video this time!
Here’s another video of Toren: Early on his pretty content then he starts fussing a little. His fussing does get a bit worse than this at times, but, really, this is about as bad as it gets at the moment. Yeah, we’re pretty lucky!
