Yesterday's Update

Alright, so today will be the day with two posts. Mama had the opportunity to do her weekly grocery shopping sans Mr. Munch, so she took it.

Yesterday Mr. Munch got a lot of clothes from his second cousin (who has outgrown them). Because of this, Mama got her letter B picture!
B is for "Beary" cute Baby in a Big ol' Box

Later Mama and Mr. Munch had a staring contest while Mr. Munch was chillin' in his Bumbo. Mama lost cause her phone rang.

Pro at staring.

Back in Action

Alrighty! The schedule has worked itself out, so hopefully there should be no more interruptions any time soon. To get you caught up, however, there are going to be two posts today. Yesterday's picture is on my computer already. Today's is not.

Yesterday Mama and Mr. Munch spent the day at Grandma and Grandpa's while Daddy was at work. Being well behaved and entertaining was hard work, so Mr. Munch needed to take a nap.
Face-planted into the Pack N' Play, but he's out cold.

Then Daddy joined us for dinner (Mama treated everybody to honey-glazed pork chops with salad and rolls). We were hoping to stay and play computer games with the Munchicles, but Mr. Munch's bedtime came first.

Preview: Next post will have the picture for the letter B!! I hope to be able to update that in the next few hours.

Lazy Day

Today was very uneventful. Mr. Munch slept a lot today and quietly hung out with Mama for the rest of the evening. He joined Mama and Daddy for a dinner date (with a bottle instead of a beer) and now Daddy is trying to put him to bed.
Just chillin' with mah keyz yo.

Doctor's Office

Today was a good day all around. Everybody was in a good mood, the day was beautiful, and the Munch Family got to spend it together all day! Mr. Munch had his 2 month appointment with the doctor today. He is 12 pounds, 9 ounces (+ 4 pounds, 3 ounces) and he measures 24 inches long (+ 4 inches).
It's chilly without a onsie on.

Dr. Ron checked Mr. Munch and answered Mama and Daddy Munch's questions. Prognosis: Mr. Munch is healthy and growing like he should!

Dr. Ron, checking the ol' ticker!

Once Mr. Munch was looked over, it was time for his shots. He was a real champ and had stopped crying by the time he got to the car. Despite grim predictions of a cranky baby, Mr. Munch was a pretty mellow dude for the rest of the day. After the doctor's office, the family stopped by the mall.

Mr. Munch likes rollin' comfy in his stroller!

We ran into many friends, including some that we weren't expecting to see. After finishing the day at home with Mama and Daddy, Mr. Munch was ready for bed.

Playing Catch Up

We're back! After a couple of days off, there are a lot of pictures to catch up on. I've chosen the best ones for today.
I'm going to be starting a photo challenge for myself during this blog. It's an alphabet challenge. A picture will be taken representing each letter of the alphabet, posted every day or two. Starting with
A for Astronaut

Mr. Munch finally decided that he was ok with taking a different brand of pacifier. He also decided that Mama was the best place to take a nap.

Mama shifted a little to take a picture and Mr. Munch didn't appreciate his nap being disturbed.

Yesterday Mr. Munch got dressed up nice and cozy in some new footy pajamas. Mama thought they were adorable until she put them on and realized that they made Mr. Munch look like he had just broken out of a chain gang. Grandma and Grandpa agreed later that day when Mama and Mr. Munch stopped by for a visit.

He's on the lam!

Today Mr. Munch decided that his clothes needed to live up to who he really is! 

Stating the obvious one onsie at a time.

Then Mr. Munch spent some time in his rarely used crib so that it's not a totally strange place when he starts sleeping in there in the next couple of weeks. There wasn't much to look at, so Mama stole one of Daddy's shoelaces and got creative with Mr. Munch's toys.

So much fun stuff to look at now!

We topped off the afternoon with a walk to the store and back, then Mr. Munch fell asleep in his swing. We've had a busy and fun past couple of days!

Officially Fall

As I mentioned yesterday, we spent some time in the evening getting pictures with family on Munch Daddy's side. We got some good pictures and we had fun catching up with people.
5 generations! w00t!

This would have been a better family pic if Mr. Munch hadn't been starting an epic meltdown.

Today was, in my opinion, the official first day of fall. The air conditioner and all of the fans got turned off, the windows got closed, and warm clothing got put on. Mama and Mr. Munch spent some time just hanging out in bed,

Warm pajamas make any day better.

then Mr. Munch got to hang out with Daddy while Mama went to the store. (Tonight's dinner experiment was bacon, onion, and bleu cheese lamb sliders with steak fries. With a little tweaking, this will definitely be a repeat dinner!)

Picture Day!

This evening Munch Daddy and Mr. Munch are going to be in a 5 generation picture with Munch Daddy's great-grandma, grandma, and uncle (standing in for Mr. Munch's grandpa, RIP). Mama decided to have Mr. Munch try on his overalls ahead of time to make sure they fit. Mr. Munch isn't sure how he feels about them yet, but Mama thinks they're adorable!
These will come in handy once Mr. Munch starts moving around!!

Due to this week's schedule, there's a chance that I won't be able to post every single day, but I will do my best. If I do miss a day, don't worry. I will still be taking pictures every day and trying to update as much as possible.

Showing Spirit!

Today we finally got around to trying on Grandma's gifts from their family vacation to the New England area. We start them young in this family and it looks like there's going to be an eager spectator!
He loves his beanie! It's a good thing there's some room left to grow.

The onesie is a 6m, so there's definitely room to grow in this one!

Now we just have to get Munch Daddy some memorabilia and the Munch Family's team spirit will be in full swing!

Not Mr. Munch's Day

Today's post is early because tonight is not about Mr. Munch. I normally try to wait until afternoon/evening to post in case anything interesting happens to Mr. Munch, but tonight I need a break. Tonight is date night for Mama and Daddy Munch while Mr. Munch is at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
This morning Mr. Munch had a much needed bath and he enjoyed it immensely!
It feels weird moving in water.

Artsy shot by Daddy.

He was not expecting water on the head!

Cute little ducky towel!

Retrospection

Today was a fairly dull day. Mama and Mr. Munch went on a short walk around the neighborhood, but it was hot and very sunny, so it didn't last long. Otherwise the day has been spent around the house. Pretty boring, so I figured we'd look at some old pictures as well as new pictures.
When a Daddy Munch and

a Mommy Munch love each other very much...

They get a Mr. Munch!!!

And that is pretty cool.
