We're attempting to raise our baby - a boy - for one year on everything borrowed, some things blue. We're hoping to borrow, rent or buy used everything from baby clothes to furniture to diapers. We're first time parents, living in New York City, and hope this little experiment will help us enter parenthood with a bit more awareness and a lot more humility.

David Harris and the Enlightened One


Our great friend David Harris came for a quick visit and dubbed the Everything Borrowed Baby "the enlightened one." Here are some pics of our Lama in training.

First Solid Foods - Rice Cereal...and Peas!


Here are some adorable pics of the EBB taking his first bites of rice cereal (November 13th) and his first few bites of peas (December 18th).

Not rolling over, but totally sitting up (and reading!)

To each his own, eh?


Peas glorious peas!

Wait for it, the expression after his second scoop of peas is awfully cute.

Cute Bath Pics

That's right - random and cute bath pics.

Reading to the boy - or getting distracted while reading


Before every nap and, of course, before bedtime, we read a few stories (sometimes more than a few) from our giant collection of used children's books. Sometimes he's just so cute we get a little distracted. Here are some pictures from early October and a really cute one with Safi from today.

His first "trick"

Not sure he really gets it, but it sure is cute!

Ahhh - the forehead game!

His first game, invented by Safi, performed by Sabba and the boy.

Feeding himself

Nothing like letting the boy feed himself to create a little extra cleaning up work.
