Last few visits with Sabba

We didn't know it at the time, but these were the last two visits Gavi had with Sabba before he passed away. The picture where Gavi's smiling, bright with wonder, is him looking at Sabba. And here's a video of their famous "gorilla" game - They shared a special bond and we really miss him. Here are a few more pictures.

Here are some more pictures.

Crashing in Essex Fells

We had a fun time staying with Sonia for a few days, preceded by some visits to the Bronx by Tamar and Paulo. Here are some pics. We also had our second or third really good dining out experience with the everything borrowed baby - California Pizza Kitchen - and captured his newly forming curls.

Here's a video of him just on the verge of crawling to Tamar -

Visiting Doda Eva and Uncle Marty

We had a great trip to Omaha to visit with Uncle Marty and Doda Eva and, of course, Baron. The EBB swam in a pool for the first time, had a wonderful massage, discovered a love for tofu, and spent lots of time playing in the living room. It was a great relaxing trip and we wish were back there right now. Here are more pics and videos.

Side Parts and Mohawks

The EBB's hair is coming in! Here are more pics.

The cutest boy

The cutest boy, I ever saw, was sipping (water) thru a straw:
Here are some more pics.

Getting Around the Hard Way

The Everything Borrowed Baby isn't crawling, but he is managing to get around - somehow - scooting, lunging, pushing, pulling - and spinning:

In boxes and shopping charts

As the weather got warmer we seemed to find lots of boxes and shopping carts in which to put the EBB. And I love the muscle shirt!

Continues to be a fan of the fan

The Everything Borrowed Baby has always loved ceiling fans - now he loves being fanned, too. Thank you, Aunt Akis!

Hiking with David Harris

So, we went to Bear Mountain with David Harris and saw...a BEAR! It was crazy. We were hiking along and then this big group of Korean tourists starting yelling at us and we looked 20 feet in front of us and there was a BEAR. It was insane. But David shooed it a way and we were fine. Here are some pics of EBB sitting in his first ever forward facing carseat (Ella's), eating bagels before the hike and finally, enjoying the hike. There are some bear pics, but she/he's in the distance at that point.
