Terribly Poetic

Artistic?

Since my daughter, Libby, has decided that she can crawl and explore the whole main floor of our house, AND, she can stand up with not much more help than a pant leg, she has discovered our coffee table. She loves to peer through the many openings in the table. These openings are usually full of stuff, but she usually finds a way to clear them out and look through. We had lots of fun playing peekaboo through them today, but when I took out the camera to get this artsy shot, instead of laughing, she thought it would be way better to just strike a pose, a serious pose that is. Maybe she is trying to appear smart? Hmmm, not sure….maybe she is wondering where I put the computer she oh so loves that use to be in that opening? Or is she relaxing after geeking out with me from the last post? By the way, she already loves the new computer, especially when I turn on the isight for her to have her picture taken, or to record her. Keep up those good poses Libby.

Sonnet 18

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimmed.
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest,
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Happy Valentine’s Day to my beautiful wife.

Libby is starting to move alot. We are starting to “baby proof” the house as she seems to find everything to pull out of the coffee table, the computer cords, etc. Anyways, I just thought I would post this short video as today is when she decided to move ALOT.

Libby’s first Thanksgiving
Originally uploaded by ddgrunau.

We spent today at my parents farm and had alot of fun taking some photo’s with Libby. While it was pretty windy and cold, Libby still enjoyed playing in the leaves. That is until she tried to eat them. All in all, we have alot to be thankful for. Hope you all had a good thanksgiving too.

This photo was taken a mere 15 minutes after Libby was born. Just look at those two cuties. I am so proud of my wife and Libby isn’t the only cute one. After roughly 30 hours of labour and 1 1/2hr of pushing Libby out just look at her, she looks great even after all that. I truly am the luckiest man on earth.
