A long day at the babysitter's sure can wear a guy out! Turn up the volume to hear Dane snore!

First cereal!

Dane wasn't real sure what to think about the goop Mom tried to shovel in his mouth! Overall, he did pretty well, and we kept most of the mess contained to the bib and his face!!
Play time!
Double fun- Dane gets to play in his Jumperoo with the grass between his toes!
Big brother Teddy comes to check things out and gets a grin from Dane.
As a side note, Mike got a little surprise when he went to pick Dane up shortly after these pictures were taken. Dane had been holding things in for a couple of days, but everything got shaken loose in the Jumperoo! The results were so substantial that we just hosed Dane down in the yard before taking him inside to be changed!

5 months old!
It's so hard to believe that Dane will be five months old tomorrow! He just gets more fun every day! Below are some pictures of our rough life- our neighbors have been vacationing in Hawaii (poor them), so we have been watching their beautiful, newly finished pool (poor us)!

Cubby is here!
Carter William Shepherd was born today to proud parents Jeff and Renee. Here are some pictures of Dane getting acquainted with his new little buddy. (Actually, at 8 lbs. 13 oz., he's not really so little!!)
We were only at the hospital for 30 minutes, but Dane goes through clothes quite frequently these days. He's getting known among our friends for his not-so-quiet accidents. Thus, the two different outfits in pictures taken only minutes apart!!
Pround Uncle Kevin and Auntie Jessica (see link to the right) have some pictures on their blog, too!

Little All-Star
Our sweetie was pretty exhausted after we played in an all-night outdoor grass court volleyball tournament last night. He did sleep a little in his playpen next to the courts, but not his usual 8-9 hour stretch. Cousin Ellie will also be happy to see that Dane has taken her advice and is putting his thumb to good use!
" Daddy, this grass tickles my toes!"Video blogging
This is just a rough video that I took yesterday of Dane talking to me. The lighting is awful, but I'm just playing around with this video blogging thing. Here goes...

Last weekend
Grampy and Grammy just left us yesterday. They came to visit us last Thursday evening and enjoyed lots of quality time with Dane! They got their blog updated before us, so you can click on the "Dad and Mom" link to the right if you want to see pictures. We hope they can back again soon!!

On the move!
Dane has really begun to scoot himself around these days. His favorite toy is his activity mat with little fish that he can play with.
We happened to look down tonight and Dane had turned himself a complete 180 degrees. He thought the little beach ball looked like more fun than the fish, apparently!Saturday, July 01, 2006
Another night at the ballpark!
We went to another 51's game last night with Jeff, Renee, and Cubby. If he's on time, we should meet Cubby in another 3 weeks!
Not a very exciting game... Dane decided to take a nap.

Wishing everyone a safe and fun 4th!!
