Just a cutie...

Hanging out at Yoga with mommy...Making happy faces on the couch...
Excited about the new season of "Lost"...

"Mom, don't forget the fabric softener!"
Another day in the life of little Finn!

Just hangin' out...

No new news in Bakertown...just hanging out! Finn's growing more and more every day...
Apparently, he wants the camera to take some pictures, too! He decided to have a little time hanging out with his little friend Lamb-y.
"This is my buddy Lamb-y. He's real kewl. We like to lie on our backs and make little noises. Well, I make most of the noises, he pretty much stays silent. It's a pretty good little situation for both of us. He likes my cool Dr. Seuss pants, he wanted to borrow them but I told him he was already wearing a nice pair of wool pants! Ha! Get it? Comedy gold..."

Take a nice look at this picture...who looks sleepier?
"Dad, you've had like 35 years to sleep. Those days are over!"
The Bakertown presidential primaries are coming soon...it's a heated race between sleeping, eating, smiling and crying. It's a tight race, still too close to call!

MLK with FTB

Monday was Uncle Geoff's last day in town...it's been a wonderful visit! Finn spent some time in thoughtful reflection about what it meant to him. This picture shows his thoughtful reflection...and below are some of his thoughts!"These guys sure are tall! I bet someday I'll be tall too!"
"This guy sort of looks like my daddy...but he's not my daddy! Oh well, I'll let him kiss me anyway! I like to wear big-boy pants."
"What's that thing on the floor? It looks pretty funny!"
"Why are people always taking pictures of me with that flashy thing? It's quite mesmerizing, I assure you."
"Mommy, please comb my hair. It's looking messy, and I really need to look my best for my adoring public. Yes, that's it. Now, don't mess it up. Could you bring me the hair gel? Thanks, you're a peach."
Well, those are a few of the thoughts of Finn!

Silly Sleepy Time

After a not-so-sleepy day on Saturday, Finn made up for it today by taking some great naps! So we took some silly pictures with a very sleepy little man...Crazy Uncle Geoff!
Sleep is contagious...
Little man is clearly not disturbed by the paparazzi's flashbulbs!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......

Uncle Geoff's in town!

Finn's been maxin' and relaxin' with his Uncle Geoff!

Just thought this was a funny picture...
Two little Bakers jumping on the bed...one fell off and bumped his head. Momma called the doctor and the doctor said "no more little Bakers jumping on the bed!"
Another Baker in Bakertown is always a good thing!

Put up your dukes!

This little picture looks like Finn is taking after his boxing daddy! He's got a strong jab, watch out for it!
"I'd float like a butterfly and sting like a bee - if I knew what butterflies and bees were."Now, he's flexing his muscles, practicing his muscleman poses!
"My body may look like a little eggplant, but I'm deceptively strong!"

Fighting out of Bakertown...It's...Finn "El Diablo en la Noche" Baker!!!

"Oh, daddy and mommy, you're being silly again! I'm just a wee boy!"
Finn went to the doctor today for a check up, he's doing great. He weighed in at a fit fighting 11lbs and 6oz, which means he's something like a super-junior-light-fly-weight! He's also now 23 inches tall, and has been outgrowing outfits left and right!

Happy (and sleepy) days in Bakertown...

Finn's doing great...but Saturday was a fussy/cranky day...which causes parental sleepiness in the Baker house! Andy watched Finn while Mom got some much needed time-out and lunch with a friend. Dad was sleeping on the job - here's what Erin walked into when she got home! What a slacker!But Finn turned that frown upside down on Sunday, with lots of great naps and smiles a plenty...


Uncle Geoff is coming next weekend, and Finn is getting excited!

Welcome Home, Daddy!

Andy was in NYC all day on Friday for work, and didn't get home until very late...but as soon as he got home, he was greeted by a very smiley Finn! (Followed by a small spit up on his right side)


He also hung out on his boppy pillow for a bit in his favorite polka-jacket!

"What are those colorful things on my feet? They sure are fun!""I'm Captain Chubby Cheeks! All soldiers report to the mess hall!"

Bath Boy

Tonight it was bathtime again for little man! This was his happiest bath yet, we think he's starting to get used to it. (The 70 degree weather didn't hurt, either)Smiles in the tub!
This picture was taken just moments after Finn realized that these pictures would someday come back to haunt him in his teenage years...Good clean fun is always in abundance in Bakertown!

So many smiles...

Finn has had lots of fun with Grandma in town! He got bundled up for a walk and shop downtown in Takoma Park...bundled up as snug as a bug!He's taken lots of naps...

He's gotten burped quite a bit...
Had lots of good gazing and smiling...

Hung out in his little gyminee...with songs and smiles a plenty.
It's a smile that'll melt your heart! (well, not literally, but pretty darn close)
Just another weekend in Bakertown!!

Jailhouse Rock

Wearing his prisoner's onesie, Finn took a little tour of his future bed/crib/cell!And in case you're wondering, those are mittens on his hands! The other inmates were teasing him about his little blue bow on his hat, so he punched them all out. The warden (AKA Erin) told him he had to wear little white mittens to soften the punishing blows that he was raining on his victims.
We went on a long walk yesterday, and Finn was deep under blankets and warm layers.
