From now on I am going to post all my videos onto Vimeo.com - use the above link and book mark it! They make it so easy to upload from my iPhone that I had to use it.

I played around this morning and chucked some up there - just some goofy Harry videos!

I have been a bad mommy.  Since I bought my iPhone I have not taken many photos with my Nikon! I did take some recently, that I will get up this weekend.

In the meantime I forgot we had these photos that I took last march using my friend John's camera and fun lenses.

Enjoy seeing a little, fat baby face that I miss.

Just wanted to wish everyone a happy new year. It is going to be a busy one, with another little Brown on the way in May. As you can see from this picture, Harry and Franklin have mixed feelings about the matter.

We spent this Xmas with colds, but, we persevered. My fabulous in laws took care of Harry and fed us while we rested in between sneezing and blowing our noses.

Harry really is not interested in presents yet, but we thank you for them anyhow! I think I am going to put them away, and save them for when the new baby comes, and use them to distract Harry.

Wanted to update everyone on Harry's expanding vocabulary. He adds to it by the week. It is hilarious.


EAT! - nuff said
Kuh! Kuh! - truck, bus or train or any other large vehicle
Blankie - blanket (his best buddy for when he sleeps)
Binky/Paci - pacifier
Buh - book
BuhBye! - good bye. His fav thing to say.
Doggie - this is used for any animal that even slightly resembles a dog
Baby - yes he says this thank goodness
Bawl - ball (loves them)
Ooh! - says this when he sees christmas lights
DaDa - loves to yell this
Mama - only when he is whiny and tired or hungry
Nahnah - banana
CHEESE! (always yelled)- cheese
Mook - milk
Guh - i think this is grapes
Papa - grandpop, and he usually whispers it
Spooh- spoon
Gallgone- All gone
No, No, No - he does this while wagging his finger at you

Finally figured out how to blog from my phone!

I feel guilty that I haven't posted and Harry updates for all of my avid readers. Things in the Brown household have been so busy as of late. Tonight I just got around to processing and posting the photos from our 2 trips to the beach this summer and of Harry's first birthday!

Harry had a great time - we went to Ocean City for a weekend to be with the Paulinas and Har loved playing with his cousins and eating sand. Made for interesting diaper changes.



We also spent a week in Wildwood with the Paulina and Brown Grandparents. He didn't like the sand there as much as he did in OC. Must have been the approaching storms that affected the taste.

At any rate - he had a great time being spoiled by both of his grandmoms, loved exploring the condo and took in all the sights on our many walks. He got to see both sets of cousins that week as we celebrated Maria's 40th bday together.


He also really liked the ceiling fan in the master bedroom. Everyone morning he would wake up and point at it. The other major thing he learned about was BIRDS. He loved to point at the seagulls, and ever since then, pointing is his THING. He is always pointing at the ceiling or sky no matter what.  If he points out the window, he utters "buh" for birds. Very cute.

More general Harry updates:

• Now he has 4 teeth and one more coming in
• Still not "officially" walking, although he has taken a few steps (last thursday to be exact) but hasn't taken one since
• He very clearly says "eat" now. Figures.
• At his first year check up he was 75th percentile for weight and height
• He can locate his ears, nose, teeth and belly on command
• He went to his first Phillies game on Labor day! (VERY hot day, we had to hide in the shade)

Overall he is a little crazy monster that loves to crawl around the house and get into trouble. He enjoys going behind furniture, going under my desk and pulling on wires, opening and climbing into the panty and of course petting and pointing at the dog.

I now have an iPhone so expect some mobile updates! Woot.

I know, I know. Mommy has been slacking in getting a blog post, videos and photos up to the internets. Here is a compilation of Harry stuff from the past few months!

We are crawling very well now, and have 4 teeth, and can climb steps too!

My inlaws came out for a visit in late May - I took some photos before they left. This one is my favorite!

It has been busy around the Brown household over the past month. Mommy has been working late and too much, Daddy traveled for work, and in the meantime Harry has been doing some growing up!

He finally figured out how to crawl - he took his first tentative tries on Sunday June 20. Him and Daddy were playing, and I was outside when Eric yelled to me to come in to see! He does a traditional crawl and another that Grandpop Mart calls PegLeg - one leg bent at the knee and the other stuck straight out. He loves to crawl at the dog and pet/annoy him.

On the day he turned 10 months old, he finally cut a tooth! We knew it was coming, because for days he was cranky. Then Grammy Dianne called me at work to tell me that she saw it while giving him lunch.

Harry has spent a lot of quality time with Grammy and Pop Paulina. Last Thursday, we were hit with a quick but severe storm that blew out the power for three days! We stayed with the grandparents because it was in the high 90s and they had AC. We all had a mini-vacation at the Paulina B and B. Harry loved crawling up and down their long hallway. He also pee'd on Grammy's rug after a failed attempt at a diaper change.

We posted up some pics to Flickr for your enjoyment. There will be video to come. We are off to Ohio this weekend and I will check back in soon. We are off to Virginia for vacation in a week and a half and I will post pics when we get back!

Enjoy the holiday!
