Today was my 2 month birthday. Just like they did when I hit 1 month, Mommy and Daddy propped me up in the big brown chair for a pic. This sign should really say, "I'm 1 month older and all I got was this stupid sign!"

2 Months Old!

Dinner and a Movie (Hold the Dinner)
Mommy's been taking me to Tuesday matinees at Webster Place. The first show each Tues. is kid friendly (read: impossible to hear over the crying babies). Today we met up with my new boy toy, Alex and his mom, Stacey. This flick was a real snoozer!

My First Sleepover
Mommy and Daddy finally gave me up for a night so they could get some good sleep. After a wild day, Zayde calmed me down with a feeding before putting me to bed. I slept like a, well... baby all through the night. Can't say the same for my P's though.
Memory Laps
Went to Bubbie and Zayde's for a Pre-Memorial Day BBQ. Made the rounds (get it? rounds, laps -- hee hee) shaking hands and kissing babies -- check that, everyone else made the rounds shaking hands and kissing me. Here are the highlights...

As always, the paparazzi was out in full force. Uncle Noah forgot how bunny ears work. You're supposed to put them on the person you're taking the picture of, silly!

Now this would have been the perfect opportunity for bunny ears!

Anytime I'm at Bubbie and Zayde's a game of Hot Potato ensues -- or shall I say Hot Patellie? Uncle David got his turn and gave me an up close and personal view of Supercuts' handiwork. Hey Uncle D, when you ask for a buzz cut, maybe you should ask for a barber that's not buzzed!

Zayde was a bit unclear on the concept of interrupting a feeding for burps. I'm the one that's supposed to do the burping! At least he held me far enough away so I didn't have to smell it too much.

Great-Grandpa Irv patiently waited his turn for some Ellie time. And when it came, he took full advantage, pulling me close and sharing all his blackjack tips. I learned all about doubling down on 11 and splitting 8's. What am I supposed to do with 12 against a dealer's 2, though? I guess I'll have to wait until my next lesson. Or shall I say, I'll have to stick it out until me next lesson? Sorry, had to hit you with that one. I'll do anything for a good pun -- it's my ace in the hole. And please, withhold your comments about me not playing with a full deck -- I'm just 8 weeks old, sheesh!

Tongue In, er... Out of Cheek
If the post above was any indication, Memorial Day weekend at Bubbie and Zayde's was quite the oddball adventure. This 2 minute video captures the zaniness that is the Goldman M.O.
It starts with Uncle David making monkey faces at me to get me to smile. He must've seen the video I posted yesterday and taken notes on how Mommy got me to stick my tongue out and smile at her. Sure enough, I respond to Uncle D's animal antics and give him a tongue-lashing then a smile -- even though Great-Grandpa Irv suspects that it might've just been gas.
Knowing that the back and forth with Uncle D will make for good blog fodder, Daddy pans around the room to capture the cast of characters for posterity. Uncle Noah holds a little Fonzie Happy Days pose thinking that Daddy's taking a still picture. Hey, at least he didn't try the bunny ears again!
Then Dad gets the bright idea to record Bubbie taking pictures of Uncle D and me so you'll have to suffer thru about 10 seconds of viewing the scene thru Bubbie's camera display.
The video comes full circle as Uncle D goes back to the toungue trick to try and get another smile but I'm not having it. Undeterred, he makes a few more monkey faces and even gives me a raspberry but the magic is gone. Thankfully, Daddy shuts it off before Uncle D really goes bananas.

Memories... Like the Corner of My Mouth
What better way to remember this pre-Memorial Day soiree than a group shot? I thought I'd really leave my mark on this one by spitting up just as the pic was taken. Oh, you wanted me to say cheese? Sorry, I thought you said milk!
Rockin' the Blublockers
Believe it or not, I do own a pair of shades that fit me. Auntie Em picked them out when she was in town. For some reason though, Daddy insists that I wear his and Mommy's sunglasses. He'll do anything for a good pic for the blog I guess. It's all good though -- I've got it made in the shade.
