Thunderstorm dinner

Last night was hilarious. We had some pretty decent thunder and lightening that began shortly before dinner. Everytime there was a thunderclap, Cole came running and hugged my leg while I was cooking. Thankfully, by the time supper was ready, the storm had mostly subsided. However, there was the occasional distant thunder that still prevented Cole from eating a normal meal. This is how he spent most of the time at the table...


Yes, I felt sorry for him a little, but he was so darn cute we all laughed together at him. Even he started chuckling eventually. It was so funny. He would get so close to taking a bite of food - the fork would be loaded and just an inch or so from his lips - then he would quickly set it back down on his plate and assume the position. Same thing whenever he tried to take a drink. Poor little dude.
Here's James in his new Christmas Bumbo seat. These things are pretty cool. Babies really like to be able to sit up, and this thing does a much better job than the traditional bouncy chairs. He likes being able to see what's going on around him much better. No, I didn't mean to get him a girly-purple chair...I thought I was buying a green chair until we got home and opened the box...

I think James is man enough to pull of the purple chair. A friend of mine was having a boy and new his new "nursery" was going to have to be lavender - the room was already painted that color, and they were moving soon after his birth back home to Wyoming so it didn't make much sense to paint it. She sold her husband on the idea by telling him it was painted "like a Wyoming sunset." Just think of that when you see your little sunshine sitting in that chair!
