Monday Night Dinner

Well look who was waiting for me when I got home tonight! It's the infamous Derek. Just 7 days past his 2 month bday. I was working late (conference week at the Ol' Elementary school) and when I got home I had a house full eating around my dining room table. This is what happens when you give a key to the neighbors (alright, all the neighbors) in case of an emergency. Of course, they all consider it an emergency when I'm not home by 6 pm on a Monday night. I'm not complaing mind you. It is nice to have a house full of people and food and not have to play hostess. And did I mention that they all take turns doing dishes. Now, if I could only get them to fold laundry and organize my closets, I would have it made.


Anyway, Derek finally convinced his parents that they have no life & he needed to get out and socialize. Yeah.



He is quiet the "Thinker", don't ya think?



Ah, the family portrait. Aren't they sweet? Ric, Tiffany and their two kids, Derek & his brand new older brother, Chris.



Did I tell you that I took a class on Baby Sign Language? Ric and Tiffany couldn't make it so I picked up a book for them. As you can see, Derek is picking right up on signing. I believe this is the sign for "Quit taking pictures of me already!" OK Derek, I can take a hint.
