33 Weeks

happy first Christmas from Mohs!  this week, Mohs made an epic journey via plane, train and automobile, traveling from one adoring relative to the next, spreading his unblinking hypnotic are-they-blue-or-are-they-brown stare and death grip (and sometimes pouty face) across 2500 miles.

he, of course, got a haul from Santa, his grannies and his aunties.

Mohs' haul is now mostly in the control of Panzer.  Mohs is pretty tolerant of sharing though, and just keeps his eye on the prize.  as soon as P drops it, Mohs pounces.  (a trick perhaps learned from P himself.)

this week, Mohs met the big man himself -- Santa.

 he fearlessly collected his bell, gnawed on a stale cookie, and went about his business.

he knows he was a good, sweet baby this year.  he loves santa.

Mohs is on the move, and shameless about it.  he'll crawl right off the sofa if you turn your back.  and spends a LOT of time, undeterred, trying to pull himself up and out of things -- carseat, high chair, shopping cart, etc.  gotta keep an eye on that guy.

this week, he enjoyed flipping through the paper (before eating it).

and donned his flannel and tool belt to get a little work done.

gonna give P a run for his money in the cutest-baby-ever contest...

i've asked Mohs before if he's going to be famous for being able to write in multiple languages with both hands and both feet.  as he gets older, i continue to believe this is a valid question.  he's so strong and coordinated!  when i try to change his diaper, he'll pinch onto my arm with both feet and i can barely break free.  this is what happens when you birth a child whose older brother is named Panzer ... he turns into a 7 month old lumberjack :)

he's a joy even with his toughness ... and there are foolproof ways to make him smile.  put daddy in his face.  squeak his monkey toy.  sing yo-gabba-gabba's jumpy jump jump jump jump jump.  or have panzer make contact...
