Do you smell...
what Isaac Anthony's been cookin'? Aside from the thinly veiled allusion to the People's Champ, that phrase has a new meaning now that Isaac Anthony is eating solids. He finally stinks after he poops, ending a long run of months where, literally, his shit didn't stink. Alas, the Icarus of Poop has fallen back to the realm of mere (and stinky) mortals.

Here is a picture of Isaac after the deed (note the mischievous, "What Mommy?" look on his face):

His new schedule is a big change--he is getting closer to big boy nap cycles than newborn nap cycles, sleeping during the night and taking two big naps during the day. He is a little worn out by the end of the awake time, but I imagine that is normal. Here is a picture from the end of an awake cycle, proof of Isaac Anthony's sleepiness:

This weekend will be awesome--birthday weekend, four day weekend, and Auntie Monica and Uncle Rob are coming in to town. Yipee! Maybe they can smell what Isaac Anthony's been cookin'

Also, uploaded some pictures for the end of the month. Check them out.

Time Change
Isaac Anthony is now down to two naps a day, abandoning his early morning nap after his first feeding. As such, I have had less time at home to update. Once we get used to this new schedule, or I get a few seconds of free time, updates will come.

Black Friday and Big Forts
So yesterday was the infamous shopping day Black Friday, a term that originated in Philadelphia in 1966. Instead of shopping though, Dad and Isaac Anthony decided to stay home and build the biggest fort ever made at 53 Hancock St. Mom came in during the middle of the fort construction and said she knew it was going to be a big one when she saw Dad, in a moment of inspiration, run down to the basement and get two pieces of our roof rake and click them together. Here is a picture of the fort, dubbed "Mega Fort":

It was super cool. Isaac Anthony, as the video has shown, loves being in a fort and this was no exception. It was also pretty plush inside, big enough for an adult to lay in, so he plenty of room. Here is a tour of Mega Fort with CB and Dad:



It was even big enough to include a retractable roof and Wi Fi access and allow Isaac Anthony to iChat with his Grandparents. He showed them all kinds of new tricks including really good sitting up on his own. He also showed them his new Christmas ornament, a color change snowman seen here:

Inside Mega Fort it made thinks look like a disco.

All in all it was a vastly better day than going shopping.

A bunch of videos and pics were uploaded including a funny one from the grocery store. Take a peek.
