First rainbow!

Oh, I wish we had pictures....Rye saw his first rainbow today, a big fat one in the north sky, between storms. And two days ago he followed Admiral Peary squirrel with his eyes as he dashed from tree to rooftop to powerline to tall tree to taller tree.

Today we did some Christmas shopping, and Rye spent the first part of the drive staring out the window, discovering the world speeding by. In the past he's looked at himself in his little mirror, or played with the pacifier leash or his hands...or slept. Well, today he slept, too. But first he watched the cars and gas stations and powerlines go by along Beverly Blvd.

He's getting big, too...last week he weighed 17lbs with clothes on! So he's doubled his birth weight, just about. Healthy boy!
