Fancy pictures

When the Pipsqueak turned 6 months old, we had some professional photos taken. Some of those shots turned out really good, so I thought I'd share some here:

A few more photos ...

Well, here are a few more photos I had been meaning to get posted. These are from various dates - Pipsqueak's been keeping us busy!
This one is from the St. Patty's day parade on Magazine Street. He looks cranky, but that's only because he was blocked all day from stealing my beer.


This one is from the little guy's first Easter -

And, after having a terrific time, the Pipsqueak sleeps. Around this time in March, he was sleeping peacefully through the night.

Lombardi Gras

So, Pip was around for an unprecedented spring in NOLA this year, with the Saints winning Super Bowl XLIV, and mardi gras following only a week later. In fact, the whole region declared the season "Lombardi Gras," and the parading and celebration continued unabated for quite some time.

Of course the Pipsqueak enjoyed every minute of it, and we're glad he was around to inspire the Saints to succeed. By this time next year, we imagine the parade throws will be WAY more important to him at mardi gras, but we're ready. These parading professionals are prepared to show the little man the ropes of living in this City!

More photos of St. Patrick's Day parade and general springtime fun to follow!

Carnival Season!

A few photos from mardi gras and the spring (so far):



Including, a visit from his slightly older cousin, who reminds the Pipsqueak who was here first:

The WhoDat Family

The Pipsqueak came out for a few tailgating opportunities before Saints playoff games this postseason, and also enj0yed the Super Bowl with us ... it looks to me as though he had a good time (even having fun with a NOLA parasol)!

Not-so-great Firsts

Sorry for the lack of updating recently: the Pipsqueak is suffering what we believe is his first cold. Nothing photo-worthy, but things have been slow around here. More to come when he's feeling better.
