Back to normal...sort of.

Now that we have power, cable, and Internet back at home, Baby Trey's world is pretty much back to normal. He is sleeping in his own crib, playing with his regular toys, and eating in his regular high chair. He had his first fruit - pears - over the weekend. At first he wasn't sure about it, just as he is with any new food, but by last night he was gobbling up every bite.

But because a lot of Houston is still without power, Trey has had more visitors lately. Aunt Kacie is staying with us right now so that she can soak up our a/c and electricity. Mama C and Pappa came over yesterday to do laundry. And "Uncle" Joe spent the night on Saturday night while Mommy and her old college roommates had a reunion at "Aunt" Jenny's house. Incidentially, that was Mommy's first night away from Trey. They both did pretty well with the whole thing, and Daddy got up to feed Trey for the first morning in a long time. Fortunately for Daddy, Trey decided to sleep in until 9 a.m.!

Trey also had a re-do of his portrait sitting yesterday. He was much better behaved than the last session, when he had an earache (unbeknown to us at the time). However, the pictures did not turn out nearly as well! We aren't really sure why, but Mommy was very disappointed. Oh well - we will take Christmas pictures with a "real" photographer soon enough. In any event, we will post a link to the new pictures when they are uploaded.

It also looks like pretty much all of Trey's friends are back at school today. Trey was looking forward to playing with everyone today. This morning, upon arrival, he initiated a game of peek-a-boo with Ms. Vicki. (We secretly think that Trey is Ms. Vicki's favorite baby, but don't tell any of the other parents!) That is one thing Trey loves to do lately - play peek-a-boo on his own terms. He flirts and giggles with the intended target and it is absolutely adorable. We love it. :)
