Arthur 8 weeks 2 days

Okay, this video might just be for the most ardent Arthur fans. Grandmothers and such. He is pretty much just being a baby. A happy baby. It is too long and poorly edited. But what mother could edit out a single squeal or smile? Enjoy, Grandma Tara

Arthur Auditions for American Idol

To tell you the truth, we really don't know which song Arthur was going for here. His interpretation is still pretty abstract. We've been getting a kick out of Arthur's new verbal skills. I'm thrilled August caught it on video so we can share it with all of you!

And he weighs in at a whopping...

9lbs 13oz! 36 days old and he gained over a pound in the last 10 days! August and I are proud of our little eater. These pictures were just taken last night. Note the chubbier face and hands!
