Yesterday, Mother’s Day, Win was dedicated. Grandma and Grandpa Dean drove up from Fort Wayne for his dedication. Afterward we drove to Grand Rapids and celebrated Mother’s Day with Aunt Johanna and Uncle Matt.

Talking
May 13, 2006 – 11:10 am
For those of you who haven’t seen Win in a little while, one of his favorite new activities is talking. If you can get him to look straight into your eyes, just about anyone can get him to talk. ‘Talking’ consist of you making high-pitched cooing noises and him returning the favor. He will usually talk back and forth with you indefinately, or until something bright or shiny enters into his peripheral vision, then you’ve lost him. Here’s a shot of Win chatting it up with his uncle Matt. I’ll post some video of him talking sometime soon.
Up Close and Personal

Win is a super happy and smiley guy. He loves to smile when a new person enters his range of vision. This is his expression when he is contently studying something.
Tulip Time
May 6, 2006 – 5:16 pm
Here’s a shot of Winfield (from my phone, we loaned our biggy to a friend to shoot a wedding) from tonight before we rolled him downtown to experience a little bit of Tulip Time. Win really likes Tulip Time: lots of people, bright colors, music, dancing women, junk food, and female babies in strollers. We like Tulip Time too. Weather has been spectacular and the tulips are gorgeous this year. There are lots of fun things to do around town and everyone is in a good mood. We’re looking forward to next Tulip Time when we can take the little chump to Kinderplaatz, which is like heaven on earth if you’re a child under 9. They have a gazillion activities, games, skits, large inflatable jumping-aids, face-painting, exploring real fire trucks, etc, etc. We literally saw kids squealing with glee every few feet when we were down there this afternoon.

This is what Win does when we put him on his tummy, that is when he doesn’t roll over first.
