on being responsible

After a round-about discussion, Michael & I decided that we want to be more mindful of Fenner's online footprint. It's well & good for us to play fast and loose with our information and images, but Fenner is a different story. If you don't know, Michael's got some pretty fastidious internet rules about what is and isn't okay to share. We agree that too much of our guy plastered on the interwebs is on the "less okay" side, especially with the shifty way Facebook owns people's info. It's not to say that we won't ever post pictures on Facebook, but their won't be albums full of our dude's chubby ass cheeks. Along that same vein, we'd like other people to also not post any pictures on Facebook of the littlest Till without asking us first.

Fortunately for any of you who check this blog on a regular basis though, we agreed that this is a safer place to post pictures and stories than Facebook. This will be your one-stop shop for all things Baby Till: videos, stories, pictures. In the future, we might decide to make this a private blog (which just means you need to log-in with an email address to view it) but we're not feeling like that's necessary yet. And BONUS: I get more comments from readers! Yay!

And since you've read all that (you do read the words right? you're not just here for the pictures, like a playboy magazine are you!?), here's the requisite F-ing Cute Baby Boy photos!
Michael's boyfriends came to visit.

This kid's got bitchin' parents.

This is a series if pictures from when Fenner saw his reflection on the iPhone.

newborns make you schizophrentic

i tried really hard to write a blog post for everyone, but i've got nothing. here are the emotions i've been having the past 6 weeks:

happy. sad. ecstatic. frustrated. calm. tired. irritated. proud. annoyed. tired. grateful. remorse. embarrassment. amused. tired. jealous. elated.

and probably more that i can't remember. if you can come up with an emotion, i've probably felt it. having a baby is way more intense than anyone can describe. in fact, i (or anyone who's had a baby) could write a thesis on the roller coaster that is having a newborn and people without babies still wouldn't fully understand. it's kinda a shit show. a really cute, sweet, happy shit show.

here's a video and some pictures of THE CUTEST KID ON THE PLANET:
