Liar, liar, pants on fire!

I lied!

Okay, I didn't mean to... but check this out...


I can't believe I am showing you this, but yes, that's my belly.  And now do you see what I lied about? Stretch marks!

Now, I didn't mean to lie.  I don't know where this guy came from!  It wasn't there before Drew arrived, or at least if it was I couldn't see it (which is very possible as I couldn't see the underside of my belly).  I was sure I hadn't seen any in the mirror, but alas... a stretch mark. (Oh, and a horrible scar from my pierced belly button too! But I knew that was there.)

I joked with Jason that when Drew starts asking where babies come from and how they get in their mommy's bellies I can just show him my "zipper".  (And no, I wouldn't actually lie to my child like that about the "birds and the bees").

BUT, here is proof that I am not a total liar... some videos of two things I told you I learned about  Drew...

First, that he crawls to my breast when placed on my chest.  Whether I am burping him or just want to snuggle this is often what happens...



This is actually a natural instinct for babies, but it's pretty cool to see it in action.

And his "paci grumble" as I call it.



I am afraid we might have a little tantrum thrower on our hands!

If you want to see some other videos of Drew, I am giving you a link in a minute, but you must first promise not to judge!  I hate hearing (and seeing!) myself on video (especially when baby babbling), and I know some of the videos may be kind of dull to you, but I want to capture all the moments, the faces, the sounds that I don't want to forget, plus some!  So, for those people who want to see some perhaps boring and probably repetitive videos of Drew, here ya' go!
