Grandma/Sue came to visit. Myron has been grasping things lately, so he grabbed her by the shirt. Also, he met Ting and Miles and Madeleine. He came along for a Grandma/Sue tour of New Urban Arts and napped the entire time. He danced to a music video. And he has been sitting in a high […]
A couple of weeks ago, Myron got to meet his second cousin once removed, Landen, who is just one month older than Myron is! Mostly they didn’t pay that much attention to each other. But when coerced, they noticed each other and maybe even expressed some interest. Really though, I think they have a way […]
Well, it’s Independence Day, so Myron’s new step toward independence is sitting up, at least with a little help from the couch. He gets very excited about this whenever we prop him up. He is also very excited about storytime. Many thanks to Margaret for the handsome custom made bib and to Cathy and Cassidy […]
Myron got some balloons at his intro to the Boston Engs, and they have been very entertaining. If you’re viewing this from your email, you may need to click through to the post to view the video. It’s worth it. :)
Uncle Roberto and Aunt Grace hosted a very joyful get together to introduce Myron to the Boston-area Engs. I had been wanting to introduce him to Grandma Teresa ever since he was born, but a couple of things got in the way. First of all, there is some Chinese superstition about a new mother and/or […]
For the first time ever, Myron is no longer a mostly-unresponsive blob. He has come upon some important milestones the past few weeks. First off, he has been smiling. I didn’t learn until becoming a parent that babies don’t really smile until about 6 weeks of age. The earlier things that looked like smiles are […]
Everyone talks about how much joy having a baby brings. When I was 16, my dad told me he was ready for grandchildren. He was mostly joking. My dad remarried and had three amazing children after me, and the youngest was 2 at the time, so babies were his jam then. When my dad and […]
We went for a walk around the block the other day. Myron slept like a log, or perhaps more appropriately, one might say he was out like a trout since he had his mouth gaping open the entire time. He really loves being wrapped up in this fabric carrier. I just discovered the magic of […]
Here’s the story of where Myron’s name comes from. Myron Rosander We took the name Myron from the late Myron Rosander, the heart and soul behind the Santa Clara Vanguard Drum and Bugle Corps from the 1980s through the mid 2000s and, through those who remember him, a major influence on the corps today. It’s […]
By request, here’s an update on Myron and Kepler. They’re getting along pretty well, but their relationship is one-way at this point, since I’m pretty sure Myron doesn’t know Kepler exists. It helps that Kepler has lost her hearing, so she is oblivious to any crying noises. Here’s the scene when we first introduced Kepler […]
