ex machina

the eric update - day 229: odin versus the inchworm. the rematch.

after 124 days the lamaze musical inchworm finds that its dirty tricks are now ineffective when matched against mighty odin.

with each passing day, we notice that odin further develops the skills required to investigate his surroundings. here, the orange patch and the red patch have captured his attention and he's beginning the process pulling the inchworm nearer so that he can have a closer look. at one point it looked as if he were attempting to crawl closer! or maybe he was just falling over :-)

regardless, while we've seen him doing pushups and sitting upright unassisted, we're still quite amazed to see him putting everything together so he can seek out and inquire.

he's enamored with oranges and reds and particularly oranges and reds that make crinkly sounds ( which these particular patches of orange and red in fact do make ); we suspect we can thank misscaro for him drawing the conclusion that fuzzy orange things also make crinkly sounds.

“"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."”

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
