...what do you mean this doesn't come with dessert?

It all comes full circle...

Manny took his place as official mascot of "Manny's" in Chicago. Photos were taken, t-shirts featuring pastrami sandwiches are now a part of the bandler wardrobe, mika, jacob and grandpa were present....it was BIG!

..and rocky makes three....

Bathtime baby!

Paging Dr. Manny B

Manny made an appearance in chicago to administer some smooches (read drool) to patients Uncle Jacob and Grandpa...and what do you know...while he was there he found stairs! It was love at first climb...

Where my dogs at?

Mommy steals pictures from Maddy's 1st Birthday from Tanner's blog...

Manny chums it up with Mikey.

Look I'm driving a table. That's right..

Tanner confides in Manny that he secretly uses rogaine to get those luscious locks.

I think we see where this night ended up...thats me...hidden beneath the blanket!

Folks - This is what the 90th Percentile in height looks like...

Reality TV

Tanner and Manny are already hooked on reality TV! Noa Sloan makes her debut via monitor while Tanner and Manny analyze her every move. Did she just turn over? Was that a snore? Did her eye just twitch. Fascinating.

Because sharing is caring....

No pic - but I had to share this story. Allegedly, Manny's speedy friend Tanner had a Puff (aka...puffy cheerio) lodged in the back of his pants. Manny scooched up to him stuck his hand in the back of his pants grabbed the puff and ate it.

Ok - when you have a 9 month old this is hysterically funny. If not, you can just laugh at the fact that Manny excels at eating. Shocker.

Who says you can't eat turkey poolside?

5 days of Manny smiling ear to ear. Check out the pics to your left.

Too young to play doctor....

...but not too young to play "dentist"

my signature stroke

...is the butterfly. i thought about the crawl, maybe a backstroke, but really the butterfly just suits me...

Rollin NJ Style -

Here I am rollin NJ style this weekend hangin with Uncle Jacob and Aunt Mika....

My Mom got "Fermished"

On Sunday while apple picking mom got a little too excited about using her picker. Could she have a future in apple picking? She does like the fruit...a lot.

In the midst of her frenzy she lost the camera containing some pics that really should have made their way to the blog. Captions and pics would have included:

-Me in my orange puma outfit from the Leiboviches...cause they know thats how i roll..

-Me trying to climb out of my crib. Mommy pretended not to freak out.

-Me eating apples...lots of apples in the Baby Bjorn with Dad. Dad can no longer stand up straight. I guess I passed the 20lb. mark.

Anyway, I'll be back soon. Tune in... Manny B!

Excuse me...

Manny and Mika review Rosh Hashana dinner...Uncle Jacob just had to interupt.

Listen...he's just a "swinging" kind of guy...

...what can you say...?

Manny Rules the playground....
