Such A Little Old Man

I picked up the little guy from daycare one afternoon this week. He had a big smile when he saw me come in the door of the nursery. 

He's a whole lot of fun right now, smiling and laughing.

The many faces of little man O.

Look at those wrinkles. And that bald head. And those ears that stick out.

Such a little old man.

The Man can't get enough of this little guy.

He just started eating baby food this past week. We got to feed him green beans.

He loves them. I can't wait for him to eat real green beans. I think he'll like them even more.

I know a baby, such a baby, -
Round blue eyes and cheeks of pink,
Such an elbow furrowed with dimples,
Such a wrist where creases sink.
'Cuddle and love me, cuddle and love me,'
Crows the mouth of coral pink:
Oh, the bald head, and, oh, the sweet lips,
And, oh, the sleepy eyes that wink!

-Christina Rossetti
