True story, folks... I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.
Today on our morning walk (a.k.a. mommy's coffee run), I was taking pictures of Sheridan when a passerby stopped to check him out. Sheridan and I both looked up at the man, who happened to be wearing a University of North Carolina t-shirt. Sheridan looked right back at me, blew a raspberry, and then looked back at the man and giggled...
That's my little Spartan! Go Green!
Speaking of raspberries... they are Sheridan's new favorite vocalization. I am often woken up in the middle of the night to the sound of raspberries coming from his room. As you can see, however, he does them everywhere...
The beauty of raising a genetically-enhanced child - not many people can brag that they have an extra chromosome... Follow the journey of our first-born son, Sheridan Michael, as we travel down a path that looks different than what we imagined, but is far more incredible than we could have ever hoped for.

Kung Fu Chin Grip
Poor little guy is teething... pretty intense at times. One of his favorite remedies is what I call his Kung Fu Chin Grip...
I'm not confident my chin sacrifice even helps him - and once a tooth breaks through (soon please!) I think it will end our little back-and-forth battles (he attacks with the Kung Fu Chin Grip, I counter his move with the Tickle Monster - a pretty fun game, really). I just wish I could make it all better - or at least motivate the teeth to come in more quickly!

*finally* getting on with it
I've been waiting quite a while to truly start my blog. Now it's time. He inspires me... what more can I say?
My friend Catherine once told me, "Sheridan is THE most photographed baby ever." I honestly think she's right... there's no denying it when every time the camera comes out he now tries to take creative control.
