Lennon woke up this morning with scratches all over his face. Now he gets to wear little mitts to keep his face safe. Tod prefers to call them his boxing gloves.



Daddy and son -- Tod has a hard time leaving the house now because he always wants one more hug...

Last night, Lennon experienced his first sponge bath at home. He resisted in the beginning until he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror. Seeing how good he made it look, Lennon calmly allowed us to proceed. He LOVED getting his hair washed!

Enjoying his scalp massage by Grandma Karen...he went to bed all fresh and clean!

Here are the lyrics to a favorite John Lennon tune he wrote for his song
"Angel Baby"
[appearing on his album: Menlove Avenue (1986)].

The words make me think of two great parents I know with their new one.


"It's just like heaven
being here with you.
You're like an angel,
too good to be true.
But after all, I love you, I do.
Angel baby, my angel baby.

Uh, uh, I love you,
uh, uh, I do,
no one can love you like I do.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh.

When you are near me
my heart skips a beat.
I can hardly stand on
my own two feet.
Because I love you, I love you, I do.
Angel baby, my angel baby.

Uh, uh, I love you,
uh, uh, I do,
no one can love you like I do.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh.

(yeh!)

Please, never leave me
blue and alone.
If you ever go,
I'm sure you'll come back home.
Because I love you, I love you, I do.
Angel baby, my angel baby.

Uh, uh, I love you,
uh, uh, I do,
no one can love you like I do.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh.
Uh"

Holden's favorite part of his baths are getting his hair washed. It mellows him out. How wonderful to have your mom there. I loved having my mom there the very best of anyone at first.
