My son was famous for his "fish face" as well at about the same age -- our reaction was such that after a while he learned to make it on cue.

Thomas definitely wouldn't have been able to tackle pizza crust at Spencer's age, but now that he's got a pretty good set of baby teeth (central & lateral incisors and first molars), he does pretty well with most things especially pizza crust and bagels.

Spencer also really likes cherry tomatoes, though we don't have any pictures of him eating those.

Some interesting stats on Obama's appointees for ambassadorships. A number of them are not from the foreign service, and have been big democratic contributors over the years. That being said, they do seem pretty-well qualified as well.

I think the banging says more like, "Give it to me! NOW! You're not feeding me fast enough!" and the grabbing of the spoon says, "No, you fool! Here, let me show."

This is adorable! I wish Hazel was this excited about eating from a spoon.

Give her time. We are crazy, and started giving him stuff around 3 months, so he has had plenty of time to warm up to it. Then again, every kid is different, which is part of what makes it fun.

Paul: that does sound similar. The main difference seems to be that Parrotview is getting the store to install their software (just a few lines of javascript), so that the user doesn't have to go to any other site. The user doesn't even have to know what Parrotview is. The challenge of course is to convince companies to add those few lines of javascript.

"Sadly, though, the work brings us no closer to a cure for the champagne blues. As Graber and Kelleher wrote more than 20 years ago, "Mountaineers must choose to leave either their acetazolamide, or their suds, at home.""

Dr Dekker explained how a 3D view showed how chromatin's complicated folding pattern was important in the regulation of genes. "We now see that things that are far apart along the linear sequence of the genome are actually next to each other in the folded structure," he said. "They're close together in the structure, and they're talking to each other."
