Kiss me - I'm Irish

Well... mostly Norwegian, but the cool thing about Norwegians is that if you put green cloths on them, they think they're Irish. As we can see from this photo, Virg is wearing his green Irish clover socks and Irish drool bib. From what I've heard, this is very common attire for a good Irish party. You may be asking why he isn't wearing more clothing than just his socks, a bib and underwear. All I can say to that is that it's truly amazing how fast a son will imitate his father.
Kiss me I'm Irish??
When will you stop trying to justify your attraction to me?

Virgapalooza

On Sunday, Virg got his very own piano. Daddy is a sucker for small musical instruments. This is actually a very cool mini piano made by Schoenhut. According to their web site their piano's are "famous for their excellent quality and unique chime-like tones." Virg gave a great concert. He has a good rapport with the fans. He'll open with a funny monologue, play his hits, tell a few jokes, and ends with a big finally that leave the crowd screaming for more.

This is kind of a big video, and I'm not sure how well this is going to work on the blog, but I thought I'd give it a shot.

Valentines - Behind the scenes

First of all - it's not blood. He's not a zombie baby. And shame on you for thinking such things. He's just an innocent little baby boy (mmmm... brains). By now, all of you should have received the personalized home made valentines from Virg. But did you also know that a select few of these valentines were hand painted by Virg? Red finger paint is the current medium of choice for the artist formerly (and currently) know as The Virg. I was able to witness Virg at work in his home studio (AKA our hallway bathroom), and I can guarantee that Virg gives each piece of art his utmost attention and emotional gusto. If you did not acquire one of these rare (and eventually priceless) works of art, fear not! Now that Virg has mastered the color red, he's planning on including even more colors in his next artistic happening.

It's ART! You wouldn't understand...

Won't you BEE mine

OK - This will have to be the last Valentine's Day themed post. V-Day is over, and Daddy's having a hard time coming up with new ideas that are centered around valentines. When in doubt... go with the bee costume. It's probably safe to say that Daddy is obsessed with bees. Virg will grow up with Orchard Mason bees and Bumble Bees flying all over the back yard. Daddy (with the help of his bee loving nephew) even convinced Grandma to host a bubble bee house in her garden. Whoo Hoo!! And what could symbolise love more then a cute and fuzzy bug that works with flowers all day long.

I'm the King Bee - Gimme some sugar, baby.

The Virg of Valentines day

Virg wants everyone to have happy Valentines day. So here are a few classic pickup lines that the Daddy has passed on to Virg. These are Virg certified and should not be underestimated. They will make that beutiful person across the room fall madly in love with you, or reignite the passion of an existing relationship.
  • This must be heaven, because I'm looking at an angel.
  • Besides being drop dead gorgeous, what do you do for a living?
  • I lost my phone number. Could I borrow yours?
  • Here I am! What were your other two wishes?
  • Was that an earthquake, or did you just rock my world?
And the ones Daddy used to win Mommy's heart.
  • You make me hotter than sulfur hydroxide mixed with ethyl acetate.
  • My love for you is a monotonically increasing unbounded function.
  • You must be gravity, baby, because you’re the only thing keeping me here.
  • Does this rag smell like chloroform to you?
Careful you don't break my heart.

Ah - to be in Paris and in Love

To make this a truly romantic blog entry, Virg traveled all the way to Paris to soak up the Love and rub elbows with the crustiest of the upper crust French populous. Maybe you didn't know, but Virg is real big in France. I mean just look at this photo. He's only 7 months old and already half as tall as the Eiffel Tower. Of course, with the economy being the way it is, and the need to use imaginary numbers to balance our checkbook, we couldn't afford a plane ticket to Paris. Instead, we just used a poster of the Eiffel Tower. But don't worry, that's a real fake rose he's smelling. To see another super authentic photo of Virg's exciting trip to Paris, be sure to follow this link and visit his new MS page.

A rose by any other name, would still smell just as...
wait this has no smell.

February - The month of LOVE!

Virg has decided to treat all his loyal Blog followers with a special Love theme for the rest of February. Yes I know - it IS better then winning the lottery. Sure, if you won the Mega Millions you could use that $50 Million to pay off all your debt, buy a few houses, dump a few million into some very worthy charities (like the National MS Society), and retire early. But a picture of the Virg is priceless.
A taste of things to come... Ladies
