The latest in our periodic look at how Nyan Thomas has changed. He’s gotten just a wee bit bigger since summer of 2011, eh?

The latest in our ongoing series of sort-of-time-lapse photos of Mommy and Nyan Thomas. Starting in August 2011 – about a month old – until just the other day, at 18+ months.

Please pardon the lad’s mad-scientist hairdo in the most recent photo. Someone needs another haircut!
We try to be good parents, and part of that is making sure we read to Nyan whenever possible. We’re pleased to report that he seems to enjoy books; he can’t read, of course, but he likes turning pages, and recently has shown more interest in the actual pictures. And he will sometimes even sit still for a few minute while we read to him! Positive signs, we’d say.
Without further ado, here are a few pictures of the young man, just before bedtime this evening, getting a little reading time in with Mommy.

To celebrate Nyan Thomas’s return to New York, I took the day off on Monday and we all headed down to DUMBO, the cool cobblestoned neighborhood down along the river, underneath the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges. Last fall they opened up a merry-go-round – a restored carousel first built in the 1930s, and one of the few (if not the only) carousels listed on the National Register of Historical Things. Some photos, and a video, of our afternoon (click on photos to enlarge):
Continuing our look back at some recently unearthed videos from months past, today we offer a five-spot of Nyan Thomas. Some good stuff here.
First up: Daddy being silly with the young man. Is there any better sound than a laughing baby? Not really. From Jan. 23, 2012:
I love this one: Mommy reading Dr. Seuss to Nyan Thomas. Feb. 27, 2012:
A brief, shot when we meant to take a still photo but the camera was set on Video. Look at how little he is! Sept. 20, 2011:
Not much going on in this one, but still worth a look. Daddy and Nyan sleeping as Mommy slips into the bedroom for a quick video. Feb. 26, 2012:
And finally, this is sort of a dress rehearsal for this classic video. In this take, we see Daddy making music with little Nyan, and Nyan responding by… spitting up. Oct. 2, 2011:
