Homies

These are my boys. We chill every Tuesday night for a couple hours. Joseph (left) likes to feed me my dinner and Josh (right) loves to splash with me in the tub, with his trunks on, of course. I literally scream when they arrive.
I love Tuesday nights.

Yeah, Thanks Mom

Why me? It seems that all of my relatives like to dress me up, smile and clap and then take my picture. I am cute, but, in the words of my aunt Beener, "For real?" And to make it worse, they take a picture of me while I'm eating. Lovely.
OH, and to make it even worser (is that a word?), I'm all decked out in this Padre gear and they didn't even win.

Famous Ribs

Uncle Jason turned 25 last month. I am so glad I was invited to his birthday dinner. So tasty.
Famous Dave's is one of Dad's favorite restaurants. I was glad I had teeth so I could partake in this amazing birthday meal.
Happy 25th uncle Jace!
Oh, and that's Root beer in my cup.

I Still Bite

Mom loves this picture because you can see all my baby teeth. Count them. I have 9!!! I am cutting 2 more right now. Ouch! The molars are brutal. Can't wait till those are through.

Check It

This is how I roll.
I got my big boy seat a couple months ago. I had out grown my other seat a long time ago but I wasn't old enough to get a bigger seat. So when I turned about 10 months, we made the big purchase!
It reclines!!!!

My First Goodbye

Mom didn't tell me that GG and Pop were coming. I was excited to see there kinda familiar faces. It had been 3 or 4 months since I had seen them and we were overdue for a visit.
Pop reminded me of dad. He had a comfy shoulder and a scruffy face. My favorite! GG was sweet to me. We bounced and giggled together. Well, I did more of the bouncing, but we had fun.
When they were on there way out, GG waved and said bye-bye. When she turned away, I returned the favor. Now I am a waving fool. I stopped saying bye a couple weeks after they visited. That's 'cause I'm too busy saying dada.

Royal Day, Royal Dad

We spent Father's Day at the 'K'. The day couldn't have been more perfect. Beautiful weather, the Royals won and we had sundaes at Sheridan's. I also squeezed in a little cat nap. Thanks for the shoulder, Dad.

That's why he's the best.

Can't Wait to Seymour Papaw & Grandma

Dad, Mom, Max and I piled in the car on Friday and headed out to Seymour, MO. They must have known I was missin' Papaw and Grandma. We got there just in time for dinner and dessert. I couldn't get enough of that chocolate pie! Mom says I'm my father's son...whatever that means.
On Saturday I crawled all around checking out their new home. I had so much room to play. So fun!
We had to leave that same day. I wish we could have stayed longer, but we had a good time anyway.
Love you Papaw and Grandma!

Swing Kings

A few weeks ago, after church, mom and dad took me to the park. We went on the swings first and dad and I stayed on them for so long that one of the kids finally kicked him off.

It was a good day.

Btw, if you click on the image of me and dad, you can see his goofy expresion even better!

Splish Splash

I made it very clear to mom and dad that I did NOT want to go home. I had the best time playing in the fountains at Legend's.

We went home anyway.

All By Myself

Here I am! Standing tall in my crib. I discovered that if I get on my knees I am able to reach the top of the crib. From there I just pull myself up.
I had mom take a picture to prove that I really can do it. I should have had her take off my socks though.
Sometimes, when mom puts me down for a nap, I get up and play. When she catches me I laugh and she does too!






Like many babies, I love cherrios. For a while, mom and dad fed them to me but now I can feed myself...well, kinda. A lot of them do end up in my lap or on the floor. Max loves me for that. But every once in a while, I'll wiggle one in my mouth. Yum.




Mmmm, breakfast, my favorite.
Mom makes my drink and just hands it to me. As you can see, I am pretty good at this bottle thing. See how I can hold it with one hand?

Can you see me?

My First Blog

Hello family. I am excited to have my own blog. I wanted to keep all of my family up to date on the many things I'm learning. So, here I am, typing away!

Well, I turned 8 months on Saturday. Mom says I am growing up so fast and that I am changing everyday. I think I am cute as the day I was born, maybe cuter.

I have been impressing the babes in the nursery with my crawl. I haven't figured out how to crawl on my knees so I just drag myself by my arms. I am getting faster everyday. Mom is chasing me around all day long. I don't mind because she's so fun. We do all kinds of exciting things. I love when she puts me in my high chair cause I know I am gonna have some cheerios or yummy baby food. Because I am enjoying myself, I wave my hands around. I can't seem to control them when I'm excited.

One of the highlights of my day is when dad comes home. He's the best. Did you know dad does everything mom does? He makes my bottles, changes my diapers and he even puts me down to sleep. I think he dresses me just as cute as mom does. I have the coolest dad.
