Christmas Fun

My 1st Christmas went very well. I spent alot of time with family, I was only interested in eating the wrapping paper, and I got alot of new goodies.

This year was easy cause mommy could get me a bunch of necessities. I got new bottles, binkies, my favorite spoons, a neat sipie cup(for later), socks, and a really soft new blankie. But I got toys too!!!! I got my 1st teddy bear, mommy and I made him at Build-a-Bear and we named him Peanut Butter. I got a neat music and shape ball, and my first Tonka truck. It is a really soft plastic so as soon as I stop scooting around and get to really crawling I'll have something to push around. And my Grammy got me a rocking horse that sings, they help me rock for now, but before too long I'll be doing it on my own. My Nana and PawPaw got me this really great sport activity center. I'm learning how to shoot hoops already!!!! And my MeeMaw and PawPaw in Texas sent me some really cute PJ's, I love the lil cowby ones, and MeeMaw made me the most adorable blanket. Aunt Krista got me some really cute jeans and the cutest sleeper, it is knit with light and dark blue strips, and has the sweetest little hoodie.

All in all it was a great first Christmas. Mommy and I spent last Saturday night with Uncle Jack and Aunt Mel. Mommy says I have to get used to being other places. Bubba and I had fun playing together. But he likes to take my binky and make me cry. He doesn't mean to though. And he is a very vocal little boy. Every time he would yell, I would cry. Mommy found it very funny. But wait til I start crawling, maybe then I'll have more fun with Bubba. And Bubba is cruzing around everywhere, and his daddy has even seen him take is 1st steps at only 8 1/2 months!!!!

Here We Are!!!

Sorry it has been so long guys. We have been a pretty busy bunch here. With Santa coming soon, and Thanksgiving out of the way. It just all came so fast.

Thanksgiving went well, but I got pretty upset that I couln't have any of that good, good food. But I have expanded my palet to include veggies. I love sweet potatoes and carrots, I didn't like peas too much, and I tried green beans today, I like them. Bananas are still my favorite fruit though.

I mastered my rolling over skills and now I'm working on crawling. I get up on all fours, but I go backwards. I haven't quite fiqured it all out yet, but momma gives me two more weeks and I'll probally have this crawling thing down. I also like to push my little butt up in the air and stand on my tipie toes. I think this move helps me move forward, but it rarely does. It is so funny to see me do it though.

I learned Thursday that if I put my arms out and look at you very endearinly, I'll get picked up. You can say, "Want to come see me" and I'll through my arms out. I turned 5 months on Monday, Momma says I'm growing up way too fast. And I am. I'm learning so much so quickly. But I'm loving it!!!! and so is mommy and Grammy.

Here are some pics from Thanksgiving. Uncle Jack and cousin Bubba are in some, and so is my Aunt Cree. The family really enjoyed seeing me. And they really loved comparing Bubba and me. He is 8 months now and I am bigger than he is, I'll be handing my clothes down to him instead.

We love you all and we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!!
