Catch Up.....






I'm a year old!!!!!! Can you believe it? Mommy sure can't. I have grown up so much since the last time we talked. Here are the highlights of my summer.

I took my first road trip to Texas at the begining of June. Thirteen hours one way! It was exhausting. But I did really well. We took plenty of breaks, and as long as I had my blankey tag, I was just fine. My cousin Destiny did a great job entertaining me in the back seat. And my MeeMaw and PawPaw sure feel in love with me. I wowed them with all I can do, and oh the kisses and rock-a-byes on MeeMaw's chest. I really enjoyed my visit.

Not long after we got back from Texas mommy decided it was time for my first hair cut. I kinda got some comments about how long it was while we were in Texas, hint hint. So mommy took the leap and we got out the clippers! I was very patient and didn't mind it at all. But mommy soon realized I look like a little man, not a baby anymore.

I was working really hard at walking before we went to Texas. I can now say I walk all the time. I finally built up my courage and started walking around about 2 weeks ago. I have 5 teeth on top and the 2 lonely ones on the bottom. I now weigh about 26lbs. I haven't put on much weight, but I sure have gotten taller, 31" now! If I stretch I can touch the door knobs. I'm also a little climber.

Life is good and I am into everything. Mom is one of my new favorite words. I'm getting smarter every day, and there is always something new to learn.

Baby's 1st Halloween
Mommy loves this picture of me. I'm in my Baby's 1st Halloween onesie and my new big boy blue jeans. She thinks I look so handsome, but what she loves most is my wide little shoulders. She thinks I have my chest bowed out like, 'What'!

Gimmie That Binky!
Bubba found it amusing that my binky was on a string, and it certianly didn't stop him from trying to get it from me. He practically took my clothes off with it!

Bubba and Me
This is my cousin Jonathan, his daddy likes to call him Bubba. Bubba is 3 months older than me, and he gets around like its nothin'. (I'm still learning. I like to sit and pull myself up the most though, I'm not to interested in rolling over yet.) But by Christmas, Bubba and I will be a handfull together. And oh how the family is going to enjoy it.
