More Christmas Pictures!

Ok, so I just had to put up a few more from our family Christmas- just me, Mom, and Dad. We opened my present from GranDeb and Grandpa Sam- they are traveling in New Zealand for 3 weeks and I miss them so much! But, I got to talk to them on Christmas Day when they called us in Keystone! Thanks for the present- I love it!!!

My First Christmas!

Oh boy, Christmas was so much fun! I don't have much to say, just a bunch of pictures to show you... I love tissue paper, boxes, family, my dog, and every time I see Christmas lights I say "ooohhhh". What a fun time of year! Enjoy the fun and funny photos... these are from the Chapin party (also celebrating my Great-Grandmother's 95th birthday!), and from our Christmas Day in Keystone...

10 Months!

Hey guys, it's me again... Mom wanted me to put up my 10 month pictures- I really don't like sitting still much anymore, but we still have a lot of laughs each month taking my picture in my big chair!

Oh, and I also want to say hi to my new buddy George Leonard- welcome to the world!!! Can't wait to meet you and play someday!

One more thing... GO DEACS! We'll be watching the Eagle Bank Bowl Game tomorrow at 9am mountain time :) I'm going to Uncle Kev's for pancakes! Yay!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Oops... I forgot to blog!

Hey guys! I just realized it's been about a month since I last blogged! I have a few good reasons why, though, that I thought I'd share with you...

• I am learning to crawl which takes lots of energy so I'm a little bit tired at the end of the day...
• I got to celebrate my first Thanksgiving with lots of family


• We got our Christmas tree and I spend lots of time checking it out


• I starting "swimming" in the bath tub so I like to take lots more baths now


• I took my first ride in my backpack on a snowy day in Keystone


• Mom and Dad went to Wyld Life Snow Camp last weekend so I got to stay with Grandma and Grandpa Lewis who don't really know how to help me blog...

As you can see, it's been a pretty full month! But tonight, it's snowing really hard and most of Mom and Dad's friends decided not to venture out for Bible Study, so I have a little extra time tonight.

Hope you guys are all having fun getting ready for Christmas- mom says that's the holiday coming up and everyone seems to be pretty excited that it's my first one... Not sure what that's all about but I sure do love my "baby's 1st Christmas" ornament and I LOVE looking at Christmas lights- they are so cool! Bye!

9 months old already!

Yep, can you believe it? I turned 9 months old last week! As you can see below, I was pretty excited about it. Mom and Dad said that now we might have to take a monthly video instead of picture because I can move around so much...

Oops! I started eating the "9 month" sign... not as tasty as I had hoped, but still fun to try!

Some of my new tricks are clapping and waving when asked to, getting so close to crawling, eating these cookies that mom says help my new teeth, oh, and I have 2 bottom teeth coming in! Yay! Mom says I'll be able to eat even more yummy foods!

Old MacDonald Had a Farm...

And on that farm he had a chicken... Yep, that' s me in my Halloween costume- I was a chicken! I had so much fun on my first Halloween... check out the pictures!

Here I am with Dad- he and Mom dressed up as farmers :)

Then we went to the Shifty Fish concert (some of Dad's buddies are in a band) and met up with my friend Presley- she was a cute bumble bee!

I had lots of fun listening to the music, dancing, watching the trick-or-treaters, and playing with this balloon...

But, then I got really tired- sleepy chicken- so I took a little nap while Mom and Dad hung out.
It was a really fun first Halloween! Mom said next year I might even be old enough to eat some candy- oh boy! Happy Halloween everyone!

My dedication...

Last Sunday at church I got dedicated. Mom said lots of babies get baptized, but at our church we do dedications... Seems to me it's more about Mom and Dad and my family promising to teach me about God and raise me to know Him. Sounds pretty good to me! I was happy because I got to wear a big boy outfit and have a party at my house afterwards!

Here we are with Pastor Tom- he's so nice, and funny!Ok, so I was getting a little tired in this picture- we had such a fun day! After church, all my grandparents, aunts and uncles, and great aunts/uncles came over for lunch and hangin' out. I love my family so much!

Dad said I could...

It's so fun having time with my daddy... today I was a little fussy so he let me chew on his money clip and credit cards! Mom was so happy about it too- well, she said that, but she didn't really sound like she meant it. But, Dad didn't seem to mind, so I just kept chewin'!

Getting so big!

Just wanted you to know that I am 8 months old!!! And, I thought you might want to check out my cute tummy...oh, and my super cool shirt with a tie on it :)
I had so much fun with this photo shoot that I decided to see how the X tasted...mom just took so many pictures I got a little hungry!
And, then I just got tired of having my picture taken...time to play!

i love to...

...SWING! This is the fun swing in my new backyard- i love it! It's the best when Deac is outside running around and I can watch her while I swing. Mom and Dad push me and we have so much fun!

Pumpkins All Around!

Mom took me to the pumpkin patch at church today- so cool! Aren't these pumpkins wierd looking? They were bumpy and so fun!
Here I am with a pumpkin that's just my size!

Yep, I for sure love the pumpkin patch! Now I just have to figure out what to be for Halloween...

Yum Yum!

Just wanted you guys to see how cool I look in my new high chair! No more Bumbo for me, I'm a big boy! I'm enjoying eating lots of veges, fruits, chicken & turkey! And, today, mom made blueberries and cherries- can't wait to try those, I hear they're tasty! Gotta go, time for dinner!

A little snack for Deac...

I keep meaning to put this picture up because I thought it was so funny one night when Deac decided to finish off my dinner... I love my dog!!!

Family Fun Friday!

Dad built me my first fort out of my new alphabet playmat! Isn't it cool?
Here I am with my mommy and the Deacster... I wanted some pictures with mommy since she is usually the one taking all the pictures.
And, here I am just chillaxin' with my dad... I love him so much!

7 months old!

Hey guys, what's up? I just wanted to let you know that I turned 7 months old today! To celebrate, I get to spend the weekend with Grandpa Sam and GranDeb- my first sleepover weekend! Mom and Dad are going up to Crooked Creek-they said when I'm a little bigger I can come along. But, I'm excited to hang out in HEB for a couple days of fun! Here's the pictures mom took of me today- I even got birthday kisses from Deac!

Super Duper September

Here I am practicing holding my own bottle... I don't do it much, but sometimes I like to show off
Time for dinner with my daddy! Here I am at a fun YL event with my friend Pierson Reiger...
And, check me out with the Cahill's new puppy, Lucy! I LOVE dogs, especially ones my size!

Hi friends! Sorry it's been so long since I've blogged! I've had so much going on this month! I'm busy sitting up by myself, eating lots of new foods (carrots, pears, apples, sweet potatoes, and more!), making fun new noises, and playing all the time. This month I had my first sleepover without mom and dad at my Grandpa Sam and GranDeb's house-it was so fun I decided to go back this coming weekend while mom and dad are at YL leadership camp. Yay! I'll be 7 months old on Friday, so check back soon for more pictures because I'm sure mom will take some.

I'm 6 months old!

Yay! This week was my half birthday! Of course Mom had to celebrate by taking yet another picture of me, but I didn't mind because I got to wear a new outfit from the Kleagers! Don't I look grown up? To mark my first half birthday we went to the doctor and found out that I weigh 15 lbs and am 26 1/2 inches long! So big!

Steamboat Springs Weekend!

Well, I've finally got a couple minutes to blog again... Mom and I are sitting at the computer and I am drooling and typing all at the same time! This weekend I got to go with Mom & Dad and our friends the Kleagers and Kobergs up to Steamboat Springs. I had never heard of it and never been there, so it was quite the adventure! The best part was that 3 of my best friends were there- Presley Koberg, and Jacob & Owen Kleager! They are so fun to play with and really make me laugh. We got to do so many cool things- we swam in hot springs (I've been in a pool before, but these pools were warm!), went on alpine slides (ok, so mom and I didn't go, but next year I am in for sure!), and watched the Olympics (wasn't that opening ceremony cool?). It was so fun being away with friends- especially the Kleagers since they are moving next week to Germany. I am very sad that I won't get to play with Jacob and Owen all the time, but mom says maybe someday we will go visit them! Enjoy these pictures from our fun weekend!
