7 Months

Hi everybody, I hope you guys are warmer than we are up here in Chicago!
 Last weekend, Daddy let me watch a little Mickey Mouse Clubhouse in his bed
 and of course Hunter got to snuggle with me. I really really love Hunter!
 I love this puppy too
 but not as much as this guy!
 don't we make a cute pair
 awe come on....that tickles
we are becoming best friends

 Its hard to believe that I'm already 7 months old and weigh 21 pounds. I'm getting so big now that I can sit in the front of the shopping cart
 oh man....I never knew what I was missing until now! You should see all the toys!!!
 Mommy had to raise my exosaucer up another level because I'm getting so tall
 I'm even in a big boy car seat now. I threw a big fit at first but as you can see....it didn't take me long to settle in
 Hello Ladies....I'm getting ready for Valentine's Day, one problem though.....this shirt is already pretty tight I'm not sure it will fit in a month :(

  Mommy thought it was time I started trying to pick up things with my hands so here I am trying Puffs for the first time, its so hard to pick the little suckers up!
here I am being silly

Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone, I wanted to tell you about my awesome trip to Texas for the Christmas Holiday. I got to see my cousin Braxton again, he was soooo excited to see me he gave me a great big hug! He's the best :)

 Mimi had a walker for me, unfortunately my feet didn't touch the ground
 After the plane ride and all the excitment I was pooped!
 The next day Grandad drove us to Austin to visit Great Grandpa.

 Hard to believe's he's almost 95 huh
 We listened to a quartert sing Christmas Carols, it was really neat
 My Aunt Kelly....she is sooo silly
 I tried out Mimi's highchair and that was pretty cool. I got the hang of it real quick (mommy bought me one as soon as we got home :)
 Braxton tried to share his food with me but Mommy said I can't eat that stuff yet
 We did a lot of playing together

 The next day Mommy and Braxton made Christmas cookies
 I LOVE cookies
 Ummm....what do you mean I can't eat any? That's not fair!!
 Mimi said I could....ha ha ha
After all the cooking, we headed to the park. I wasn't realy crazy about this swing. Braxton told me it was ok but I don't know!
 Now he's trying to tickle my feet, save me Mimi...save me
 Ok, this is more my speed
 Oh no, what are we doing now???

 Braxton is such a good helper
 Monday we headed to the zoo
 Mommy got this cool wagon for us, now I can check things out in style
 Oh yeah....I can really scope out the chicks now!
 I wasn't that interested in the animals, maybe next time :)
 Aunt Kelly let me borrow her hat
 Soooo this is the petting zoo, I've heard about this place

 After all that, I had to catch a little shut eye
 We headed down to Nana and Grandpa's house, check out this super cute hat Nana got for me :)


Here I am having too much fun
 Great Granny came over and we got to open presents, I love presents
 What does that say Grandpa?
 Ok, how am I supposed to do this?
 It looks kinda hard
 oh wait....I got it now
 Did Santa bring me just what I asked for????
 No way...no freaking way he brought the puppy I wanted
 I LOVE IT!
Christmas morning we headed back to Mimi and Grandad's


 Daddy was helping figure out my new toys
 Here I am in my Christmas PJs

 On the plane ride home I was pretty fussy so Daddy had to hang out in the back with me until I finally fell asleep. What a trip. Thank you to everyone for the great time and of course all the great presents!!!
