Be Mine

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

I had my first experience with paint! Mommy thought it would be fun to make Valentine's Day paintings instead of buying gifts. I really liked all the bright colors and making a mess on my high chair! My paintings are one-of-a-kind and pretty darn cute!

New Hat

Check out my new hat Aunt Darcy bought me! It's nice and warm...keeps my ears oh so warm!

4 Month Check-Up

Whew, I'm growing so fast! I now weigh 18.5 lbs and am 26.5 in long, which puts me in the 97% in both categories!

Testing out my new high chair!

The doctor told me I could start eating cereal - yummy! Mommy ran out and bought me new bowls, spoons and bibs so that we could test this cereal thing out. I told her I didn't really need a bib but she insisted I wear one.

I wasn't too interested the first time as Mommy waited TOO late and I was so hungry that all I was interested in was my bottle! We gave it another try the next day and man was that some good stuff! It managed to leak down my neck so maybe Mommy was right when she said I needed a bib! I've been eating it for about a week now and I've got it mastered. I open my mouth when I see the spoon coming and smack my lips because it taste so good!

Family Pictures

MORE PICTURES?! When will all the picture taking stop? I behaved this go-around and didn't wet myself and everything else in sight!

Check out my dimples! I have them just like my dad.


I was trying to hide from the silly photographer.

I'm getting pretty good at holding myself up!

Check out my shirt...Mommy says it makes me look like such a big boy!

My First Christmas

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I made it through my first Christmas! I have to say, Christmas is pretty cool and I think I'm going to like this holiday. What's better than lots of blinking, colorful lights, lots of new toys and good food? Well, I didn't get to eat any food, but it all sure looked yummy. My Uncle Brent, Gigi and Great Grandma and Granddad came down so all our family was in Texas this year.





Santa brought me a really neat CD player that plays songs and makes animal noises when I push the big orange button. I also got this little car that I can scoot around on and as soon as I'm able to walk, it turns into a little walker thing. My stocking was also full of Disney DVDs, CDs and balls!

Uncle Brent is starting to think I'm not so bad! He was a little hesitant to hold me when I was really little but now I think he likes me. He says babies don't like him and they also cry when he holds them. When Uncle Brent was holding me, I spit up all over his hands. Everyone started to laugh and I didn't think it was so funny; I broke down crying!

This isn't my toy from Santa, but this one is pretty cool too. It's Pooh and all his friends...they sing to me while I ride around. Aunt Darcy was nice enough to push me all over the patio on Christmas Day.Great Grandmas Ila has been out of practice for awhile. I'm the first new baby in the family since Uncle Brent!

My First Wish List To Santa

I've been a very good boy this year and I let Santa know it today! Mommy, Aunt Darcy and Jess took me to the mall today to have my picture taken with Santa. Man, was he a big guy! I wasn't too interested in talking to Santa, but all the blinking Christmas lights really got me excited.

I can't wait to see what Santa leaves me under the tree this year!

Update On What I've Been Up To

Lots to catch you up on since it's been a few weeks.

I helped Mommy put up our Christmas lights! We lined the whole yard and it looks so good - I can't wait for my first Christmas even though I won't know what's really going on. We aren't hanging lights on the house since it's too big - maybe when I get older I can help do that.

Mommy also started back to work last week. I really didn't want her to leave me so I decided to sleep in and she had to come wake me up at 8:00...haha. She was only gone for a couple hours and I got to hang out with Miss Kara and her 3 kids. I took a couple cat naps, but mostly I was too busy checking out all my new surroundings.

Yet another first....my first time flying! We woke up at 3:00 a.m. Thanksgiving morning to catch our flight to KC to see all of Daddy's family. Flying was pretty cool - I slept on the flight. Mommy and Daddy need to learn how to pack better so that we don't have so many bags! This is Daddy and me hanging out in the Admirals Club before our flight.

Santa visited Chapman...it was the coolest thing, he rode in to town on a big firetruck! It was pretty cold but Mommy got me all bundled up before we went out to see the big man in the red suit!
