A Favorite Toy

You are a little over 7 months old in this picture. So beautiful. You look a lot like both your mamma and your daddy. favoring more mom now. So very curious and exploring everything as you should be. You love bright and colorful just like your mamma, she likes some wild colors too.You love the little monkey on this exersaucer so much. Maybe if it breaks someday I will keep it just because. I wonder if you will have memories later of it. You love it so, the monkey that is.

I Think This Girl Loves You!






I think this girl loves you just a little bit! Your Aunt Jocelyn just absolutely adores you. She lives in California and had come back to visit you. You were just hanging out with her and attempting to remove parts of her face...LOL! She tolerates way to much from you but she does it out of love and oh how she loves you. Glad you have her, she's very special to you and to us!

Easter Bunny's Coming

You on the other hand had an infatuation with a chicken.You just had to have that chicken.....so you did! Of course it played the chicken dance! How convenient.I want to give you everything but that wouldn't be good for you. But I can give you all the love I have, that will be wonderful for you. So I will! I can't ever see you being without that. So Happy Easter baby!

7 Months Old














Just being the ever so cute and adorable little guy that you are. We couldn't help but spoil you with love, with everything. That's what you commanded of us, we couldn't help ourselves! That is a face that cannot and will not be without someone to love ever! I remember you bouncing all the time! You bounced in the jumper in the doorway, bounced in our arms, bounced this toy till it couldn't take anymore. You just loved to bounce...so cute! I think maybe you learned this from your Tiger toy. Oh boy! You always have a smile, so bright it lights our home with such love and joy!

Loving The Time With Mama!







You just love it when mom plays peek a boo with you. You just love mom period. She loves to peek through your toy and make you laugh! Moms are irreplaceable. You seem to be a music lover. Anytime we play music you just stop. I think you get that from your mama. She does to.

New Highchair Or Prison

What were you people thinking? You can just see the look on that little face. Surely you all don't think that I am going to stay here with the big green thing for a long time do you? DO YOU??? It wasn't that bad really I think you kind of liked it over the wooden antique you could have been put into. Grandmas cheap and thrifty. It was close. This one just fit you. The Cadillacs of highchairs I guess.Whatever the baby wants you know! Whatever.... the baby wants!

First Days In the Highchair! Yikes!


Before we know it you will be terrorizing the place, guess we better enjoy this time of stillness before the house comes down...lol!
