The Slyes came for a visit

As you can see Cooper and I really enjoy tag teaming Papa Joe. We had a great time wrestling and jumping off the rocking chair. I really enjoy when Coop comes to play.

Mom's Favorite Time of the Year!

Mom always gets excited about Halloween and buys my costume really early. This year it was her bright idea to make me a dinosaur. I am not that crazy about it because the claws cover my hands up. Hope it fits better before Halloween!

It's that time of year again!

My Dad is sooo excited that football season is here again!! He got me this cool jersey and I think I look pretty studly in it. Mom and Dad tell me that the elephant says "Roll Tide!" I am trying to say it but, it's not very clear yet.

Our favorite book

Mom, Dad and I have to read my favorite book every night before bedtime. I love you through and through, is the best book ever!

Gymboree

Mom, Dad, and I went to Gymboree to play. I love this place. We have been several times and it just gets better every time. You can run, climb, throw balls, whatever you want to do. I love it!

Lovin' the Backyardigans!

As you can see, when the Backyardigans are on I am totally focused. I am soooo excited because we get to go see them in person in a few weeks. We are going up to Nashville to visit the Slyes and go to see the Backyardigans. I can't wait!!! Just to be honest, I am afraid I may use the bathroom in my pants just from excitement when I see them. Stay tuned for pics from the show!

Mimi's Birthday!

Mom and I went to the 'Mont to suprise Mimi for her birthday! She was so suprised and had NO idea we were coming. We had this great chocolate cake. As you can see I really enjoyed it!

Nanny's house ...

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE going to Nanny's house. All I have to do is say"Pease" and I get a Milky Way mini candybar. If I am nice and say "Pease" really cute, I even get another one! Then there is a dog IN THE HOUSE to play with. Man, it doesn't get any better than being at Nanny's. Unless it's being at Mimi and Granddaddy's or Nana and Papa Joe's . I pretty much get to do fun things there too. Oh boy, what a life!

Being silly!

Morning after candids...

This is the morning after my first night in a big boy bed. I was pretty pooped. My teeth were bothering me last night. I guess Mom is pretty pooped too. She looks really rough this morning. Oh well, that is what nap time is for!

Can't keep me down!!

I told you I showed them! I did really well the first night because I was too tired to get up. Although nap time the first time with rails was a whole different story! Mom and I went rounds about staying in my bed. I gave her a run for her money but she finally won out. I'll get her the next round!!

BigBoy Bed Time!!

I wondered how long it would take for Dad to put these rails together. I figured out how to crawl out of my crib so, they put these things up. I thought I might give him a hand. Finally I just gave up. So a few hours later it was ready. They thought these rails would keep me in but I showed them!

Emma is here!

Mom had to borrow a pic from Aunt Mandy's blog so we could show off our cutie pie! Emma is the newest member of our clan. She is a real cutie. I looked at her but I was really interested in her car seat. I just hope Mom doesn't get any crazy ideas - like I need a brother or sister.

All mixed up!

I found it hard to get out of my bumbo today. I thought I would play with it after Mimi used it for my seat while she cut my hair. I don't know if it is because I have not used it since I was about 9 months old or is it that I was in it wrong? Oh well, whatever the issue I had to have Mom help me out.

You know that saying....

"Didn' your Mom teach you to get in out of the rain." Well, my Mom told me to go out and play in it. It's a crazy place around here. It was a boys' day. Mark, Kyle, and Cooper came over to play. We had done about all the damage we could on the inside and wanted out. (Not really we didn't hurt a thing in the house - it's just much more fun outside!) Mom and Wendy set up the water toys so we could play our little hearts out. As you can see we had a blast. I even found a cool puddle to splash in. I don't know how long Mom's insanity will last but I'm going to enjoy it while I can.
