I'm a Monkey

Tonight mommy & daddy got me all dressed up and we went to the church's Fall Festival.

Here I am...I'm the monkey in the middle. I think mommy and daddy are monkeys too, they just didn't dress up.

This is my bud Caden with his mommy. He was Tigger.

Here's my other bud, Braeden, with his mommy & daddy. Braeden loves frogs so he dressed up as one.

All of us boys got together and decided that our mommies were crazy for making us wear these goofy & hot costumes but we just went along with it. We know that if we keep mommy happy, our little baby lives will be much more comfortable. Besides, after we got the pictures taken, our dads helped us shed the costumes. Daddy always comes to the rescue (well, except for the time he went crazy with the rings, I already told you about that). I'm a little worried, though.....I heard mommy talking of another festival that we might be going to in a few nights. Does that mean I have to wear my monkey suit again?

Hello Puppy

At night before bed, mommy has been reading me a book that has animals for me to feel. One of my favorite animals in the book is the puppy. I love feeling the puppy. Today I had a new experience with a puppy. Nana's puppy Andy came to Pa & Gran's house. I thought, "Hey he looks like the puppy in my book" so you know what I did, I pet him like I do the puppy in the book. Funny thing is, the puppy in the book doesn't do anything when I pet him but Andy showed me his teeth. Good thing mommy was right there. She said we'd have to practice being gentle before we see Andy again.

My Speech to the Baby World

When I got home from visiting family today, I had lots to say. I was quiet all day but I just couldn't hold it in any longer. To all my baby friends out there, I know you'll understand what I'm saying. To you adults, let me just tell you that we babies communicate a lot more than you think we do.

Fun with Daddy

When mommy works, it's just me & daddy. Today mommy started her new job so daddy and I decided to have some fun and take some pictures to show mommy when she got home. When daddy said we'd take some pictures, I thought I'd just smile and look cute like always...little did I know daddy had something else up his sleeve. I was playing with my new toy when all of the sudden, one ring went on one arm, another ring went on my other arm, and a ring ended up on my head. Look at me.


Man, it's fun to spend the day with daddy. I wonder what we'll do tomorrow? Mommy hopes that we keep taking pictures but I think some things we'll have to keep just between me and daddy.

On the Move

I've seen other babies do it, I know I should be able to do it, but this crawling thing is a lot harder than it looks. I worked so hard on rolling over but now when I start to scoot forward, my body just rolls over on it's own. Mommy knows that I like the remote control (I'm a boy, all boys like the remote control) so she places it just beyond my reach to make me scoot for it. I get my legs up, my rear in the air, and that's about all I've got. Daddy says I've got to start working out my arms to build my stregnth but I just can't seem to figure out how to do everything at once. Check me out...maybe you can give me some pointers.

Just Some Pics

Haven't been up to much lately. Mommy just took a picture of me sleeping because she thought I looked cute. I'm finally able to wear some new clothes now that it's getting colder.

If you want to know what I've been saying lately, check out my video. (click on the link below) Some people think that mommy & daddy are making the noises but it's really me. I'm good at gurggling now.

Facing the Giants

This is not a post about Jackson, just a post to let you know about a movie that you must see. We went to the movies last night (a date night without Jackson...only the 2nd time we've been to the movies since he was born). In trying to figure out what to see, I decided on Facing the Giants. It's a movie that was created and filmed by a church using nothing but volunteers...no big actors, no fancy directors or sound guys. Sony apparently got word of the movie and picked it up. I was a little worried about the quality of the movie and whether or not it would be able to keep a good story line going through the entire 2 hours. Needless to say, we were blown away. It was the best movie. If you have a chance to see it, you'll find that it's worth every dollar you'll pay for the overpriced tickets and popcorn. It's not just about football, it's about faith and portrays lessons that apply in all of our lives daily. One word of caution...take a box of Kleenex, you'll need them.

Here's the movie website to give you more information: http://www.facingthegiants.com/

It's a bird, It's a plane....

No....It's SUPERBABY!

I believe I can fly... not quite yet, I'm still trying to figure out how to crawl.

Happy Birthday Aunt Melissa

Today is my Aunt Melissa's birthday! Mommy helped me take a picture to wish her a Happy Birthday! Aunt Melissa is an Aggie so I feel bad that my Red Raiders had to beat her Aggies this past weekend. Daddy didn't feel too bad, he was cheering hard for the Raiders. I didn't know he could get so excited.
