Blocks

I don't claim to be Mr. Patient. After watching this little video clip you will see what I mean. I get a little frustrated when I can't get the blocks to stack! And YES that is a burp you hear. Notice how it doesn't even phase me! I am all boy!!

I got it down better this time. I am proud of myself for getting it done on the first try.

Let me explain why I'm wearing only a diaper---My latest thing is to run when I see Mommy or Daddy with a new diaper. When they finally get me pinned down to change it, I can hardly wait to flip over and get up. This was one of those times when Mommy didn't feel like chasing me down to get me dressed again!

Mr. Smiles

Anyone who knows me well, knows I smile and laugh a lot! Check out this video of Daddy making me laugh. I am only ticklish when I want to be, and this night I obviously wanted to be!

I am full of smiles and here I am showing it off. You may notice my hair is getting quite long again, but I'm not so ready to go through a hair cut again!

Remember how I told you I had a lot of hair? Well, check out the bed head in this picture!

Blabber Mouth

Since I've been walking almost a week now, I'm an old pro. It's all I do! Mommy and Daddy are loving it because I can totally entertain myself. I just walk circles around the house and talk to myself a lot! I hear them comment a lot on how happy they are to have a totally child proof house that I can wonder around. Here I am just walking and talking~

Big Bites

The other night Mommy and Daddy gave be a whole banana to bite into. I thought this was pretty funny and took the biggest bites I could--good thing bananas are really squishy! I look like a monkey when I chew with such a mouth full!

Walking: Day 2

This is my second day of walking and I LOVE IT! Mommy and Daddy are sure impressed with how fast I have caught on. I guess that's what happens when you wait 15 months to give it a try! I am so proud of myself and think it's pretty funny to fall down and get back up again. Here are a couple videos of my progress. Mommy and Daddy have been crazy with the cameras, but I'll only make you watch 2 of the many videos!

PS....How nice are my legs?!?! Normally I would be wearing the shorts that go with this pajama shirt, but I had quite the explosion earlier. Just ask my cousins Paul and Ellie!

Soon-To-Be-Walker

As many of you know, I have yet to walk on my own yet. I love walking while holding onto people or things, but letting go has been a big deal for me. Check out this video of me from last night. I was loving walking to daddy from the coffee table!

July 4th Recap

My 4th of July was a week long trip back to North Dakota. We started out at Grandma Mary Ann and Grandpa Scott's house. Then Grandma Deb and Grandpa Scott came back from Montana. I got to see TONS of family this past week. As always, Auntie Heather had her camera so Mommy didn't take many pictures. One of the highlights of this past week is Stella is HOME! She came back from staying at grandma and grandpa's in Montana and she now lives with me again! I get to go for more walks now because she needs her exercise. I like having her around and she seems to think I'm ok too. This house is really filling up fast and rumor has it it's not stopping with Stella!

Cousin Jacob and I with our grandpas

Don't be surprised if we have a hammock in our backyard soon!

Look at what perfect travelers we are!

Stella chews on this so why can't I????

Check back later to see pictures that Auntie Heather took. She always gets some great ones!

A House Full of Friends

Mommy has some good friends from college that came to visit us. Three of them have had babies, so they got to come play too. I know mommy and her friends had a great time. I wasn't so sure about all the commotion..... guess I'm a little sheltered. Mommy says we're going to have to work on that! Here are some pictures of the time we all spent together.

I told you I wasn't the happiest camper!

Anderson and his mommy, Mandie

Lily and her mommy, Megan

Sylvia and her mommy, Jenny

Mommy had 2 other friends come too, but didn't get any pictures of them (so sad). Katie is having a baby around the time my brother gets here and Sara doesn't have any babies yet, but she was my favorite (sorry girls!) Mommy really wishes she would have gotten some video of me flirting with her!
