Top teeth!

Here are my top teeth! They came in over the weekend! Just kidding that is a apple star puff Dad gave me. He thought it was so funny and it looks like I have rabbit teeth! But I did really cut my top right tooth, no wonder I was so fussy. The second one isn't to far off from cutting through too. My favorite chew toy is a frozen washcloth.




I am weighing in at 16lbs and 11 ounces. I am growing like a weed, don't worry mom I am not ready for college just yet. But I am gaining some independence and want to feed myself. Alright I need a serious nap to recover from all the fun things we did over the weekend.

Ok mom I am ready for my tylenol and my washcloth.

Memorial Day Weekend

Whew it has been a busy weekend for me. My Aunt Alyssa came in town to play with me and I gave her the present of baby spit-up. We went to Ikea, got the coffee cup below, Cracker Barrel, and then they snuck out to play a game called Bingo. Although they didn't win anything they sure had a good time.
Thanks for coming down and spending the weekend with us, we can't wait to see you again! I promise to have some more spit up for ya!



It's not a cup of Joe, it's a cup of Chase

This is mommy's coffee cup that she drank out of when I was first born. Those every two hour feedings really made her tired.


Nah I am just kidding, can you believe they make this for a plant at Walmart! Well mom thought it was an awesome prop and had to take some
pictures with me in it!

7 Months

Over the weekend I celebrated my 7 month birthday. Mom didn't bake a cake, but she did cook Me up something special!










I have a few new ingredients to add to my achievements. I can sit up all by myself! Another great skill is grabbing things. Mommy calls me her Grabby Crabby, because I am also cutting teeth too. But you will see that later.







I am eating a variety of baby food now, veggies and meats are my favorite. For breakfast I still like my cereal and oatmeal.








I haven't started crawling just yet, but that isn't too far away. Mom and Dad keep trying to get me to, I fake them out by moving one hand and leg, but then I flatten out like a pancake. I can scoot from one end of the blanket to the other.




I can't talk in grown up language but I am babbling. Mom and Grandma are teaching me baby sign language, I totally know the one for Milk. They do that before I see the bottle and I get so excited I lose control of my arms and legs, they just flail about.






What would a wood chuck do if a wood chuck could chuck wood?!? I have started to twist my tongue side to side. Someone told me that it is a genetic trait, well come to find out mom and dad can do it too, so I guess they both gave it to me!

Tickle Me Chase

So for those of you who don't know, I am seriously ticklish! You just have to come close and look like you are going to tickle me and I start to giggle. Mommy caught me on video for you all to see. She calls me her own personal Tickle Monster. I hope it makes you laugh as much as I did...


Brushy, Brushy my two Teeth-y


Since I am eating sugary goodness now (see below), Mom went out and got me a toothbrush for my Two pearly white teeth!
Dad showed me how it worked. Hey shouldn't it be called my two teeth-brush?!?





What the...this isn't a cookie, I can't eat it...





Hey wait a minute this isn't so bad, it is starting to feel pretty good on my sore gums.








Alright I think I got the hang of it Dad, I am a big boy and can do this by myself.. give me that thing!












hmmm....Warble, garble tarrrble... Guess you can't understand me when it is in my mouth.










Yay! My first - two teeth brushing session is done for now! Psst if you see Copper and Baker let them know mommy got them toothbrushes too, but they are going to get something called liver flavored paste, I got shortchanged, I didn't get any liver flavored paste? wonder what that tastes like? OHHHH is it like the Biter cookie, I want to try some mommy PLEASE!
Almost forgot, below is a youtube video of my first steps in my walker! A little moonwalking for your pleasure...

Cookie Monster

Oh boy, do I have something to share, well not share, you have to go and get your own... but I will tell you that mommy has a special treat called Cookies! Biter cookies to be exact, no they don't bite back like the name says, they are the best things ever.








Here is my first introduction to the sugary goodness. Notice the end is bitten off, mom got ahold of it before I did, she said it was to make sure it tasted good.

Alright mom now you know how yummy it is, so go and get your own, these are mine.


Yumm-o this is awesome, I wonder if I can fit the whole thing in my mouth?!?


It is mine, all mine, you can not have it I say!











AHHH Where is the cookie, where did it go, who took my cookie away.......





Oh wait it just fell down my bib, oh thanks Dad for picking it up for me, whew good thing too because I was just getting started.





According to mom and dad, when I couldn't find my cookie, stupid bib, I lost my sanity for a minute and got a little hysterical. Hey you would too, if all you ate were sweet peas (which by the way name misleading!) Well anyways, I was so worked up that my eyes were closed and I didn't see that Dad put the cookie back on the tray for a minute or so.

April Showers bring May Flowers

Rub a dub dub look at the baby in the tub!



A Rose by any other name would smell as sweet... wait I am not a rose and that smell isn't so sweet......











Mom and I went to Aunt Lori's to see my girl friend Kaylee for a weekend. Of course they had to do a photoshoot, mom secretly is trying to create a photo monster in Aunt Lori! That way she can justify all the props and such she gets to "share" :)





We all had so much fun playing around in the tub and flowers, and Kaylee had a little too much fun discovering my hair.

















You can almost hear her thought process... Ah isn't my boyfriend's head so cute, I will give him a little love tap, ohhh is it is so soft and fuzzy.
hmmm What is this stuff on his head, is it dirt? I will take it off for him....yeoooowww ouch! Oops guess it is attached.... It didn't hurt really, I was more shocked she found hair up there.

6 Months

Can you believe that I am 6 months already! I have learned so much over these few months. I am now eating baby food and cereal three times a day. I can sit up by myself for a few seconds before toppling over. I have discovered that when I push up on my hands and knees, I can rock back and forth.

By far my favorite accessory is the Jumparoo, I love to hop hop hop all day long.
I am weighing in at 15 lbs and 25 3/4 inches long. My two bottom teeth are pearly white, you can see them when I smile.


Grandma takes care of me during the week for mommy. We do lots of fun stuff, but my all time favorite is Mall Walking! There are so many cool things to look at and people watching is my favorite sport.
In the glorious mall they have a special store that makes Teddy bears. Grandma got me a police teddy bear, it looks just like daddy! I named him Sarge, we are excellent friends, and he taste good too.


My 6 month birthday was Grandma D's birthday too!! My present to her was a photo shoot with who else but ME! I told mom I didn't have enough photos with Grandma and that she needed to get moving.
