Talking Up a Storm

Sorry I haven't posted a blog lately. We have been super busy doing all kinds of things. The other day I had to go to the doctor. I weighed 13 pounds, 7 ounces and was 24 and 1/8 inches long. Both my height and weight were in the 90th percentile. I am really loving this thing they call life. Right now I love to lay on my back and just talk, talk, talk (that is until I see the camera). Mom says that I am going to be quite the chatterbox when I grow up. Speaking of Mom, starting Monday, she has to go back to work. She isn't thrilled about it but is very thankful that Aunt Magill is coming to watch me and be there to support her. I am going to miss her terribly, but I know I will have great fun with Sawyer-Man next week!

Talking up a storm


Thanks for my Chicago shirt, Aunt Amanda!

Can't wait to meet you Chicago!

Sweet Mallory (and baby)

These jeans are a little snug, Mom!

Fussy-Wussy was a bear!!

Just To See You Smile

Well, Mom and Dad say I am growing like a weed these days and that my personality is really starting to shine! They love all my different facial expressions and say that they can just stare at me all day! Things are going well these days. I am not as sleepy and am beginning to stay awake the majority of the day. I am enjoying bath time a lot better lately too. I also got to spend the night at Grandma and Grandpa's house for the first time! I had a wonderful time and especially liked Grandpa serenading me! He has such a great voice!

No, I don't have any extra acorns to share!

Mommy says I get this face from my Dad.

And this one from her............


Here's looking at you!

Whoo, I'm pooped!

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.....

Oh Dad!

There is nothing better than kicking my feet
on my changing table

Mom, you are like the paparazzi!

Strap me in tight!

I love riding in the car!

All ready to go 'bye-bye'!

I love watching football with my Dad.

That was a bad pass!

Back In Commission

As most of you know, I got my very first cold! It stunk! I couldn't breathe out of my nose. So, I didn't sleep well at all the first night I had it (neither did my Mom), but once I got used to breathing out of my mouth, it got better. Even though I didn't have a fever my Mom and Dad insisted that I go visit the doctor. At our visit, I found out that I weighed twelve pounds, eight ounces. I was pretty surprised how much weight I gained, but my parents, for some reason, weren't. Anyway, with the help of a Vics-Vapor plug-in and some good ol' suctioning, I am on my way to a complete recovery. Fortunately, I was better by Thursday to watch the Dawgs play in the Capital One Bowl and for my dearest friend, Sawyer's, first birthday party.

Mom and I got all dressed up in our red for the game.

Sammy and I hanging out waiting for the game to start

This is great! I can't wait until I can sit up on my own.

All smiles cause my Dawgs won

This past Friday, Mom, Dad, and I made my first road trip! We went to Birmingham to attend my friend, Sawyer's, first birthday party! The car ride was nice. I'm like my Mom, though, and pretty much slept the entire way there. Friday night we helped Aunt Magill get all ready for the party. Sawyer had a 'safari-themed' party. It was so cool! There were blow-up safari animals everywhere I looked. Saturday was the big day. Sawyer looked so handsome in his outfit. Although, he didn't care too much for his cake, the rest of the party was an absolute hit. I can't wait until I turn one!

'Happy birthday to you'

Sawyer got his own cupcake to eat. He wasn't really in the mood to eat but who would be with all the presents waiting to be opened!

He got some great gifts


Sawyer, you even have a toy named after you! How lucky!

I'm king of the jungle around here mister

What are you looking at, zebra!

Whoa! I am surrounded!

The Best Things Come In Small (And Big) Packages

What a wonderful 1st Christmas! Thank you everybody for all my great gifts. I loved everything (from my penguin bowling set to all my books)! I feel so loved.

Christmas is just so exciting

Getting ready for the big day


I'm not sure why Mommy and Daddy said I received way too many presents!

Can you find me?

I have to guard my gifts with my life (especially with Uncle Mike around)

Noah, don't be jealous that you just got one!

Growing Bigger Everyday

This past week, Mommy, Daddy, and I made Christmas cookies. It was super fun. I was in charge of putting on the sprinkles. While we were baking, we listened to Christmas music. Daddy actually did a lot of the work but oddly refused to take any pictures! It's a great start to new family traditions!

Yummy cookies.......

Mom pretending to look busy!

All in a day's work

Mom and Dad say I am growing and changing everyday! There are a few things I am finding that I love. 1. I love to get in my Baby Bjorn and stroll around the house. I can look up at my favorite things, fans and lights! I also enjoy taking little snoozes when my Mom or Dad are vacuuming the house. 2. I love when my Mom gets me up from a good night's sleep. I am all smiles. 3. I love my changing table! I enjoy talking and kicking my feet. Life is good.

This is great!

This is Daddy's favorite shirt! Pee-paw bought it for me in Arizona. Willie and I are definitely 'Born for Trouble'!

Finally, I also got to go on my first walk! Since the weather has been unusually warm these past few days, 70 degrees, (don't be jealous Aunt Amanda), Mom, Dad, Sam, and I got to venture outside. It was great. This is a picture of me getting ready to go!

It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas.....

The other night, Uncle Goob and Aunt Kelli came over with my cousin Mallory to come babysit me while Mommy and Daddy ran a few errands. When they came home, they surprised me with my very first Christmas tree! They said that they were going to let me pick it out, but it was just too cold. Oh well, maybe next year! Anyway, Uncle Goob and Daddy put on the lights while Mommy and Aunt Kelli put on the garland. Mallory was in charge of supervising. When we were finished, I was amazed at how beautiful it was. One of my favorite things to do right now is to stare at the lights. They just look so cool!

What a sweet family

Mallory, next time just spend the night!

Thanks for watching me Aunt Kelli and Uncle Goob!

Then over the weekend I got all dressed up in my Christmas gear. Mommy, Daddy, and I went to Daddy's work Christmas get-together. I hate to admit it, but I was kind of the hit of the party!

I love my changing table

How do I look?!


All ready to go Mom!

A late night

Finally, I waited to tell you about the best thing that happened to me last week, last. It's certainly a day I'll never forget!! Can you believe I got to meet one of the MOST FAMOUS people in the entire world....SANTA!! He came all the way from the North Pole to Madison, Georgia! I was so excited I could hardly stand it! However, the long car ride made me very sleepy. I could barely keep my eyes open at first, but after a quick diaper change, I was wide awake. Santa asked if I had been naughty or nice this year! I told him I was only a little over three weeks old, but I felt that I'd been pretty nice so far. Mommy and Daddy agreed. Hopefully, I convinced Santa so he'll come to our house in a few weeks!

While visions of sugar plums danced in my head....

Oh Santa!!

Can I meet all your reindeer?
