a few more.....

Thought I'd add a few more while I waited for itunes to burn some cds for school.

The 1st one was taken July 31st at Wayne's. (Vera's friend) Rob had to work late and Vera had asked us to come for dinner. B had a grand time playing in the yard with Aunt Kathy!

The rest were taken June 22nd on the way to Cinci for Ashley's wedding. B enjoyed the 5 hr. ride..sleeping for about 1 1/2 hrs. and looking out the window the rest of the time. He got cranky the last 1/2 hr. on the way there and on the way home. He was just tired of sitting. I discovered that turning on some classical music calmed him down. (Though Daddy said lucky.)

just a few more for tonight! :-)

these are the last 4 for tonight.... the 1st is B with his Aunt Kathy (holding him) while a neighbor of Grandma P's and Wayne's gives them a ride in a go cart. One of B's favorite toys is Daddy's remote....he will fight to get it! Daddy had this bear chair from when he was a little boy and I got it out for B last weekend...he loves to sit in it since it is his size. The last is a random photo Papa took one weeknd when they were over.

Hopefully I will get a chance to post some more later!!! Hope you all enjoyed! Have a good week!!

meet the new cookie monster!

I forgot to post these.....Guess I was interrupted and forgot that these were in the draft....

Well...Rob decided B just HAD to try oreo double stuff cookies. He LOVED them as you can tell on his face! The 1st 2 are from the 1st time he had ever had them. Then the next weekend Nana and Papa came over and they wanted to see him eat a cookie....so this time we stripped him. Thank goodness...he had it all over!!

One of his favorite pasttimes!

I managed to snap this one morning (before school started back) while B was playing in his room. He LOVES to play with the laundry (clean OR dirty!) and it will entertain him for about 15 min. He'll take it out of the basket and move the clothes from one pile to another. Sometimes I'll sneek in and throw the clothes back in!

a few of the promised photos! :-)

Ok.....so, here are a few of the promised photos. These are from B's birthday...I made his "smash" cake. The 1st time to ever try decorating a cake like this...not TOO hard. But, it was also a small, single cake. He never did get much of the cake and he wasn't too messy with it. He did not care for Daddy's cheesecake. :-P

1st posting!

Hi everyone! Well...I'm going to try a blog..maybe I can keep up with this a bit better than the webpage! (ha ha ha...we'll see!)

Things have been busy here at our house. School has been back since Aug. 13th for me and the 16th for the students. Brian started back at daycare in the infant room on the 7th (so that I could get my room prepped and him adjusted to a stricter routine again). Well.......he didn't do so well. He ended up getting 3 (!!!!) incident reports for biting when he got to go visit the toddler room. After the 3rd report they decided that he needed to be moved up into the toddler room. He LOVES it there. Lots more to do (they go out to play for one!!), more room in their area, riding/walking toys and they eat like big people....at a table! He has gotten SO big! At his year dr. appt. he weighed 28.? lbs and was 31 1/4 in. long. Should be interesting to see his stats in Oct. at his 15 month appt. He also is mastering walking!!!!!! YEAH! (though I'm going to be running around ALOT more!) Friday night was the 1st that he discovered that he can get around without Mommy or Daddy hanging on and all weekend long he has done nothing but try to walk around. He's also added 2 upper molars, for a total of 10 teeth. (OUCH! When he bites!)

Rob has been doing alot of traveling too....though he hasn't been gone more than a day. He's been to San Antonio, Maryland (I don't remember the city though!) and will be going to Minneapolis on Thurs. (he won't even be gone over-night for this trip).

I have a couple of pictures to post tonight, but will post some more tomorrow after Brian goes to bed.

As you can see...Brian's discovered the fridge!!!
