3 Months

I'm 3 months old! My personality is now starting to show through, which means a lot of smiling and laughing, but also sometimes more crying. I love to play so much that sometimes I get myself too worn out. But that's being a baby, right?

I now hate bath time, but I love Mommy drying me off.

I still like my playmat.

I'm thinking about what trouble I can get into once I start crawling!





















One of my new favorite things is playing Superman with Daddy.






















Look how I can now play with big boy toys.






















I can even sit in my Bumbo seat.





























Since I'm getting better with my hands, when it gets too bright I can pull my hat down to cover my eyes. This is how Mommy and Daddy found me after a long car trip.



























Last but not least, I had what you could call my first play date. It was with my best friend, Cousin Nate. I'm trying to steal his pacifier...





















To get back at him for trying to beat me up when we were newborns. :)

Merry Christmas!

My first Christmas was so much fun. Santa brought me so many toys and I got to spend time with all my family. What more could a little baby boy ask for? For Christmas Eve we went to Grandma and Granddaddy's house.

Me and Cousin Nate looked so cute in our matching outfits, Mommy and Aunt Kristy wanted lots of pictures. I was trying so hard...















But we really didn't like it...















We finally were able to both be calm and have our eyes open!
















Christmas Morning I spent with Mommy and Daddy. Here's our tree after Santa came:




















I woke up early. I can't wait to see what Santa brought!




















This was my favorite toy. Maybe I'll be a big piano player like Daddy.
















Daddy and I are exhausted after all the fun with toys.




















We went to G-ma and Grandpa's house for Christmas dinner. I'm ready to drive there.





















Here's me with all my presents - from Santa, Mommy and Daddy, and all my family! Do you think I got enough?

Two Months

I recently had my two month birthday! Can you believe how old I'm getting? I'm also still on my fast paced growing streak. I weighed in at 14 lbs 11 oz and was 24 1/4 inches. I'm over two feet tall! I've also gotten to do many more activities. I'm now a pro at going out to eat. I love watching everyone especially the waiters. It's all so fascinating! I also got to visit Santa Claus for the first time. I hope he brings me everything I asked for. :)

Look at me multitasking: holding my head up and drooling!















If all the stars line up, I can turn over, here is me in the process.
















I'm in my Christmas outfit, ready to visit Santa.
















Here's me and Cousin Nate asking Santa for toys. Cousin Nate also wants those candy canes.

Monkeying Around

Here's some of the crazy antics I'm up to everyday.

I'm supposed to be playing. Oh well!
















I'm ready for a full day of errands.




















Mommy and I enjoying the nice fall day.




















Such a cute profile, I must say.
















Drying off after my first bath. . .




















I wasn't sure what to make of it.



















I'm getting to know Hilton.



















So many people love me, here's Great-Grandma...















...and G-G-Ma too!

Playing my favorite...the tongue game.

One Month

I am one month old today! And what a month it has been. I'm growing so fast. At my 4 week visit to the doctor, I weighed 12 lbs 3 oz. I like to make sure Mommy and Daddy get a work out when they carry me around. I also am beginning to have a lot more play time. In fact, I have been having so much fun, I graced Mommy and Daddy with my first real smile over a week ago. Since then Mommy has been trying to get a picture of my smile, but has only been able to capture a half smile on camera. I like to be tricky!

So here it is, one of my first (half) smiles.

Happy Halloween!

Halloween was my first holiday. I had a lot of fun even though I couldn't eat any candy.

I was a Red Hot Chili Pepper!




















It took a little while to get used to my costume.




















I also had two other Halloween outfits.
















All those wardrobe changes were exhausting.

My First Family Outing

I went to the Dallas Arboretum as my first family outing. I had lots of fun with Mommy and Daddy enjoying all the trees, flowers, and pumpkins.

Excited on my way to the Arboretum
