I must say, Walt’s first Halloween was a huge success! By success I basically mean that he went along with all our hoopla with very little push back. It was like a tame episode of Toddlers and Tiaras (only not tiaras, or tutus) As most of you saw, Walt dressed up as a monkey (appropriately…

First Yamboree
As you can see, I’m so far behind. A couple weeks ago we made the trek to Gilmer for Walt’s first annual Yamboree. (For all my fellow grammar Nazi’s, I realize that “first annual” is not possible… it’s not an annual occurrence until it’s happened more than once. Well, I promise this will be an…
Walt is CRAWLING!
Ok, I admit. I really thought Walt would either army crawl until his 16th birthday, or just skip traditional crawling all together and go right to walking. But, like most things in Walt’s life, I was very wrong!. When I brought him home from daycare last Thursday, I nonchalantly plopped him on the floor. He…
Nine-Month Stats
Just saw Dr. G! The visit was really great. Walt entertained everyone. Naturally, he was not excited about his HepB shot and his flu shot. 😦 I hate how hard he cries… he gets all hiccupy and sad. 😦 Here are his stats: Weight: 23lbs 1 oz …….80-90%Height: 29.3 in ………….90%Head: 19 in……………….off the charts…
Walt is Nine Months Old!
Yesterday, Walt officially turned 9-months old. He has now been on this earth as long as he was in my belly. We have a very curious, social, and attentive little man on our hands. Here’s what he is up to after nine months of life: He wears (get ready for this) 18 mos clothes. I…
Laughing and Clapping
Just wanted to share some recent videos. Walt is a major belly laugher… mostly with Chris. He laughs for me, but he guffaws for Chris 🙂 Here he is giving some slobbery kisses and laughing: Also, Walt learned how to successfully put his hands together and clap. I know, seems like a silly thing to…
Walt’s Hittin’ the Gym! (sans performance-enhancing drugs)
Last Saturday we took Walt to his first MyGym class. Like many similar places (Little Gym, Gymboree, etc), MyGym is a little tyke friendly place for the kiddos to run, crawl, pull, tumble, giggle, and so on. We weren’t quite sure what Walt would think about it. He’s a pretty social guy, but he also…
A Seuss-tastic Shower
Last Saturday I had the privilege of hosting a baby shower for my good friend, Renee. Renee and I have known each other since high school (Plano Dance Force, what?), and even though we went our separate ways to college (she went far, far away to Indiana University), we reconnected upon college graduation and lived…
Walt is Eight Months!
Technically, Walt has been eight months old for about a week and a half, but between work, school, (Mexico), and life, I’m just now getting to this post. There aren’t a ton of pics because Walt squirms and moves so fast that half of them turn out blurry. They even told us at school that…
Viva La Mexico (or "How to have fun on your vacation without missing your kid too much")
By the grace of so many things (grandparents, jobs, necessity, etc), Chris and I were able to take a mini vacation to Mexico last weekend. Being the travel brat that I am, I was still feeling cheated out of our Baby-moon last fall (recall I sprained my ankle and broke my foot…to the point of…
