Growing up is hard to do...but I do it SO cute!

" The past week or so, I have been very clingy and a little emotional. Mommy has started me on solids because I am just so interested in every thing that she puts into her mouth. I have tried organic brown rice cereal, home-made sweet potatoes, and mashed up avocado. The avocado has left me constipated so Mommy stopped giving it to me, and even though she has been giving me prune juice (which I don't really like) I still cannot go! I try to go; even my face turns red, but nothing comes out! So, my Mommy called the Doctor and talked to the nurse. She said to give me 1-2 teaspoons of pure maple syrup mixed with 1 ounce of water up to 2 times a day. She said that it is a natural laxative. I bet I like that more than the prune juice!
On top of that, I am getting in my 2 bottom teeth...yep both of them at the same time. My bottom gums are red, bumpy and swollen. Sometimes when I chew on a toy it hurts really bad and I cry. But then Mommy picks me up and gives me lots of love and everything is all better. I like to have my shusha with me, too, right now. It makes me feel better and when I want to I can chew on it.
Even though I am a bit wrecked (that is what Daddy calls it) this week, I still have fun playing with my friends! Mommy has some pictures of me playing at Derek's house."

Look At Me Swing!!

It was so beautiful last weekend that we took Nathan to the park with our friend and his boys. Nathan experienced the swing for the first time and he LOVED it! He was smiling and laughing! Doesn't he look so cool in his glasses??!!

One of Nathan's new little buddies...Caden!

Nathan went to his first birthday party

We had so much fun at Grant's birthday party today. Most of the kiddos are still too little to enjoy Chuck E Cheese or fit on the rides properly, so us Moms spent most of the time posing them just for pictures. We had a blast at least, and some cute pictures too.

What I realized today is that Nathan REALLY likes older women! I think he already has his first "crush"! :) He never took his eyes off of Nicky...it was cute. It is amazing how fast they learn how to flirt!

He is getting more comfortable sitting in high chairs. He stays pretty occupied because all he wants to do is chew on his hands...we are anxiously waiting for those two teeth to pop out. He is a never ending faucet! His bib was drenched by the time we left Chuck E Cheese.

Welcome

Welcome to my new blog. I switched over from WordPress because you can do so much more on Blogger.

Anyways, I was feeling a bit nastalgic the other day because my little man is growing up WAY too fast. So, I made this little video of my favorite pictures from our first ultrasound up to the first few days after he was born. It is my first attempt so I should get better with each video I do.
