Party Boy!!

Cashed Out!!

I was sooo sleepy, I didn't even want to wake up for my favorite time.....bath time!!

The Shirt Says It All!!

Mother's Day!!

Since this was Mommy's First Mother's Day, I was EXTRA good for her. We had a busy weekend. After helping at the flower shop, we cooked supper for Grandma Anderson Saturday night. On Sunday, we left bright and early to go visit Grandma Gentle. Too bad she had to work, but its finally nice farmers were able to be in the fields Sunday. After lunch, we headed back home to spend some time as our "family." We stopped at a little park shelter on the way so I could eat and Mommy had to have a little photo shoot.

My First Baby Food!

Shortly after turning 4 months old, mommy and daddy started

feeding me vegetables ~ I like the sweet potatoes, squash, carrots, and peas...

but I wasn't a big fan of the green beans!! Yuck! Now I am onto fruits and those

taste pretty good!

4 months old ~ April 17

Mom is just now getting up my 4 month picture and here I am

My First Easter

My mommy know she is WAY behind in updating my blog.

I finally convinced her she better get some new pics up otherwise people

might not recognize me anymore!!!!

My Baptism ~ Palm Sunday

On Palm Sunday, I was Baptized. Mommy was baptized on Palm Sunday, too!

I finally got to relax for a little bit after everyone joined us for lunch.

It was so much fun seeing everyone, but I was sure tired!

Happy St. Patty's Day & 3 Month Birthday To Me!

I turned 3 months old on St. Patty's Day!! I'm getting to be such a big boy already!

Daddy was waiting all day to go out for corned beef and cabbage.....and they were even drinking green beer....hmmm...I wish my bottle was green!

It was kinda hot out today....I was sweating in my car seat,

so mom stripped me down when we got home!

Getting ready for bed!

My First Stroller Ride Outside

It was so nice out earlier this week, Mommy took me for my first stroller ride down the road.

I had a lot of fun and enjoyed the fresh air. That sun was sure bright - I've been cooped up all winter!!

Happy Birthday Mommy!!

Here I am ready to take Mommy out to eat for her birthday!!
Mom decided to have ANOTHER photo shoot of me....I guess she thought this outfit was cute. That's what she says about ALL of my outfits!

Rolling Over!!

Here I am working on my new trick......
This is hard work, but I eventually got it a few days later - I rolled over on March 14!!
Just a few days before my 3 month birthday!!!!

Eating Cereal by Spoon!!!

At just 2 1/2 months old, I ate my first bites of cereal by spoon. I've been getting it in my bottle since I'm such a big boy!! The milk just wasn't cutting it!!!

My First Illini Game!!

I was pretty unhappy when it came time to leave for the game.

I told Mom and Dad I didn't care how cute they thought I was,

I was really just trying to work out a poo poo!

Daddy got me my very first pair of shoes - and even Nike's!

I was ready to shoot some hoops with those things on!

Here we are before the game - I loved all of the orange and bright lights.

I couldn't look around fast enough!!

Mommy and Daddy put these big things on my head - they said it was because that place gets too loud for my little ears. I'm sure I will thank them later!

And...here we are after the game. I was working on taking a small nap.

Speaking of nap.....here I am totally cashed out before we headed to the car.

What a big day!

My Very Own Couch

I'm such a big man, I have the couch all to myself!!

Helping Mommy Cook Supper

Here I am in my chair helping mommy make supper....I was asking her to hurry up with my supper while she was at it!

2 months old!

Happy 2 month Birthday to me!

Too bad I can't have any cake!

Little did I know it.....Mommy and Daddy were getting ready to take

me for my 2 month shots. Yikes those hurt!

Later that night....guess the shots weren't that bad. I think they were harder on mommy.

My 1st Valentine's Day

Such a serious face...hmmmm!

Here we are right before mommy and daddy went out to eat for Valentine's day.

Friday the 13th!

Here I am in my bumbo chair again. I survived my first Friday the 13th!!
