"Ho! Ho! Ho!"

We have been putting up our Christmas decorations during the past week. Since I am a little older this year, I am way more into them then I was last year. I love looking at the lights and have found a new love for the jolly, bearded-man dressed in red: Santa! I point to him every time I see him around the house or in a store; I have recently learned what he says and I point while saying, "Ho! Ho! Ho!"  I even use my low-voice to say it. My parents tell me that he is going to bring me presents, but I don't quite understand that, yet.




I am on the move all the time, which makes me a little difficult to catch with the camera!

16 Months!

I am 16 months old today!

Using a Fork

I am used to eating with my hands, but it leaves my fingers pretty sticky. I don't mind them being dirty, but I do mind when my parents try to clean them with a wet cloth! So, we are attempting to use a fork. When I first tried, I thought it was super funny to throw it across the room. But, that didn't make my belly full!

After a few more tries, I agreed to hold the fork, but still wanted to pick up the food with my hands. 

I gave the fork a try and realized that it does work! I kept switching off between using the fork and using my fingers. 

I might have made even more of a mess, which means that my parents still need to wipe me down after dinner time. At least I got to try something new! 

Ball Pit Giggles

I love playing in my ball pit! My Daddy calls it my 'dunk tank' because he always dunks me in and tickles me; I laugh and laugh and laugh! I like to throw the balls at my Mommy when she pops her head through the openings. After throwing them at her for a while, and laughing the whole time, she decided to video me. Take a look!

15-Month Check-Up

I went to the doctor last night for my 15-month check-up visit. This was the first time that I got to stand on the big-boy scale to weigh in instead of laying on the baby scale. I thought it was pretty cool! I was a very good boy for the doctor. He said that I am reaching all of my milestones and I am growing right on track.

Here are my new stats:

Weight: 25.7 pounds

Height: 31.5 inches

What do you mean I need to get 4 shots!?

My 1st Football Game!

I went to my very first football game over the weekend. Uncle Nick was coaching and the game was during the day, so it was a perfect chance for us to get bundled up and watch the game! I liked sitting in the bleachers and looking all around. I got to see both mascots; I thought they were pretty funny! I snuggled up between everyone and stayed alert for the entire game!

We got to go on the field to congratulate Uncle Nick on his team's win. I was so excited to see him!

Happy Halloween!!

I got to celebrate Halloween a few times this year! We were invited to a Halloween party at my friend Taylor's house.  A few of my other buddies were there. We got dressed up in our costumes, played games, and ate snacks. I dressed up as a puppy dog!!

I was Pluto! My Mommy and Daddy dressed up as Minnie and Mickey Mouse. I liked seeing them in their costumes!

 Here are a few more pictures from the Halloween party:

On the night of trick-or-treat, the weather was too cold and rainy for me to go outside. So, I got dressed in my puppy costume again and helped my parents pass out candy.

I liked being able to take as many pieces of candy out of the bowl as I wanted! 

I looked out the window and watched the costumed kids walk along the sidewalk.

After a while, I got sleepy and decided to snuggle with my Mommy on the couch while Daddy finished passing out the candy. It was a fun night! 

I thought I would attempt to go trick-or-treating one more time at Grandma Lynn's house, but it was even colder! So, I helped her pass out candy to the kids, too! 

Aunt Lindsey and Uncle Nick kept sneaking chocolate to me when my Mommy wasn't looking! It was soo yummy!

Halloween was a lot of fun this year!!

Woof! Woof!
