Eatin good in the neighborhood...

I've been tryin more & more things lately and mommy says i'm becoming a lil man. I love chicken & hotdogs/corndogs! Im trying more meals at daycare too but some days i just want my good ol babyfood. And i might eat something one day but when they have it again i might not. Oh but i just LOVE the chilibun they make... I even asked for seconds yesterday! -:) At night im pretty much eating whatever it is mommy & daddy are eating. Unless its something i dont like then mommy will feed me some babyfood. She says i have to eat EVERY night! Hehe.

Last night mommy gave me a little tree thingy... (she said its broccoli) i put my thumb on it & push it around a lil then i just looked at her like "i'm suppose to eat this??". Shes crazy if she thinks im gonna eat a tree... I threw it down for Bubba to eat but he didnt want it either. Mommy gets mad when i give bubba food but i think it is soooo funny! I throw a piece, then laugh real loud, mommy says no & then i do it again & again! Lol. She eventually laughs too cause im just cute like that but she tries to hide it so i dont see it. She dont fool me! ;-)

I'm also drinking mommy & daddys milk sometimes now too. The other day when we went to the store mommy got me the chocolate kind too! Its pretty good! Its really good w/ poptarts! Me & mommy both love the brown sugar & cinnamon kind. We like other kinds too but thats our favorite.

Ok well i just thought i'd do a little update.

Car Wash Time!

Helped mommy wash the cars yesterday... well ok i just rode along as we drove through.  I wasnt to sure about it & kept straighting & wiggling my toes ready to jump at anytime.  Those brush things are loud & the water sprayers too! 

We made it through w/ mommys car & then vaccum it.  Mommy thought id be scared of the vaccum but i thought it was funny.  A long hose making all that noise.  Mommy just moved me around from one seat to another until we got it all done.

Then we came home & got daddys truck & went & did it all over again!  This time mommy let me get up front w/ her before we went though.  I didnt mind it as much that time cause i knew mommy would protect me but i did squeeze her fingers pretty tight a couple times.  :-) 

Then daddy decided to burn the wood pile so when we went out today the ashes had blown on mommys car.  :-(  So we had to go wash it AGAIN!  This time she just sprayed it off & dried it.  The last time she did that my cousins were w/ us & the sprayer scared me.  I was screamin & Lacey kept knockin on the window tryin to tell mommy but she thought she was playin so every time she knocked mommy would spray again... she told mommy when she got done & mommy felt bad but i was ok after mommy got me.  Silly mommy!

Ice Cream w/ Daddy!

Last Friday Daddy surprised me and picked me up early from daycare so we could hang out.  He wanted to take me out for ice cream.  Oh course we had to stop by mommy's work first so i could show off to all the ladies there and visit w/ mommy. (really just to let mommy know that daddy already got me so she didn't have to)  Then daddy & me went to Dairy Queen and got us a "Nutter Butter" Blizard! Yum Yum Yum!!  I'm so spoiled.

Last week when mommy was off we got out & about a couple days and just had a good time together.  I love hangin w/ mommy and i can tell she loves spending the day w/ ME! :-)  One day we went to White Castle for lunch and i pigged out!  Their chicken rings are pretty darn good! This eating "real" food thing is kinda nice.  I was mommy's little buddy, but then again, i'm ALWAYS mommy's little buddy!  Where ever she goes, I must also go.  I'm a momma's boy and i love my mommy!

Crawl? / Walk?

Can't make up my mind if i want to crawl or walk... so i'm crawlking!!  Lol. I get on my hands & one knee & one foot & i go!  Hehe!  Hey i get around now so thats all that matters to me.  Daddy says "hes doing the funny crawl" again and mommy just laughs!  :-)  Oh & I found the cat food today!  Mommy took it away before i got to try it though.  I'm sure i'll get another chance!

1 Year Old!

Well i made it through my 1st year!  Mommy & Daddy still can’t believe i’m one already.  I got to have 2, yep that’s right, two birthday parties!  

 

 

One here at my house on the 6th and another in mommy’s hometown at Chuck-E-Cheese on the 13th.  I had  a great time at both and got lots of cool new toys! 

Mommy & Daddy got me my own pickup truck! It’s Blue w/ a yellow top! :-)   Mommy even made me a KY license plate for it to match the one on daddy’s truck. 

 

Oh and I loved all the lights and stuff at  Chuck-E-Cheese and daddy took me around to ride all the rides in there, i had so much fun!  Daddy is my bestest buddy! 

 

 

 

My party theme was Thomas the train.  Mommy made “train ticket” invitations for me (which i liked looking at and playing with) and she made me a Train cake for my first party. My Aunt Michelle made my cake for my 2nd party and i loved it!  Even got me a little train from it.  Mommy says she is so talented.  

A lot has happened in the last few months… i got my 2nd tooth a week after my 1st and just the other day my 3rd one came through.  Now my 4th has come though and mommy says another is on its way.  These teeth sure do come in handy when eating! :-) I like biting into things and i’ve been eating a lot of new things lately.  I get to try out the big kid food at lunch at daycare now.  Some days i don’t like it and i just eat my baby food that mommy sends but some days i love it! 

I love when mommy makes cinnamon rolls for breakfast! They are my favorite breakfast food! When we went to Mamaw’s i went to eat w/ her and papaw and had me some shrimp and rice and liked it too!  Yesterday my cousins were over and mommy got us pizza and was

 

 

 

 

tearing mine into lil pieces when i reached and grabbed the whole slice from her and went to town on it!  It was stuffed crust so of course i ate the crust first… (hey that’s how the commercial shows to do it!) Mommy laughed at me! Said i’m growing up way to fast!

I got my 1st Haircut too! (July 31st)  Mommy says it made me go from looking like a baby to a big boy instantly!  I didn’t mind the clipper thing that they used but i was ready for a nap and wished they would just leave me alone so i could go to sleep.  They did pretty good though considering.  Daddy had to touch up a spot on the side when we got home while mommy held me still cause i wouldn’t let them finish that one little section.  

I loved playing out in the pool this summer!  Splashin’ is my new middle name… (according to mommy) I love the water! I floated around in my lil float in the bigger pool w/ mommy and than other times i sat and played in my little pool while mommy “got some sun” beside me.  I bet next summer will be even better!!

Well mommy says it’s bedtime so until next time…

Nighty Nite!

Love,
Baby Jax

My 1st Tooth!!

Where to begin... oh yeah, I've got A tooth!!  :-)  Yep, i finally got 1 tooth coming through on the bottom.  Mommy didn't think i was ever gonna get any.  And i can feel it there so all day today i've been sucking my bottom lip in w/ my top one.  Mommy laughs at me cause it makes me make such a funny face.  It's new though, i can't help myself. 

Been a busy boy these last few months.  I've finally learned to sit up all by myself.  Was a little wobbly at first but i do pretty good now.  My hair is even starting to grow back in the back now since i'm not laying on it all the time.  I don't mind cause i can't see it but mommy is happy about that.  I bet daddy is too. :-)

I've also moved up to a "big boy" car seat!  I love it.  There's a whole other world out there that i get to see now since i'm not laying down.  And i get to sit up front in the cart at stores now too!  I look around and try to talk to people as we go by.  Mommy likes not havin to carry that car seat around cause she said it make it feel like i was 30lbs heavier in it.  Guess the only bad thing about it is that if i fall alseep on the way home she can't just carry it and wait til i wake up, she actually has to get me out of it and most of the time i wake up.  But oh well, when i'm awake, it's Play Time!! :-)

Last weekend daddy hung up my swing outside and mommy pushed me for awhile while daddy mowed the yard.  I love to swing!  Today mommy put me in my indoor swing but she hadn't put the new batteries in it yet but i figured out how to make it swing myself! ;-)  I started rockin and noticed that it made it swing so i kept doing it.  I'm one smart cookie! hehe (so mommy says) 

I'm still a picky eater... don't like things w/ texture, they gag me.  Mommy says i'm gonna have bad gag reflexes.  However... i do like tasting (licking, not eating) all kinds of things.  I'm always tasting something new.  I do like pancakes! Just not very much at a time.  Me and daddy took mommy out for breakfast on Mother's Day and they gave me some.  I think i just like the sweet syrup though. ;-) I have gotten better at other foods, i don't have to have my veggies chased by fruit anymore.  I just eat it & go on! Mommy says i got to eat 'em so i can grow up big and strong!

I've been told i have a temper... i guess they are talking about the mad fits i throw when i don't get my way.  I can't help it that i'm spoiled rotten... i didn't spoil myself!  I even turn red sometimes when i'm mad or excited.  And i'm gonna miss my paci if they ever take it away cause i use it a lot to bang on things to make noise or else i bit on it when i'm mad.  Mommy don't know but i can see her laughin when i do it. She just thinks i'm funny.  We are good entertainment for each other. 

As for daddy, i just love him! I used to be all about mommy but now i get mad when daddy leaves me too.  :( I want both mommy & daddy in my sight at ALL times!  I've recently noticed that my daddy has wiskers on his chin... i try to get them and he acts like he's gonna bite my fingers.  He's so funny!  I like to touch things.  I usually go for people's nose first... well besides mommy's earrings! ;-0  I also like to pull mommy's hair.  Especially when it's curly! She's not to happy about that but it's fun for ME!  Daddy got me a Thomas the Train set a few weeks ago and i love watchin it go around the track.  Did have it set up in the living room but once mommy got my room cleaned up (all my outgrown clothes in boxes out of there) she fixed it up for me in there.  I sit in my room and play w/ all my toys and watch my baby cartoons!  I got it made!!  I like trains and i saw my first real one the other day on our way to work/daycare.  I got so excited!  My cousin's left me their Mickey Mouse train and i've started playin w/ it lately.  Today Daddy was pushin me around on it.  I still don't know how to drive it myself.  I had fun though!

I can't wait until this summer... i love playin in the water and mommy says i'll get to play outside in it! Tonight i splashed water all over the bathroom AND mommy! hehe  She laughed though so it's all good!  When i'm outside though, i'll get to splash even More!  Mommy said she's gonna have to start givin me a bath in "her" tub so when i splash at least the water will stay in the tub.

You get the picture... i'm growin up and full of myself! My last Dr. visit i weighed 18.5lbs and i'm 29in.  I'm 9 months old now and a lot of my 6-9mth pants are still loose in the waist.  But some of them are getting to short.  Good thing it's starting to warm up so i can wear the 6-9mth shorts and not have to worry bout them being to short on me! I am starting to wear some of my 12mth shirst though.  Guess i'm just tall and skinny!

Now on to more serious stuff... Tomorrow mommy & daddy are taking me to see a pediatric surgen at UK in Lexington.  Almost 2 weeks ago a knot came up on my upper back kinda over my spine.  Mommy took me to the Dr. and he sent us for xrays but those were fine so it's not something in the bone.  I can't see it and it don't bother me none but mommy needs to know what it is.  They hope it's nothing and it could be nothing but we want to make sure.  It just came up all of a sudden and hasn't gone away yet.  They say it's not any bigger but it's not any smaller either. (You can see it in the picture of my splashin above...)

Well, that's it for now.  Got a busy day tomorrow so we need to get our sleep.

Nighty Night,

Baby Jax!

I'm spoiled rotten!

Been a little bit since i last blogged but hey... i'm a busy boy!  But i'm a happy good busy boy! (so everyone says)  Been eating some new and interesting things lately.  At first i wasn't to big on my veggies but i started chasing them with fruit (I LOVE MY FRUITS) and now i'll eat my veggies pretty good as long as every other bite is something good! hehe!  I've started drinking juice sometimes now too and i love it as well.  Not to big on the sippy cup yet so mommy puts it in a small bottle and i take it from there.  I love being able to feed myself my bottle.  I take it out to talk and then put it right back just like i'm a big boy. :-)  From the looks of this picture you'd think i was spoon feeding myself too... not sure how food got on my forehead.

My hair is thinning out a lot too... mommy still thinks i'm handsome though even with my bald spot in the back! Now that i'm learning to sit up though maybe it will finally start growing back.  Hope so or i'm gonna have to start wearing a ball cap like my daddy does.  

Speaking of sitting up... mommy and daddy are trying to help me learn to sit up but i'd rather play instead so when they sit me up on the bed i kick my foot out and make myself fall backwards.  I giggle and then we do it again and again and again... grownups are so easy to train! Ha!  We do a game for rolling over too.  The roll me over and i giggle so they roll me back over and i giggle again, you get the picture. :-)  Daddy thinks i'll be 15 before i can walk! lol  Puttin' off sittin sure gives of lots of play time practicing though and we all love play time so it's a win win!  Mommy gets so tickled at me.  We have so much fun together! 

Today after mommy picked me up we went to the store and got me a new bath seat.  I've pretty much out grown my little baby tub.  This seat you get to sit down in the real tub and i loved it!  I kicked and splashed and played with my little rubber ducky.  Grandma & Danny came to see me the other week and brought me the ducks.  I've got several ducks now & Mommy says i'll have even more fun when i start sitting better and can play with them all and then she'll get me all kinds of other toys to play with in there too.  I can't wait!!  And i think Bubba (the silly cat) got a little jealous... he loves water but mommy wouldn't let him join me.  But as soon as i got out we looked and he was drinkin the water.  Mommy says he's gonna be a bad influence on me. lol  I already try to lick the water off my shoulder.  And i've realized that rain is water also... the other morning it was raining and as we went to the car i stuck my tounge out and tried to catch as much as i could.  Mommy says that night when we got home i was sleeping and i did it again. (in my sleep!)  I'm just a silly monkey though! 

 I now also like to read!  Whenever we go to the store i get the receipt after we check out to show the door greeter.  It's usually not to readable once i get done with it though.  I like to make it crinkle! hehe Everyday when mommy picks me up from daycare they give her a sheet of paper that says when and what i ate that day and other stuff and well mommy hands it to me and i carry it to the car for her and then all the way home i read it to her and tell her what all it says.  Once i get to the end of it, (i read it several times to make sure she got it all) then i throw it over in the seat and move on to something else.  In the mornings we sing along to the radio.  She thinks i'm silly but it makes the car ride so much more fun.  I even try to hit the high notes! lol  She cracks up everytime!  Especially the mornings when the suns out and i got my shades on.  I'm one cool dude then.  I walk into daycare (well mommy carries me in but it sounds better if i say i walked in...) and everyone is like look at that cool little dude in his shades!  And i grin the biggest grin!  Yeah i'm a little full of myself but hey if ya got it...........

Well i guess that about somes it up for now...

 Nighty Night!!

Love,
Baby Jax
