First Christmas Part II

Snow didn't stop us from traveling across the pass to see my family. Harrington had a lot of snow so I got to try out my new sled from Grandpa Alan.

I love to dance to the music my new ride makes.

Look what Santa brought me...my very own pony! It even moves and sounds like a real pony. I like to make clicking sounds when I ride him.

Grandma Bonnie is being silly with the bow on my head.


My Aunt Jen spoiled me with all these cool bath toys. I am never going to want to get out of the tub now.

I had a great 1st Christmas. Thank you everyone for making it so special. Love you lots!!!

First Christmas Part I

I made this cute little reindeer shirt with my foot and hands at daycare with Kelly.

I had so much fun opening presents!

My Grandma Margaret and Grandpa Greg came up from California to see me just before Christmas...so we celebrated early.

I did a few art projects while we were snowed in during the holidays.

Miss You Grandma Bonnie

Well, my Grandma Bonnie left today to go back to Harrington to get ready for Christmas. I already miss her after spending almost 3 weeks together I was really getting used to being spoiled non-stop.

I did lots of fun things when my Grandma Bonnie was here. She took me to storytime at the library, we went shopping, played ball, read stories, sang songs and watch some of my favorite dvds. We had a good time!

Grandma Bonnie even took me to the dentist last week to have my first check-up. All eight of my teeth are healthy and more are on their way. Happy Teething:)

Last night my parents went to a Christmas party at the Country Club for my dad's work. I think they had a good time since they stayed out until mid-night? Thanks Grandma Bonnie for taking care of me so my parents could go out.

First Thanksgiving

My first Thanksgiving was so much fun. My Grandma Bonnie, Grandpa Alan and Aunt Jen came to my house for the weekend and Scott, Kate and Nicholas joined us for Thanksgiving dinner. I got to try some turkey and stuffing...yummy!

The day after Thanksgiving I had my picture taken with Santa but I wasn't too sure of him...a little traumatic.

Then we went shopping and I got to take a little rest at Bed Bath and Beyond just for a minute on one of the store model beds.

Stair Climbing

Wow! It has been a long time since my last blog posting. My mom has been super busy with school, parent-teacher conferences and preparing for Thanksgiving. My dad has been super busy too traveling alot so my Grandma Bonnie has been staying with us, here I am showing her how I climb the stairs.

Happy Halloween

Today I went to my friend Lily's house while my mom and dad went to work. I wasn't too sure about my costume but toughed it out wearing it off and on throughout the day. My dad picked me up early from Lily's so I went home and took a nap to get ready for trick-or-treating at my dad's work. I had a fun time!

I also went to Amber's house to see her and Carole. They had a special treat for me in the pumpkin...a bib and baby crackers...Thank You! I really enjoyed taking the candy out of the pumpkin and trying to eat it but my mom kept putting it back which I didn't like.

StoneyRidge Farm

In the Corn Maze with mom and dad. It was so muddy that we found a secret way out.

So much to look at...apples, pumpkins and scarecrows.

Looking at the animals with daddy. I liked waiving at the animals especially the horse and donkey.


I'm almost 30" tall this fall!

Thank you Grandma Bonnie, Grandpa Alan and Aunt Jen for a fun time at the pumpkin patch. Can't wait to see you at Thanksgiving!

Fun Photos

Go faster daddy!
I had so much fun with Mia last Friday. We have a lot in common we both like grilled cheese sandwiches, we both like to put things in our mouths and we were both born in January just 4 days apart.
Look out! I'm climbing everything!
Taking a break from playtime for a yummy bottle.
I also enjoy climbing the stool, it's the perfect height to put my mouth on.

Gumball Machine

Sorry this is kind of long, my mom got a little carried away. Last month my dad took a day off and stayed home with me and taught me how to put the gumballs in the top and pull the lever on the side to make the balls come out. I finally decided to cooperate and do it for my parents when they had the camera rolling.

Fall Family Photos

On Saturday, my parents and I had some family photos taken by Faith Photography at Bloedel Donovan Park near our house. It was a beautiful day and there were lots of dogs at the park to watch! I'll have my mom post more pictures this is just a sample Laura emailed us tonight.

9 Months Old

I am 9 months old today! Here I am a week ago playing in the leaves near Barkley...I love fall! Everything is much more fun now that I am getting older. My favorite things to do are click my tongue, play chase and peek-a-boo, pull myself up, clap, scoot around, play with toys and look at books!

Harrington Fall Festival

Just catching up on some reading on the long car ride to Harrington.


Look there's my mom and her class riding in the Fall Festival Parade for their 10 year class reunion. After the parade I enjoyed the festivities at the park, took a long nap at Grandma and Grandpa Stone's then headed back to the park for the raffle drawing and my dad won $100 prize. It was a quick trip but well worth it to see friends and family!

Learning to Stand

Earlier this week I decided to start pulling myself up onto my leapfrog table. I kind of scared my mom and dad when they turned around and saw me up all on my own.

This toy is so much more fun now that I can stand and play.

8 Months

So much has happened in the past three weeks. My mom went back to work and I started going to my new nanny's house, which has worked out well. I have mastered sitting up on my own and I have 5 teeth and working on my 6th tooth.


My dad really wanted a flat screen for my playroom so we can watch football together on the weekends....Go Broncos!


I have mostly been army crawling for the last month and a half and every now and again will get my belly off the ground.


I have mastered sitting up on my own from my tummy, which is really fun because my mom and dad make a big deal out of it....they're silly!


My Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Alan came over to babysit me on Grandparents Weekend. We had a blast...they took me shopping and bought me new toys and a Baby Einstein DVD which has a really funny part that makes me laugh every time. We even went on a walk at Whatcom Falls.


Monkeying around in my Halloween Costume.

Baby Nicholas

Last Monday, little Nicholas was born so my mom and dad took me over to his parent's house to meet him for the first time. As you can see his big brother Ben is so excited to have a baby brother!
Proud dads! This is my dad's good friend Scott with his son, Nicholas.

Lynden Park Fun

A couple of weeks ago my mom took me to the Lynden Park to meet up with Mia and Carson. The other Carson took a little snooze in his stroller while I tried to hold and kiss Mia's hand. I've always been a ladies man!

Harrington Harvest

Getting dirty in the wheat field on my Grandparent Stone's Farm.


Helping Grandpa Alan drive the combine.


Hanging out with Aunt Jen during harvest.


Those combine wheels are BIG!


Standing with Grandpa Alan in front of Stone Farms wheat truck. This was the first time in 14 years that my mom did not drive wheat truck.



You can see the entire town of Harrington behind us. I had a great time with my Grandpa Alan and Grandma Bonnie...thanks for taking care of me so my mom could go shopping:)


I love my Auntie Great and her puppy Tiff.


Took the ol' Harley out for a ride...Just kidding! (my aunt jen has a hand on me from behind the bike.)
