My new ride

Sneak Peek!

Shooting hoops with Mama

My build a Monkey from Uncle Jare

my NCSU tricycle

Christmas started on the weekend before with Daddy's Grandparents, then on Christmas Eve we went to Wilson to see Mema & Gramps. Christmas morning we woke up to see what Santa brought and Gigi and Hootie and Uncle Jare came over. We then went to my Mommy's Grandparents...let's just say I now have a playroom and Daddy's "man room" is his-tory! :-) Don't worry I'll let him come play too...

Thanks for all the gifts and love ~
HDC

Merry Christmas!

My first Christmas ~ 2008

Merry Christmas
from my family to yours!

Lots of Love,
Holden Davis

Cousins

this is me checking out Baby Conner in the nursery. All I wanted to do was "scope" him out and check out the babes in the nursery!

Meeting Conner for the first time. I was spoiled and just hung out with Aunt Jamie on the bed most of the morning.

We had a busy weekend! Baby Conner came before his induction and we were in Target with Aunt Jamie when she was having contractions! That sure was fun. We later met them in Wilson at the hospital to wait for Conner to come on out to play!

Saturday was Christmas with Great Grandma Hare, all of her EIGHT kids were there plus tons more! It was fun but loud :-) The adults played dirty Santa while I ate the wrapping paper! SCORE!!

Sunday was Christmas in Fountain with Great Grandma Cobb. I got a new leap frog well frog of course and some fun rings to play with and I also got to hang out with my second cousins Ty and Jameson.

Mommy is going to upload some more pictures later...lets just say I've seen the flash A LOT lately and I am sure Conner has too (but he better get used to it, after almost 8 months on the outside, it hasn't stopped!)

Only 3 days until Christmas!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT KELLY!!!!!!

I hope you have a very Happy Birthday Aunt Kelly!! Thanks for being such a Great Aunt! :-)

Love you,
Holden

For unto us a child is born

Conner Bryce McIntosh

December 19, 2008

8 pounds, 8 ounces
20 inches
1:58 am

"A baby will make love stronger, days longer, nights shorter, bankroll smaller,home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for"

Isn't he just the cutest thing?!

Aunt Jamie, Uncle Brandon & Cousin Conner are all doing well and will be home soon.

We cannot wait to love on our new nephew and Holden can't wait to show Conner the ropes (i.e. eating toes and such ~ Uncle B!!).

Love,

Jason, Shannon & Holden

yummmmmm!

Teething biscuits are sooo good, not as good as Bojangles of course, but they do the trick. Can you guess if I had to have a bath after this? :-)

Wanna kiss? (hehe)

Have a great week everybody!

I can do this now...

peace out mama...things to do, bottles to drink

What?

Come sit by me :-)

Taste of freedom!

Wanna know how to make your parents freak out?
Start hanging onto furniture and climbing out of chairs and 7 1/2 months old :-0

Here's what I think is great:
giving high five
eating stars (I can do it all by myself now)
squealing when someone does something funny
blowing raspberries and banging on my high chair if they feed me too slow
blowing raspberries when I want out of my crib when nap is over
playing blocks & knocking them over
sitting on the floor and playing

Happy Weekend,
H

you know you wanna

smile :-)

I'm a little ham and 1/2 when it comes to the camera these days and since today is Friday, what's not to smile about?

Update:

SANTA WATCH ~ Only 13 more days until Christmas

BABY MAC WATCH ~ 9 more days until Auntie Jamie's due date...but she may be in Monday for an induction (whatever the heck that is) I will surely let you know!!

Peace to the out and have a super duper weekend!!!

Holden

Seriously

Mommy made me post these because she just can't get enough of my cuteness...can you?

All the ladies love me wherever I go and cannot seem to understand why my eyes are soooo blue and my eyelashes so long...sorry ladies, I can't help that I am this adorable.

*please disregard the mess on my face, I'm a boy and that's all I am gonna say*

Enjoy yourself,

Little Heartbreaker

Happy Birthday Uncle Jare!!!!!

Today is my Uncle Jare's 13th Birthday! He is the same age my Mommy was when he was born...neat huh? So we are all 13 years apart give or take a few months!!

Uncle Jare was the first to hold me, after Mommy & Daddy of course

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday dear Uncle Jare Jare

Happy Birthday to you!!!!!!!!!!

XOXO,
Holden

O' Christmas Tree

"Oh what fun"

This ornament was fun and super big!

This is the closest Max my doggie would get to me....I am not sure why, I love on him (grab his fur) give him treats (try to eat them for myself) and I am always quiet (screaming and laughing)

This one jingles! It is a whole lot of fun to grab and try to eat :-)

Have a great week!
HDC

P.S. We are still waiting on Baby Mac but we have gotten his Christmas present already! Can't wait to give it to him

Sneaky Sneaky

Okay, It's Friday! Oh yeah, time for the weekend when we are never home :-) I am finally feeling better, sleeping awesome and we even made it out of the house today and it wasn't for a doctor's appointment. Go us! Weekend is looking busy and we are all impatiently waiting for Baby Mac to arrive aka my new cousin. Auntie Jamie has been out of work since Tuesday because she started having contractions and we were looking forward to a baby...no such luck! That little boy is S.t.u.b.b.o.r.n. Not sure who he gets it from...UNCLE B!!! So hopefully for her sake we will be in Wilson going to visit the hospital if not I'm sure I will be at some mall, store, whatever looking for Christmas presents.

Me...I am sending my note to the Big Guy in the RED suit :-)

Look for Santa pictures and Christmas card pictures soon.

Happy Weekend Everybody!
Santa's newest elf

fa la la la...blah

On the first day of Christmas my doctor gave to me....some nasty eye drops because I have conjunctivitis aka pink eye and a bad cough & cold!

My first case of the sickies and I do not feel good at all! Hopefully I will not keep the 'rents up all night because I have been sleeping like a champ again :-) Go me!



:(
Hold

p.s. This picture is from yesterday, today both eyes are swollen and very red..and now Mommy's eyes are itching...)

Wolfpack Baby

Sunday I went to my first NC State Basketball game with Mommy, Daddy, Uncle Jare and Hootie. I had fun even though I took two naps during the game! The Wolfpack beat UNCG and I ate...banana stars!

We are the Red & White of NC State!

Much love,

Lil' Wolfpacker

Sophie T & HDC

you can't tell that it took two Mama's + one Auntie Ber to get both of us smiling!

For some reason Sophie T. did not want her picture taken with me :-) I most certainly did not try to steal her new pink toy that had wheels and I did let her play with my toys...oh well...

Girls...can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em!

I'll catch you up on all my Thanksgivings, my first NCSU basketball game, Black Friday shopping & more later on this week.

Night y'all,

Holden

Wordless Wednesday * plus some words!

Really Mommy??

UPDATE: (I am NOT naked, I have a diaper on for those who don't have little boys like me,

if I were naked everything would be yellow...duh!)

This is a preview of my Christmas card pictures!

Happy Wednesday,
Me

7 Months Old

7 Months Old!!!

Today I am 7 months old. Can you believe it?? Mommy and Daddy said the time has gone by fast.

I can do lots of things now like wiggle like a worm to get something but am trying to crawl and can roll like nobody's business!

I love to eat, milk not so much but we are still working on that one. I love to eat those banana stars that melt when you eat them and still love all foods and am in stage 2 now with some texture!

My most favorite toys are a sunshine and a tag ball and just recently started playing with my blocks that I can sit on the floor and play with. I can sit up like a champ and hardly ever fall except when I lean to the side.

As you can see in the picture I rolled over and slid down on the steps to sit up on my knees, Mommy said I am going to be TROUBLE! (hehe) Well I am off to celebrate my first Thanksgiving tomorrow...my new shirt says I'M STUFFED!

Catch you on the flip side,
H

P.S. No visit to the house of pain for a check up this month but I do have my second flu shot tomorrow...big boo!!!

Weekend Update

Try to stay with me, it was sure busy!

So I did pretty good on the car ride down to Savannah, but by the time we got there I was O-V-E-R the whole carseat gig. We finally went to eat Chick-fil-a where I gazed at some chicken tenders while eating peas and making googly faces at Alisa. I sure do like her :-) The next day we did some shopping and I did super good and we went to lunch & dinner and had lots of fun. Mommy decided to leave at 7:30 Friday night so I could sleep the whole way home, and I did and even slept until 6 the next morning. Go me!

Saturday we did some shopping and of course we watched my WOLFPACK take down the Tarheels...It was great although Uncle Brandon was more than bummed but he did get to see me so hopefully that wasn't such a bad day.

Sunday we had our first Thanksgiving with Auntie Ber & Unkie Monkey :-) I love mashed potatoes. We stopped by Babies-R-Us first and I got a high chair!! I am such a big boy in it.

Well that's all for my jammed packed loooonnnggg weekend. I'll update you on my super busy week later.

Peace & Love,
H Man

ROADTRIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...and we're off! Mommy spent yesterday packing, shopping and getting the car serviced because today we are on our way to Savannah to see Mommy's friend and my buddy Alisa :-)

I overheard Mommy say she hopes I sleep on the way down and she's leaving early (hehe, maybe I'll sleep, maybe I won't, but I will fill you in when I get back!)

So back to my story we leave today and come back Saturday morning because you know we have to watch the NCSU game and Daddy will miss us too much to stay gone any longer but he'll be working like crazy anyways so it's all good. I know I'm going to have lots of fun and this is my first trip out of good ole' NC, good thing we are staying in the South because I don't know about you but it sure is COLD outside and hats/hoodies are no fun.

The Mom lady will post lots of pictures when we get back so in the meantime...PEACE OUT!

Happy Trails to you...
Holden


P.S. Don't worry Auntie Ber we'll say hey to Paula for you and tell her you'll be back soon and next time you go I'm going to because Roadtrips are F-U-N!

Wordless Wednesday

Mama said...

"Mama said there'd be days like this, there'd be days like this my Mama said"

Mondays wear me out, how about you?

Woo Hoo...Finally Friday!

Today I am going to my Mema & Gramps' house to stay for the weekend! I am so excited and so are the 'rents. I am pretty sure they are going somewhere fun again without me. I wonder if I can "talk" Mema out of a Christmas present again. She gave me a chatterbox Elmo already and all I did was smile :-) I have sooo got everyone where I want them! My new cousin is coming soon so we can double team them all. I'll have to show him the ropes but I'm sure he will catch on quickly. Well Mommy is rushing me off, she said something about packing a ton for only a few days (I mean all I need is clothes, bibs (A TON, I like to drool), burp cloths, FOOD - remember the food lady!, milk, bottles, jumpy thing, and some toys!)

Anyways, here's a picture of me doing one of my favorite things - blowing raspberries of course!

HAPPY FRIDAY PEOPLE!
LOVE YOU LOTS ~
HOLDEN

Rub-a-dub-dub

I love the tub/water/bath! I kick all the water out of my little tub so Daddy tried my other bath contraption. It was okay except I try to go after the water, so I guess it's back in the tub for a little while until I can get my head under control. Here are some before and after pictures of why I need a bath a lot!

I sure love my food and I LOVE to "help" Mommy

Bath time is fun!

Happy Thursday Peeps!
Holden

Just Hanging Around

Not much new to report, just a picture of me for you.

Enjoy,

Baby Caiden

This is Caiden Jaxon Thomas, he is my buddy Austin's new little brother. He was just born on September 25th, so he's newer than me!

Right now he is in the hospital because he's sick (things are coming out both ends is what I heard Mommy say) and double ear infection. He is being hooked up to the same stuff I was and hopefully being able to receive antibiotics. Please pray that baby Caiden gets better real soon and that his brother Austin has a Happy 3rd Birthday Party on Saturday. I am bummed we are missing it but hopefully we can go up when everyone is better.

We miss you Mike, Holly & Austin and can't wait to meet the newest little boy to our pack!

I myself am going to the doctor today, I have some rash that is all over my head, lets hope they don't stick me!

Happy Friday ~ H

Happy Birthday Gigi

me & my Gigi at the lake

Yumm...cookie cake

Mommy & Uncle Jare (her "little" brother)

On Wednesday night we all took Gigi out to McCormick & Schmick's at Crabtree. It smelled and looked yummy, all I got was a bottle and some paper to play with. After everyone came to our house for cookie cake then it was bedtime for me.

Happy Birthday to you Gigi,
Love,
Little Man

VOTE

Did you vote today? I didn't get to go because it was raining so I stayed home with Daddy but told Mommy who I wanted to vote for, but I will sure be glad when those commercials are over -They are seriously messing with my Mickey Mouse time not to mention b.o.r.i.n.g!

So go Vote!

Your Future President
