Becoming a Daddy...12/19/2008

It's Happy Birthday time!! I am sure you know how to party it up since Mommy says you are the reason I have a bottle 'thing'.  Thanks for being a pretty awesome Uncle, even though I haven't been able to spend the night in awhile since the new kid came to town :-) It's okay though, I'll forgive you.  You've had a pretty big year last year...Uncle in April, a Daddy in December. Let's not have a repeat huh? ;)  Mommy said that Conner can come to a sleep over soon with me, so you get Auntie Jamie a weekend away and give us a call. I can promise I WILL show him his toes and that special bottles are fun to grab on when people are drinking. Thanks for showing me the ropes. 

Happy Birthday to you Uncle B. 

I love you,

Hold Man

9 MONTHS OLD!

Wow, time sure does fly by fast. I am now 3 months away from being one years old and not a baby anymore.  I went to the house of pain on Monday but it was totally cool, NO SHOTS :-)

I am learning, growing, and developing a funny personality too!

I like to FLIRT with all the girls, sorry guys you have to work for it

I pretend I'm shy just to get you to laugh

I love when Daddy comes home from work

I am a ham for the camera

I love to drag out all my toys on one level and play with them

I can army crawl like no other!

I can stand unassisted for a few seconds before I have to grab back on to the coffee table

Waving bye-bye

learning to sign "Please"

Clap yay and patty cake

still no other words, but babble a LOT in the crib (doc says 2 or 3 words by 1 year)

I LOVE going to NCSU games (see you at the big game Saturday Hoot) :-)

I have lots of "dates" with mommy's friends. They all LOVE me and it's mutual! 

now onto my favorite...FOOD!

I got the okay to start yogurt (YO BABY) and yo baby...it's good!!!

I sorta like pasta, wish it had something yummy on it though

baby cheetos are awe-some!

blueberry muffins (sans blueberries) are super duper - thanks daddy!

I can gum anything since I am still one cool GUMMY BABY...nope no teeth yet :)

chugging my milk like a champ 

I have tasted ice cream and am wondering why I have never had this awesome stuff before

grilled cheese and any bread are my FAVORITE!

yes...I still eat "baby" food. Stage 2 and 3 but I get big people food mixed in

Alright, you've gotten the latest 411 on me, now it's time for you to leave!

(hehe, kinda like "Crib's Baby Edition"

Come back now...ya hear!

Love,

HDC

Yay!

Check out my new talent...that's right folks I can clap! Just say Yay really loud and I start clapping :-) It is usually followed after they make me wave bye-bye even if we aren't going anywhere. So it's finally Friday which I've heard everyone say of the longest week EVER! I have no clue because I played like normal and partied like normal and have been practicing bye-bye, clapping and the sign for please, which Mommy figured out is not good with food on my hands!

Anyhoo...today is also my daddy's last day at NCSU. We are excited that he gets a new job and it has better benefits for me (whatever that means). He starts his new job on Monday!

Yay Daddy -I'm clapping for you (hehe)

(you see I am in the high chair for these pictures...pretty much the only time I sit still now, so they capture me and make me do stuff)

Alright y'all have a GREAT Friday

BYE-BYE,

Holden

Let it SNOW

Well I had another first today! This stuff came out of the sky that everyone was calling snow. It was pretty awesome. I only got to go out for a little bit since I still have a cold but I sure had fun! I may have tried to eat some :-) no worries it was not yellow!  

me trying to eat the snow :-)

Hope everyone has an awesome snow day! 

Lots of love ~

Party with Conner

Happy ONE month old little buddy! I can't wait to play with you.

Tips:

All adults talk funny, Funny faces too!, Dogs like to lick you, it doesn't end, it is fun to be held, try screaming it works for me :), toys are the greatest, i'll let you borrow some of mine, sleepovers with Mema & Gramps are FUN, we'll have to try it together sometime (ha!)

Well that's all for now, hope you are having fun partying it up! Drink lots of milk and stay up 'til midnight! It's your special day..

MY Mommy & Daddy send kisses and hugs, ME - well I just want to pat you on your head!

peace out little buddy ~ Your FAVORITE Cuz

p.s. being a baby is super cool ~ you get a special day once a month for a WHOLE year!

Holy...

CHUNKY MONKEY BATMAN!

Went to the house of pain today (no shots!) but I am feeling a little under the weather these days and mommy wanted to take me to make sure no ear infection, etc...so 20 bucks later and all smiles for the nurses and doctor I just have a really bad cold :-) Gotta love me!

Anyhooo....back to my chunky monkey status...I now weigh in at 19 pounds!!

That's a whole lotta me!

Flirty eyes ;-)

Happy Friday to you, I'm off to nap and feel pitiful again since we are home. Here's a picture of me to get you through the looong weekend! Daddy's off on Monday!

Snotty nose lovin'
