Exciting Spring!

Hello! I've had a very exciting spring so far. I've started to eat baby food, and I love it! I make a big mess, but I have a lot of fun doing it. I'm not proud of it, but I do yell at mom if she doesn't get it in my gaping mouth fast enough! You know, behavioral conditioning. She'll learn eventually if I'm consistent with her.



Here's a shot my Aunt Beanie took at Easter that mom wanted to share:

Here I am drinking out of my sippy cup for the first time. When I say "drinking," I mean chewing on the top and occasionally getting something out of it.



Here I am playing with my Daddy. We wrestle and snuggle...it's one of my favorite things to do! Sometimes I get a little excited and accidentally scratch during the match. Watch out for my raptor claws.


I don't know if you heard, but my Daddy started playing in a full-contact flag football league. It's no joke. I had a good time with my Aunt Wubby and Beanie (and Mommy) at the game. I got all dressed up in my Redskins outfit (my Chris Cooley jersey), but they didn't sub me in. We won our first game, and Mommy said we were all winners because no one had to go to the ER.

My favorite toy right now is my mini football!

With my Aunt Wubby at the game:

Can you believe that I leave this hat on?

Me and Daddy after the game:




I played my first game of golf on my 6 month birthday (4-20-10). It was a gorgeous day at Old Trail! The first time I saw my Daddy take a swing with my driver I laughed out loud -- twice! Uncle Steve heard me and I thought he was going to fall on the ground laughing.

Here I am with Uncle Steve and Daddy:
Here I am on the course. Yes, I'm sitting up by myself now! I occasionally tip over (Daddy said something about a big melon), but I'm getting very good at it.

You're away. (The two worst words in golf.)
Me and Mommy in the cart. I loved driving around...the wind made me catch my breath! I've got Uncle Steve's golf club here, and I'm contemplating showing him and my Daddy how it's done.
Tomorrow we go for my 6 month check-up. Unfortunately, we get more shots, but I'll get to show off my fantastic guns again for my nurses. :) See you soon!
