Mom and Dad went to St. Louis without me!

Mom and Dad went to St. Louis without me this past weekend! They said they missed me, but I'm not sure. It looks like they were too busy having fun to miss me too much!

They went on a helicopter tour of St. Louis!

Here is a picture of the arch from the chopper!

Mom and Dad have a brick at Busch Stadium. It was an anniversary present to daddy the first year they were married! So, everytime they go to the stadium they take a picture with their brick.

I'm 8 months old!

Here are a few pics from the 25th! I am 8 months old now! The doctor said that I weighed 20lbs and 8 oz. today! I'm almost ready for a new car seat!

If you look carefully at my pictures you can see my teeth.

Mom took these pictures after I woke up from my nap and my hair was standing up in the back!

My visit to Silver Lake

Last Saturday I went to Silver Lake for the day. I got to see my great-grandparents, my grandparents, and the Ohrenbergs! It was a quick trip as usual, but I really wanted to see these people!




Grandpa was really excited to have me come for a visit because he bought a new wagon for me to ride in. This was the first time he got to pull me around. It was a lot of fun, but you have to remember to hold on or you can fall over and bonk your head!







I hadn't seen my great-grandparents since my cousin Elsie was born, so it was really cool that they were in Silver Lake too.



I cuddled in on Great-Grandma's shoulder...





but I wanted to get my hands on Great-Grandpa's glasses.

another quick trip to webb city

We made another quick trip to Webb City this week. Daddy dropped mommy and I off on his way to Arkansas. I had so much fun on this trip. It was so nice outside so I got to try lots of new things.

My new favorite thing to do is swing! Mamaw and Papaw put a swing up on their porch for me, and I love it!

I also got to ride on the lawnmower with Papaw (don't worry he went really slow and turned the blades off).

Aunt Heidi and Uncle Jason had us over for dinner and I got to hang out with Jalen and Ally.

Mamaw also let me play on the big kid swing set in the back yard. I LOVE TO SWING!

Mommy is posting this picture because it's a rare thing to have a picture of mommy and I together. She's usually behind the camera taking my picture.

Here is a video of me on the swing!

Mommy is way behind!

Mom is way behind on posting new pics of me, so today we are playing catch up with you!

It's officially fall and mom is putting me in new clothes all the time. We are loving the fall weather and football season!

I have new PJ's too because I keep getting too big for the ones I already own. These are my new fleece PJ's. I am wearing 18 mo. PJ's because I am too tall for any of the other ones! (Remember I'm only 7 1/2 months old)

I'm eating all kinds of new foods lately and I am starting to eat some of the same stuff as Mom and Dad. Dad fed me some of his banana the other day. He gave me little pieces to chew and eat! I love to eat!

all kinds of fun

I got to see the Goodman family on Labor Day weekend! My cousin Elsie is getting kind of big, but I still have to help her sit up for pictures!



I got to swim in the neighborhood pool at my Uncle Eric's house! I love to swim, and I really liked chillin' on my little raft!


Today, was a big day for me! I got my first tooth! Mom can't get me to sit still long enough to take a picture of it, but it's there! I also got to eat crackers in the high chair today! I loved it!


half-way gone.......



and done!

I love my dad's hats!

Dad, I really like this hat, but your cheesy potatoes look really good.



Who turned out the lights!



Dad...take my picture! I love these hats!
