So many pictures, so little time

It's been a while since I've uploaded any pictures. In that time Drew's been to visit both sets of grandparents and has really mastered walking around. So - here are a few of my favorite photos from the last month:

Drew playing in the cupboard with his cousin James. We spent the weekend at Nonnie and Paw Paw's house (John's parents), and the boys had a wonderful time playing together.


There is a little park across the street from their new house, so we all went to play. Drew went down the slide a few times with Daddy, then by himself! I love that he still sticks out his tongue when he's concentrating.

After all that play time, Drew took a bubble bath.

Last weekend we went to Amarillo to visit my family. Here is Drew with his cousin Ryan from California. The boys are only 2 months apart and had a great time playing with each other.

"The spaghetti was good, Mom. Do you want a kiss?"

One tooth, two teeth, five teeth

Never one to do things the easy way, Drew just cut three teeth - at the same time. Poor kiddo. Please forgive my lack of blogging the last couple of weeks, but I'm sure you can imagine that things have been hectic.

We had a great visit to Oklahoma City to visit John's family. They were delighted to see how much Drew has grown. He loved playing with his cousin James, and I have some adorable pictures of James (who is 9 months older) sitting on a Mickey Mouse truck while Drew pushes him around the room. They were quite a pair!

Drew continues to figure out this walking thing. He now walks all the way across the room or down the hall on his own. He's just figured out how to get onto his feet from sitting (without using a wall or furniture to pull up on). He is now trying to run, but hasn't mastered that yet. I have a feeling that once he takes off, he's going to be hard to stop!

On the tooth front, two of his three new teeth (all on the top) have made their way through the skin and the third one is starting to appear. We haven't seen any more bottom teeth coming in, so hopefully there will be a respite before more of this teething fun.

We're heading to Amarillo this weekend to visit my family, including my Aunt Lainie, cousin Melissa, and her son Ryan. Those two are about 2 months apart, so they should have a great time together. Hope you enjoy your Labor Day!
