Miscellaneous Drew Fun

Drew sat in his highchair for the first time the other night. He's been sitting up on his own (surrounded by pillows) for a few days, so I decided it was time for the big boy chair! He really likes it. Likes being up high where all the action is.

"It's okay Lillie" Drew's cousin, Lillie, came over last weekend. Drew was trying to console her:-)

Ride 'em cowboy! Drew LOVES his pup! Poor Gracie.

Sick Little Boy

Poor Drew has gotten his first cold:-( He is not feeling well and it breaks our hearts. His little nose is so runny and he has a sad, little cough. I took his temp this afternoon and he has a low grade fever. He's been pretty blah all day long. I laid him on our bed with his softest blanket and let him watch his Baby Einstein DVD. Normally, he is a ball of energy...always moving, always talking, always squirming, but today he was so quiet and just wanted to snuggle. Aunt Miriam came for supper and that boosted his spirits for a while, but come 7:00 he hit a wall!!! So, now he is in bed, dressed in his warmest jammies and tucked in with his softest blanket. Poor baby:-(

Six Months Old Today!

Our little guy is six months old today. He wanted to take a picture with his puppy. He LOVES Gracie. Laughs at her all the time. Gracie likes him back:-)

Can I have this?

It's a happy, happy day!

Fall Baby. It was chilly out, so he needed his jacket. Don't you just want to snuggle with him????

Where did we go?

I just wanted to take some time to let everyone know that we are alive and well. I have totally dropped the ball on this whole blogging thing and picture posting...I've heard from a few to "update your site!" So, here goes the update.
The biggest news is that tomorrow we will be parents of a SIX MONTH OLD! Holy cow, where does the time go. I guess time flies when you are sleep deprived. Ha! I can't believe it's been 1/2 a year....lets see 6 months ago tomorrow mom and I were shopping in Target and I started to feel a little weird. Then we went on to BJs and as I was looking for cards, my first contraction hit...with a bang no less. Of course, in a hurry to get home, we decided to check out at the self-check-outs thinking that would be fast. I'm in labor, so time is an issue. Well, of course I would pick the one that was totally malfunctioning. And of course on the drive back to the house I would have to get behind some little man driving a moped down a two lane road during the busiest time of the day. If I wasn't a nice, Christan gal, I just may have ran him over! Then, about 4 hours later, Drew was born at 8:02! He's been in a hurry ever since!!!
We sure do love our little guy. He makes us laugh everyday and pull our hair out every night...hahah!!! I'll post some pics tomorrow...I promise. He loves being outside these days(cries whenever we come in), so I think we'll do an outdoor, fall, 6 month photo shoot.
Anyway, Andy and I are doing good. Andy is working, working, working like a mad man and trying to shake a nasty cold. I am doing the mommy thing and that keeps me busy. I hope all of you are doing well!

Pickin' Punkins

A little creative liberty with the photography

Two chicks stopped by and volunteered to take a pic of us

Drew and Katie riding on the train. Drew had fun I think.

More of the train.

"I found my punkin!"
