Climbing...

So, while my parents were here visiting, Bo figured out how to climb up into our den chair. It is lower to the ground than most chairs making it more accessible to little people. I think he has now staked his claim on the chair, going from chewing on it to sitting, standing and drooling in it. Must be a male thing. : ) He has taken a few tumbles out of the chair, despite me teaching him how to get down feet first. But my thought is that he'll eventually learn what not to do. Learn by experience, right?


Sitting in my chair with a nice cold sippy cup of milk. What could be better?


Sometimes standing is better.


Maybe going down this way will be easier.


Or maybe I should just nosedive right off the front. That would feel awesome.

GOOOOOO Georgia Bulldogs!

Here's how these pictures came about. First, I found the overalls at a consignment sale in Memphis. This is kind of unheard of since almost everyone in Memphis cheers for Tennessee, Auburn, LSU, Alabama, etc. So I grabbed them thinking, "They do look kind of rednecky (and I can say that b/c I'm from SC and know what rednecky really is), but I can't pass them up. And I think Robert will approve (which is always the final question when purchasing anything). Second, you are probably thinking, "Why does the kid have on overalls when it's blazing hot in Houston??" Well, my friends, this week is VBS week for our church (more on that later). When I picked up Bo from his class, the teacher told me to put him in pants or a sweater the next day because the room was quite cold. I thought, "I don't even know if we have any pants that fit him. We are in Houston now...what do we need long pants for?!?!" So, into the closet we went and found the overalls. And I must say they are well worth the pictures. On a side note, if you look closely, the overalls are a bit tight in the front because Bo's stomach is so big...already looking like a typical Georgia fan, beer gut and all. Hope you enjoy!

Time flies...

When you're having fun!! Lots has gone on since the last post. Bo had his one-year check-up...a little late, but it's done. He weighs 27 lbs. (75th percentile) and is 31 inches tall (90th percentile)!! What a load! I definitely feel sorry for the moms whose kids weigh in the 100th percentile! Anyways, Bo is healthy, to say the least, and has picked up a few words...mama, daddy, cracker and tickle.

My parents came to Houston for a visit. It was alot of fun! We shopped, ate barbeque, watched movies, ate authentic mexican food, shopped some more, ate more barbeque, went to Galveston for the day (to shop and eat seafood and see the beach!), and took lots of pictures. Here are a few.


Bo and G.G. reading the Peek-a-Who? book.
