Pictures of Adam - Time to try and catch up

So I've been a bit of a slacker... Scott uses the computer a lot for work, at least that is my excuse. For this post I'm gonna follow the pictures. We will see how long that takes, maybe I'll even get to tell you a little about how we are doing! Starting with the most recent!

Oct 27 Out to dinner with parents and grandparents! Mommy thinks I'm cute when someone holds my bottle up.... I remind her of a goat drinking a bottle at a petting zoo.

Oct 24. I fell asleep with my bottle watching Sunday football. Mom says my uncles would so that every week when she was growing up and she loved it cause it meant she got a chance to watch TV besides football... but now she chooses football!

Oct 21. Halloween picture from Grandma Pete, I got a book, movie, candy, PJs and much more! My favorite is the box it all came in I love my Grandma!

Oct 18. Mommy thinks it cute that I always suck my fingers like this, just like my cousin Jared. The thumb isn't good enough for more... I just want to say I love you in sign language

Oct 14. I am starting to grow out of my car seat. I can still use it in the car, but I don't like taking a nap in it anymore. Mom misses when she could put me in it and put the cover over me and I would just fall asleep. Now if the cover is on I cry and try to peek my way out.

Oct 13. My first ride in a shopping cart and not in my car seat! I'm getting so big!

Oct 13. playing in my room! I love my fire truck. Now I use it to walk around the living room!

Oct 12. I had tons of fun helping mom open her birthday presents. Boxes are so fun to play with.

Oct 11. I'll help with the laundry Mom! I can eat, I mean fold clothes!

Oct 10. Happy Birthday Mom! Dad and I brought you your presents to open in bed and I want to help!

This looks yummy mommy! I'll help you eat it

Open the present

Oct 6. My rocking horse from Grandma! I'm getting big enough to play with my toys

Oct 6. Playing with cousins. Mom was watching Landon and Tanner and Tanner and I kept getting out bottles mixed up to mommy had to keep a close eye on us. The best was when we were both eating at the same time, with legs up in the air!

I have gotten better and better at standing up by myself. Here I used my Bumbo to pull myself up and then stood up and stayed up all by myself.

Oct 4. So mom left me in the living room for a few minutes and when she came back this is what she found. I just sat there looking out the window!

Oct 1.

Sept 30. Mom was trying to get a picture of me standing when I still wasn't very steady on my feet so she had to be quick! I'll gotten alot better in the last month.

Sept 28...My first time helping with the dishes... I do that a lot now.

Sept 24. Smiley boy!

Sept 23. I came home from Relief Society and found this. It is rare for Adam to stay still for very long so this was a special moment of Adam cuddling with Daddy!

Sept 23. I like my train.

Sept 22. I can hold my own bottle.

So on Sept 22 Scott got in an accident on his way to work. Everyone was OK, but our car was totaled. Since then we have bought a Hyundai Elentra and we love it so far. This is our car...

This is the other car... my question... how is that the same accident? We were just happy to have good insurance and that everyone was OK.

Sept 17. Using my swing to stand up.

Sept 16. Playing in my room.

Sept 15. The family after our dinner celebrating Michelle's life!

Sept 15. Riding in my stroller! I'm a big boy and can sit up in it!

Ok so Adam is now 7 months and 4 days old. He can stand up all by himself and will walk with something attached. He loves to use his fire truck to go across the living room and will use his bumbo to walk around the kitchen. He isn't too sure about trying to take steps without holding onto stuff, but he is getting close to trying. He has found out how to open the bottom drawer in the kitchen and he loves to play with the towels that I keep in there. He is still a bit on the small side. I am about to put away his 0-3 month clothes, he could still wear most of them, but they are summer clothes. He can also kind of fit into the 6-9 months close, they are just a little big:) He loves to crawl and follow Mom and Dad down the hall and into whatever room they go into. He has the biggest laugh! It is great to tickle him and make him laugh. He is a great little eater and lets you know when its time to eat! I have been making most of our own baby food since it is so much cheaper and way easier than I ever thought possible. He still doesn't have any teeth but I'm sure those will come. I can't believe how fast this year has gone by. We love our little boy and are grateful for every minute, well almost, with him. We aren't sure what we did before he joined our family!
