Baby Steps - 9 months

Logan and Will

Will is a Vanessa's 1st Birthday party (that's his girlfriend)

Well, I have a few things to update you on. Will is 9 months now. I don't know how much he weighs because we haven't been to the dr yet. But, in moms measurement- he's heavy! He just got another tooth on tuesday so that makes 4- 2top and 2bottom. He is starting to figure out how to take steps. Last week he started with one. Last night he was taking 3 1/2 little ones before plopping on his bum. I have a feeling he'll be running before next month. I caught him in the bathroom this morning playing with the toilet paper. I think every kid has a picture or two of them unrolling the toilet paper so now we've reached that milestone. I tend to think that there will be much more of that in the future. This time was rather mild. We did go visit Crystal, Ben and Logan a few weeks ago. Logan and Will are cute to watch together. Will wanted to borrow Logan's paci (which was attached to him) and pull on his bib. Logan wasn't real thrilled with that. I think this trip was more for Crystal and me than the boys. Oh well, we got some cute pictures. Of course the last picture is not of Will but I thought Sidney looked so cute so I had to include it. She had just been to the groomers and was shaved. They put a bandana around her neck and I just modified it a little.

My Visit with Mammaw and Grandmom

Yeaaaaa look who's here- Mammaw and Grandmom
It sure have missed you Mammaw.
Here they go with the picture taking already.
Chhhhheeeeese

I love you Mammaw!
Dad, take one of Grandmom and me.
I'm so glad you came to visit with me Grandmom
My wonderful family- 4 generations

We all had a very nice visit over the weekend with Mammaw and Grandmom. We sure did miss Pappaw and wish he could have come too. We hated to see them go and can't wait until we can see everyone again. Thanks for my new summer clothes and the money for my piggy bank!

Easter

Will had a nice first Easter. As you can see, he enjoyed eating potato's for the first time. At first he just smeared them around his tray. Then he realized he could eat them. He also had ham and vegetable's (baby food) like his mom and dad. We didn't take him to see the Easter Bunny. Although, we did see one walking outside of the Carter's store but we just starred from behind the glass. Maybe next year.

My visit with Gramps and Grams

Yeaaaaaa Grams and Gramps....so good to see you!!

Gramps and me in our PJ'sWanna play?
I like it when you tote me around Gramps.
Pucker up. Here comes a kiss!
Love you Grams and Gramps! 3 generations of handsome men.

Will had such a wonderful weekend with his grandparents. Gramps loves to walk with him just as much as Will loves to be held. It's a mutually beneficial relationship. You can tell they sure are proud of their grandson. Will brought the Tarheels some mojo because he wore his UNC gear and they beat Duke. (sorry mammaw) We all hated to see them go on Sunday and can't wait to see them again soon.

Will at 8 months

Just me being cute
Hey, who turned off the lights?


Has anyone seen my basketball?

Happy Birthday Grandma


Will Sandwich

Well, Will is 8 months old now. He had a tooth come in up top earlier in the week. We've caught him standing on his own several times. No more than 5 or 6 seconds but nonetheless he's starting to let go. The whole family has been sick with a cold this week. Will had a few rough nights and lost his appetite. He didn't even want his milk-so you know he was sick. We are looking forward to seeing Grams and Gramps this weekend. Then we get to see Mammaw and Pappaw in 2 weeks. So I guess it's safe to say that Will is going to be spoiled in the month of March!
