My Newfound Voice

Just last week, I really discovered my voice, and how high pitched it can really get! Ever since then, I have been a squealing, squeaking, shrieking machine!

Fall Time

Here is my new toy Mommy bought for me at a craft sale. With help from my cousin Jack, I named it Blueberry Poptart. I like it alot, I think because of the the big eyes that look at me.

Daddy is making me giggle by making funny noises. He is so silly!

Last weekend I was at Grandpas house just hanging out. Me and Grandpa were having a very important conversation here.

Of course with my festive outfit on, Mom and Shelly and Grandma couldn't resist a photo shoot in Grandmas backyard. It was a beautiful, but cold, fall day!

Another cute smile for you to enjoy!!!

5 Months Old!!

Today I am 5 months old! I have grown so much in the last 5 months! It is fun to be alive- thank goodness I was born in the USA (as my shirt says, from my Grandpa R). I now get to eat more than just boring old milk. Mom has made me applesauce from scratch from Grandma and Grandpa G's apples. All natural! I also like the sweet potatoes and carrots I have tried too. Bring on the peas!! I am not yet rolling over, but I do push up and can support myself with my arms. My body is just so heavy though- it might be awhile until I can push myself over. I am sleeping about 10-11 hours each night. Mom loves that. And I take great naps too. Overall, Mom and Dad think I am the perfect 5 month old baby ever made!!!

He he... you don't know what this mischievous look is about, but I do!!!!

Mini Comas

Mom was a bit concerned about me today. I had a 3 hour morning nap and then had a 3 hour nap in the afternoon too! I must have been growing a lot today! I need to give my New York friend, Eleanor, some pointers on taking naps. Her mom would really appreciate it I bet, since Eleanor never naps!

A Few Firsts

Here is a huge Pumpkin that Grandpa and Grandma Gerard grew for me! It is 101 pounds! We are going to carve it this week.

This is me eating baby food for the first time. It is sweet potatoes, and I like it. It sure gets messy, though.

And I also got my first haircut today! Mommy cut it for me, and this is a photo of my new hairdo.

Weekend Visit

Last weekend we went to visit my grandmas and grandpas. Here are a few pictures from the Gerard's. It was Grandpa Gerards Birthday, so we got cake!

I got to see snow for the first time! It was cool. Too bad I didn't bring any skis. Here is a big Pumpkin that grandma and grandpa grew.

Monday Night Football

Last Monday we went to my Mom's cousins house to watch the Viking-Packers game. It was pretty fun- I got to hang out with my second cousin Landon. Even though we were in Wisconsin, we were all cheering for the Vikings, and they won the game!!
Football fan already??!! I am pretty mesmerized with the game on the huge TV.

Watch where you put your hand dude!

Mommy says the best part of being there was the new little puppy they had!! It was super cute. But luckily Mom didn't forget about me with the distraction of a cuddly soft puppy.

Mom with all the best things in hand- baby (the very best), puppy, and a cider beer (yum!).
