Pumpkin Patch!!

We visited the local pumpkin patch today with Marley, Ashley and Grammy Linda! Bryce was not to sure about the pumpkins, but he did love the straw and grass!

We were trying to pose him at their picture area, but he just wanted to play with the straw!
Not sure about that pumpkin!
We are warming up to them!

He is done with those darn pumpkins... give him some dirt!

11 Months Old!!

This boy is growing up way too fast! I know that I say that every month, but it is so true! He is standing on his own very well. He is trying to take his first steps, but when he tries to step out, he falls. So I'm sure it wont be much longer! I am excited but scared at the same time!

He now refuses to eat with a spoon or let anyone else feed him. He HAS to feed himself... which is limiting our options, but we are learning!! Any ideas anyone? Oh such an independent boy!

So here are just some pictures from recently! Enjoy!



It was a beautiful day out so I opened the dining room windows and he could stand there looking outside for hours! He loves it!
He has finally caught Pumpkin. I am not sure how Pumpkin feels about this, but she just lays there while he tortures her. I do intervene, but this one time I had to get a picture!

Such a handsome 11 month old! He has the same problem that I do... he closes his eyes for most pictures... Sorry Bryce.

Big man holding daddys hand!

Our unofficial photo shoot!

Cartoons were on behind me... I was blocking "Special Agent Oso". He was not happy.

Taking a break!!

He has discovered door knobs.

Standing alone!

What a big boy!

Giving the baby in the mirror kisses!

He loves that baby in the mirror!

Getting himself a snack.

This is his new jungle gym... the end table.

And he is learning to climb...

I am way in over my head!! But I love every second of it!!!!!!

Tons of Pictures and Flu Update!

So I am working on editing our pictures! I think I am getting the hang of it, but finding time to do it while chasing around a 10 month old is a little hard!

We have been SUPER busy around here! 2 weeks ago we were in Shreveport, LA for Tims brother Jeff and Ashley's wedding. Then we came home for a couple of days for work, then off to Harlingen for my cousin Erin and Emmett's wedding!

The Sunday night that we came home from that, Bryce started to not feel good, Monday he would not eat or drink and was definitely sick, I got him to the pediatricians office first thing Tuesday morning and they thought it might be strep. So they tested him for that and just in case did the swab for Influenza A and B. The lab was a little backed up because the office was packed. I got home and they called saying that he DID test positive for Influenza A and that they called in Tamiflu to our pharmacy and if he doesn't eat or drink soon, to get him back in for an IV to get him hydrated. Luckily Wednesday night he started to get slowly better and today is almost back to himself! It is no fun having a baby with the flu! It is so scary! But God was watching out for him!

We are going to enjoy staying at home this weekend!

This is a picture of us at Erins wedding!

On our way to Shreveport, we saw a sign for El Toro, which is of course what we call Bryce sometimes! "The Bull"
This is the face of determination!
This is what I am up against... He is crazy!
