IM ONE!!!

After a lot of slacking on mommies part, and a lot of complaints- I am finally updating the blog! Drew is such a lucky little boy and got to have 2 birthday parties- One in California and one at home! He is very loved by a lot of people. He is going up and down the stairs, cruising, walking with support and saying about 10 words. He is just the love of our lives!

7 months old!

I am such a big boy now! I have my two bottom teeth and I eat everything that mom puts in front of me! I love to play ball, look at books and swing. I am saying "mama" "dada" and "baba". At Coletons b-day party... All the big boys got to be pirates and I wanted to be one too!

The zoo

Look at how brave Coleton is... He loved touching the sharks... I just sat in the stroller!

This is the whole crew. My favorite thing was going to the dophin show. When the music started, I stared bopping around and would laugh when the dolphins jumped in the air!

Happy fourth of july

Happy 4th. I had so much fun with all my friends in Evansville. There were so many kids that mom couldn't get a picture of everone together so heres some of my friends! My new buddy... Shepard Rowe. His daddy went to Purdue with mom and dad and his mom is best friends with my mom.

Drew, Shepard and Cooper Gaudin. Shepard is younger than me so I picked on him a little bit.

The Many Faces Of Drew

This is my everyday happy face My "flared nostril mommy face"

My "Ladies man face"

My "sassaroo face"

Swimming with my cousins

Drew, Coleton and Josie getting ready to go swimming!! I LOVED the pool..... I splashed the whole time

I think Im trying to eat the raft here!

I showed up for swimming and Coleton and I had on the same outfit!!! I want to be just like him

Hanging with my cousins

Our mommies thought it would be "cute" to see us all in the bathtub together. It was fun! Drying off after the pool and once again Aubrey is picking on me and pulling my ear

My Aunt Stacy's sprinkler pool is perfect for me! I got mad when the water squirted me, though

Aubrey still picking on me and taking my hat- I can't get away from her now that she is crawling

Im not so sure about this whole cold water pool thing. It took me a while to get used to it

My first trip to California

My first trip to visit my Grandma and Grandpa Yates was wonderful! I slept almost all of the flight the whole way there and back! Also, I was allowed to stay up as late as I wanted which was usually around 9:00!!! It was so wonderful to finally meet my Grandpa and Uncles Scott and Sean and my cool Aunt Lauren. I got just a little spoiled while I was there!

Fun Pics of Me at 5 Months

Splish Splash!!! I look forward to making a mess with my dinner than taking a bath! I cried when my Mom took me out of the swing.... She put me right back in!!! Hee Hee

I go to "school" two days a week and my mom gets me all dressed up!

I started sitting up on my own at exactly five months. It is great because I entertain myself

5 Months

Wow! Where has the time gone! Drew is now 5 months old and at his appointment he weighed 14lbs 4 oz. What a big boy! He is now eating rice cereal and just started on veggies which he doesn't really like. He sits really well with the boppy behind him and is almost flipping onto his belly. He is sleeping for 12 hours a night and now holds his own bottle all the time. I got to experience my first Mothers Day today and my husband and little boy made it so special for me. I can't even explain how wonderful it is to be a mom to Drew and how much happiness he has brought us. It is the hardest job in the world but 100 times better than I ever thought it would be. Happy mothers day to all the mommies and enjoy this special day!

Happy Mothers Day

Look what Dad and I made for my mom on Mothers Day! We did a good job!

My Papa

I spent 4 days with my mommy at Nana and Papa's house. I loved being held by them and I slept a lot with my Papa. I didn't sleep too well in the pack and play so mommy let me sleep with her at night! (hee hee, I tricked her!).
