snuggled up with gram and bla bla

out to dinner with unk b - it's past my bedtime

seemingly frustrated with pops - perhaps it's because he didn't have enough work for me to do

laughing and playing with auntie te te

a visit at uncle steve's

it was a fantastic trip, lots of time to spend with family and i got to meet a lot of mommy's friends - best of all i went for a few walks in the snow and wore my snowsuit, probably for the last time.

nine months!

here i am at nine months - covered in squash and with quite an attitude. and trying hard to figure out how to move where i want when i want. it's tough being a baby...

and a video to share - i have a lot to say about being nine months old, big milestone!

first valentine's day

for my first valentine's day, mommy and i got up to make breakfast for daddy and then we opened fun valentine's bags. i got new bath toys that i love and some fancy bibs. as usual, the most fun was all the tissue paper mommy put in the bag for me to rip up and try to swallow.
that evening, we went out to dinner at the mellow mushroom, which is mommy and daddy's standing valentine's tradition. here i am figuring out what to order.

feels like spring!

back in nashville, the weather warmed up and mommy, daddy and i spent a nice hour in the backyard checking out bark, plants, birds, and the blue sky

trip to granny's in the aftermath of a winter storm

a couple weeks ago, mommy and i braved a winter ice and snow storm to drive north and visit granny... gram and pops came down to see us and it was a cozy weekend with family playing, eating, and a quick venture out into the snow.
pops taught me about the virtues of working from anywhere

ashley, erica and conrad took me sledding - i didn't last long but it was an experience!

mommy tried so hard to get a good picture of stacy and me but i just couldn't stop blinking - darn that multi-flash.
