Little Bear

Mommy took me to watch Daddy's soccer game at UNC one evening...I was just so happy to be walking back and forth the whole time!  I got lots of compliments on my cute outfit from Aunt GG. :)

My 2nd Halloween

I don't really remember my 1st Halloween...but here are a few pics.  I had several costume changes.

I really enjoyed dressing up this year...everyone was surprised how happy I was all night long just waddling around (even with my hood up).

Me and Barbie.

I had a great time hanging out with my aunt, uncle, and cousins.  Matthew and I passed out treats since it was raining too hard to trick-or-treat.

Showing off my tail feathers.

 

Hey it's Buzz, Woody, and Jessie!

This year I was bigger than the pumpkins. :)

First Steps!

October 26, 2011

I had been taking 2-3 steps between furniture or two people, but this was my first time across the room to mommy!

Fall Festivities

 Mommy and Aunt Maria decided it was time for us boys to have our first haircuts...I got to sit in this awesome police car and Matthew was next door in his airplane.

I did great...only took about 3 minutes and I looked incredibly handsome afterwards.

Here is mommy at her new job.  Horse and Buddy put on a special horse show for all the kids that ride there.  She got to walk with one of her kiddo's Jameson...he got a blue ribbon for sitting up so well!

Papa Tom really knows how to dress.

Our new friends invited us to go to Green Acres farm...they had pumpkins, bouncy castles, and hay rides.  We had a great time!

 We got lost in the corn maze!

Mommy and I went home for a week in October to see Gamma, Grandpa, and Uncle Kenny.  I had a busy itinerary that week.  First we went to Stuckey Farms apple orchard.  I love riding on Grandpa's shoulders!

I found one Gamma!

 

I really started doing a lot of walking while pushing toys that week.

  I had to get the mandatory pic with the lion and Uncle Kenny outside of Yen Ching.

I also went to church...fell asleep in the nursery...and Claire came to get me.  I really was happy she rescued me.

Then off to the Children's Museum!

Mom remembers playing in the water at the Playscape just like me.

Of course I had to ride on the carousel!

I have a natural way with animals...just like mommy...I loved meeting these horses!  Also great to see mommy's good friend Aunt Lisa and her new horse Waldo.

Then back home to see Daddy...we really missed him.

I did great at my first NC State football game...go Wolfpack!

Super Grover!

My 1st Birthday!

I was so excited to turn one!  Mom and dad can hardly believe I have grown from a little 6 pound peanut into this big boy.

Here's me on my birthday last year. :)

 Check out this awesome caterpillar cake!  A special shout out to the "party planning committee": Gamma, Nana, and Noni!

Mom had fun with "A very hungry caterpillar" theme!

She served all the food that the caterpillar eats in the book.

Our whole family was there...plus the Findley clan!

Love the giant caterpillar made by Grandpa and Papa Tom!

It took me a few minutes to decide I liked the cake....

My arm tastes so much better covered in frosting.

Thanks for all the great gifts everyone!

My gunky sent me this awesome radio flyer rocket all the way from California!

 

Finally my very own armchair just like Daddy.
