Good laughs

I don't know why this was so funny, but it kept him laughing a few days later too. Now when we do it, he just smiles, but no laughing. Oh well, at least we recorded it. Please excuse the bed head.

This outfit he is wearing was from James's mom. James said it was too girlie for him to wear. But after having so many dreary days, I decided we needed a little sunshine in the room. Because Landon is so slim and so tall, when he crawls in an outfit that has more room in the midsection, his knees go right up in there and he gets all tangled up. I hope that makes sense. Of course, the ones that fit him well, are already too short and he has only been 9 months for a week! I wanted him to wear them a little longer before we get into 12 month clothes, but even most of his pajamas are not long enough anymore. We go to the Dr. tomorrow for his check up, can't wait to get the measurements.

Can't wait until Daddy comes home!

Landon gets so excited when he hears the garage door open, then a few seconds later, he hears the car pull into the garage, then he hears James close the door to the car, and then.... the door opens! Every single noise gets him more and more excited! I would try and record it, but I am too busy making sure when he is jumping around the he doesn't hurt himself. The other day (yes, I am almost caught up), he couldn't stay away from the door. He crawled over there with his ball in hand even. He pulled himself up holding onto the door molding. Now when he crawls over there, he says Dadadadadadadada.

Snow storm #2

Who would have thought uneven floors would be so much fun!

You can see the snow falling in this one, if you watch the whole thing. It is still on the ground believe it or not, for how much there still is, it could have snowed yesterday, not a week and a half ago. Three days after this snow fall (about 12 inches), we got 6 more inches. Still haven't played in it...

Toys and Drool

Two different days, same drooley baby

Landon's cousins Haley, Caitlin and Natalie so kindly gave Landon some of their toys that they don't play with anymore. We went from being able to storing his teething toys and rattles and such in a little bin to needing a much larger bin. We went to Target and got this awesome bin. It is extremely sturdy and Landon went from needing me to hold onto when he stands to using everything else. Thanks toy bin. (It was only $15) They are still selling them too, if you want to go check it out. Of course, they have pink ones for girls.

Eating fun

I love to eat, but I don't know that I have this much fun while I am eating...

I know it is mid February and I am finally finishing up Christmas posting... We had Christmas dinner and James's parents and then opened up presents. Cramped space and lots of kids equals claustrophobia.

So behind...

Okay, it has been way too long since my last post. So much has happened that I am sad that more than likely, I will forget some of the exciting things. I really hate not posting as things happen. Oh well, I am sure that life will just get busier, right? Landon started crawling right after new years. Right before he turned 8 months old. Right before he turned 9 months old a few weeks ago, he said his first word. Uh oh. I don't even know where he got that one from. He says Momma and Dadadada pretty well and knows who we are. My favorite thing that he loves to say is Whoaoaoaoaoaoaoa! So funny. The best thing about Uh oh and Whoaoaoaoaoa is the little shape of his mouth when he does it.
