Springtime Fun

Wes provides hours of entertainment for Chad and me as he learns new things everyday. He's been to birthday parties with big inflatable jumping rooms and slides. He LOVES cake, but doesn't like to ask for it politely. Cake is about the only time he has used a fork without asking for help. The camera is the mini-TV where he can watch the baby, so we can no longer take videos and pictures without having to see the baby immediately. I also recently learned Weston is a fan of the Wiggles. We can watch it on Netflix, so he stands at the computer room door and says, "Wiggle, Wiggle!" Chad's not too excited about that, but who doesn't like a little "hot potato, hot potato!"
Our new patio is finished, so anyone is invited over for dinner!

Happy Birthday, Grandma Sue and Grandma Jan!

In response to the harassing phone calls from my mom, I decided to post pictures and videos of Weston on her birthday. Mom, it was my plan all along. Happy birthday! Love you!

Weston's Favorite Playthings

It looks like Wes is going to take after his dad in looks and habits. He loves to talk on the phone and hit a ball around. For those of you who think the cell phone talking is me, check our phone bill. Not even close.

Weston's one and now feeding Mom!

Walking Weston

Wes has started walking and running. He mostly tries to run and then nose dives on the carpet. He hasn't hit anything big yet, but we're waiting. His birthday is in 1 1/2 weeks and I can hardly believe it. He uses sippy cups, loves to read books, and throws fits when I move him away from the dog food. Definitely a big boy.

10 1/2 months old

Weston is has become much more interactive with us lately. He throws fits in Wal-Mart, tells me "no" when I stop reading stories to him, and tries to steal the camera.

We learned recently that Wes doesn't like bubble baths. He whines through the whole thing and tries to get me to pick him up. I'm not sure what he doesn't like, but I think it's the fact that he can't see what's under the bubbles!
