You talkin' to me???

Yes, that's a pasta pinky ring...and I put it on all by myself. We don't do Gerber around here.

Does that amuse you? Make you laugh?

That's right, nothing goes better with pasta ringlets than a nice bottle of Pinot Grigio...with a pear finish.

I am 8 months old TODAY!

This weekend I had a lot of fun! In addition to turning 8 months old, my buddies Hans Owen and Ellie came over to play and we had a lot of fun. See... here we are hanging out.

Ellie was checking us out. She wanted to get in with us but it was a BOYS ONLY playtime!

Aren't we so cute!!!

Working in the sun and fun of Florida

Gammy and Gampy had asked if daddy could drive a bobcat. I have no idea what a bobcat is but working outside is the best and I have missed being outside in the sun. Pass the SPF 50...

I was also able to work on my wrenching skills!

Me and my Cousin, Ryan. Finally we meet...

I was so excited to meet my cousin, Ryan. I had heard a lot about him and I already wear a lot of his cloths! He was born in April 2006. And, his mommy and my mommy are about the same age apart as me and Ryan, pretty cool, huh? I think so! He lives out where there are lots of cool things like horses and cows and doggies and orange trees in FL where Gammy, Gampy and Uncle Josh live and I LOVE IT down there...

We enjoyed opening his Birthday present together. He got the same fun tool set that I did from Gammy! It is so fun and we had matching hats to wear. Don't we look like cousins?!? Check out our baby blues and our matching orange hats!

He is such a helpful little guy too, he helped me keep my hat on!

He got a cool rocking horse too, and we were able to play on it together. My gammy keeps talking about a pony for us to share and I think this rocking horse is a ton of fun so why not have a real pony... what ever is a pony anyway...

The warden threw a party in the county jail.

The prison band was there and they began to wail... Elvis's Jailhouse Rock

Ok, I was not really in jail at all. I was visiting Gammy and Gampy and they have these three huge horse-doggies. To keep some boundaries, mommy used the doggy gates for me and the doggies. I LOVED IT!!!!

See, I can even stand up! It's my greatest, newest trick. I really love to pull myself up.

I cannot wait until I can figure out how to run! The doggies will have a great friend in me when I can run because they love to run and jump and play. But they are still a bit too big for me... someday soon, though, I will be running with them!

One singular sensation every little step he takes...

One thrilling combination
Every move that he makes.

One smile and suddenly nobody else will do;
You know you'll never be lonely with you know who.
One moment in his presence
And you can forget the rest.

For the guy is second best
To none,
Son.
Ooooh! Sigh! Give him your attention.
Do...I...really have to mention?
He's the One?
