Got Milk??

This was Landry's first time to try cow's milk. I think he was expecting water because that is what he is used to getting in the sippy cup. Pretty funny reaction.

Growing Up

Landry is growing up too fast. He is definitely keeping us on our toes. He is a great walker now and has pretty much stopped crawling completely. I think he figured out that he is much faster on his feet. Once he got the walking thing down he decided that he wanted to be a climber and he has no fear. His newest adventure is to climb on top of our coffee table. Somehow he figured out how to prop his knee up on the table and then pull himself on top of it. Scary! He smiles alot and it is not hard to make him laugh. We can't believe he is almost one. It will be here before we know it. We are very blessed to have a happy and healthy almost one year old.

The Family..He likes to smile but not for the camera.
He loves this dog and his thumb. This is his way of saying he is tired and ready for a nap.
This boy had a lot of hair before we decided to cut it off. We decide to use the clippers with a guard and give him a little boy haircut. I was very sad right after, but it grew on me.

The new haircut. It has already grown out alot since this picture.
His new favorite game. He flips this walking toy upside down and tries to fit toys that are too big under the lid. Once he finally gets something to balance on top of the toy he claps for himself.

He also plays car mechanic.

10 Months Old Already!!

Landry has been learning a lot of new tricks lately. About 2 weeks ago he decided to try walking. He would take a couple of steps here and there. Now, he takes anywhere from 2 to 20 steps. It all depends on how much balance he has at the time.

Here he is doing his first successful U-Turn. Daddy was there to catch him.



You can see here that sometimes he walks too fast and then trips over his own feet :)


He also learned it to clap his hands and to throw. He has not mastered the skill of throwing, but he thinks he has and that is all that matters. Daddy taught him to clap his hands after he throws, so even if he throws it backwards, he still claps his hands.

Cowboys Stadium Trip

Last Saturday, Landry got to see the new Cowboys Stadium. They opened up the stadium to season ticket holders so we went went Troy's mom and her husband. Troy's family has had season tickets since the Cotton Bowl so it is a family tradition. Troy has been to almost every home Cowboy's game since I have known him. We had alot of fun walking around the stadium.

These are their two seats. Troy wants the aisle seat.
Landry and Daddy.
One of these days he will sit there and watch a game.

This is their view.
The biggest screen I have ever seen and it was so clear.





Our Family. Landry did not want to smile.

This is Landry's stone that is outside of the stadium. He got it for Christmas.
Only Jerry would try to sell a $13 hamburger and I am sure he will sell it!!
The big monster.

Landry was practicing his quarterback moves when we got home. I guess he was inspired :)

Walking Toy

Landry finally decided to use this toy for what it was made for. It didn't take him long to figure it out and now it is his favorite toy.

Family Reunion

These pictures are from about a month ago at our family reunion for my dad's side of the family. We had alot of fun.

This was the cottage that we stayed in. They were all very pretty.


Each cottage was unique.


Morgan and Joseph both wanted to hold their baby cousin.
The golf cart was the most important part. The weekend we went was extremely hot, so it was nice to have the golf cart to get us places quicker.
Landry's first time on a golf cart. I am sure it won't be his last.

The first night we got to make smores to eat by the pool.

Landry had a lot of hairdos this weekend because all the kids loved to play with his hair.

Landry ready to get in the pool for the first time
He liked to splash in the water.

I guess it wore him out.
He took a nap under the canopy by the pool.
Once he woke up and we rested a bit, he was ready for some more pool time.

Morgan loved to push Landry around in his stroller.
And Landry loved her to push him in the swing. Morgan found a certain noise to make that would always make Landry smile or laugh, so she used that alot. It was very funny.



My sister, Mellissa, with Landry.




We have alot of pictures like this. And you will notice that Joseph is always looking at the camera and Landry is not.

The weekend was over and we were headed home. Landry fell asleep right away.
