We have a New Blog!

Ok, so apparently I like videos too much. They take up lots and lots of space, and we haven't confirmed it, but it seems like we've filled our capacity on this blog for all the the many videos we post. But I just can't stop posting them, because there is just too much family that needs to see how cute this little man of ours is. And I can't bring myself to delete any posts just yet. So I have solved this problem by starting a new blog. It is one number off of this blog.

We hope that you all can find it, and enjoy it just as much.

7 Months Old!!!

James has grown up so much in the last 7 months. He is quite a delightful baby, and has really funny likes. He loves paper, loves fabric (especially playing peekaboo with it over his face) and he loves looking at the world upside down. Who could have guessed :D The funniest thing is that as a tall boy he is already growing accustom to not fitting in his bed. Despite the fact that he still has room to grow in lengthwise in the bed he continues to wiggle and sleep sideways with his head squashed up against one side, and he feet sticking out the other. He loves peekaboo, any kind of food, and is getting continuously more protective of his toys. Don't take one away from him if you don't want a meltdown. He loves remotes, cell phones and if we let him keyboards. He can now sit up all on his own, but isn't interested in crawling. Not yet at least, for now he can usually get what he wants with all his babbling chatter, who needs to crawl when you have a willing Mom at your beck and call. :D Hope you like these as much as I do. :D
I couldn't resist putting this picture on even though it is out of focus. It has the best smile :D


I spiked his hair just for the fun of it. Cory thinks I'm crazy because I have so far refused to do so.




If you look closely in these next two James is showing off his two bottom teeth!

Hair Cut

Usually I just post pix of James, but I thought I would share my drastic change to my own appearance yesterday. Cory was nice enough to let me go out and cut my hair yesterday while he was home watching James. Last week with all the air pollution in the valley was a rough week on James and I since we didn't go out much. We were blessed to be able to see Nana and Pupa and Aunt Tracie for the weekend though, and we enjoyed that very much. But since not much else is changing for a few months I needed something new and chopped off my long hair. I'm still getting used to it, since I haven't ever cut my hair this short, but I like it a lot (despite my serious face in the pic :D ).

The Pirate Baby!

This is James' new way of expressing himself. All day today James was pretending to be a pirate (or at least that is what it looked like to us) and apparently baby pirates really like apples. Who knew.

SnowMan on New Year's

We spent a little of our New Year's Day building a snowman for James. He liked it, but I'm sure he will love it more in the future. We also finally got a family picture, and you can see that James smiles better for the camera when I'm behind it smiling at him. Without anyone there he doesn't quite get it. :D Enjoy!

New Skills and funny moments

We really enjoy the funny little things James does. Here are a few that are pretty cute.

X-mas Pictures

As previously mentioned we had a wonderful Christmas, and here are some little highlights from our trip.
