Happy Early Birthday Cason

One of Cason's gifts came in the mail today and of course we thought he needed it early...

My Oh My!

This was Cason and I one year ago today---boy oh boy I was huge!!!  37 1/2 weeks pregnant :)

Birthday coming up...

I can't believe Cason will be one in 15 days! Wow, this year has flown by----it has been so wonderful and we feel so blessed to have such a precious baby boy!

We went shopping for birthday presents the other day and this is what Scott would like to get Cason---ha!

He has been one busy little boy lately. He's been walking for a month now and he is into everything!!!    It amazes me how much energy he has. He doesn't want to sit still for a second---you can forget cuddle time!

Birthday Shirt

We took some photos of Cason in his cute little birthday shirt this weekend. The bluebonnets were pretty but they sure stirred up Cason's allergies. He has had a runny nose and cough every since we left the bluebonnet field. Any time he gets a runny nose, an ear infection usually accompanies it---so we took him to the doc on Saturday and of course he did have one. Poor thing has a ear infection, runny nose, and he is cutting two teeth--I feel so bad for him. We did get some cute photos of him....

"Arms Up"---Touchdown!

He thought the bluebonnets looked tasty

Trying to eat grass

Scott thinks he is making a longhorn sign although he is really just pointing...LOL

Happy Birthday Kaegan!

Our nephew Kaegan turned 8 this past weekend and they came to Dallas to celebrate. Kaegan even got to ride on a stick horse around Joe's Crab Shack---so cute!

A nice dinner of strawberries, cucumbers, carrot bread and turkey. Yum, Yum :)

Teeth :)

Cason cut another tooth last week----he cut his canine (I think that is the correct name???) teeth before his top middle ones---so weird!!! But the pain is not over yet because he is working on those top middle teeth as well. Two down, two to go--for now.

Here is a pic Erin sent me from My Gym today---thanks Erin!
He loves going to My Gym and he is one strong little boy :)

Play date at the park and teething...

Surprise, surprise---I found a tooth when Cason got up this morning. So far only one cut through the gums but I can visibly see 3 more about to pop through at any moment. Poor little thing has been having a rough week---hopefully this will pass soon. 

On a side note, Cason met his girlfriends at the park today for lunch and some play time :)

Blanket time...

Swinging with Madi...

Cute little Lucy...

Walking around with a cute pink toy...sorry dad :(

Zoo

Somehow I forgot to post that we visited the Dallas Zoo last week and Lindsey and baby Walker joined us for the fun. The animals were not real active and therefore weren't all that great at catching the kids' attention but we still had a great time!

All the kiddos...

The boys...

The girls...

Cason was glad to have another boy around :)

My Gym

We visited another kid gym today and the babies all had fun. Of course, Cason had to be the only one to throw a tantrum.  He got really mad when I took a hula hoop away from him. He is in a stage right now where he throws a BIG fit if you take something away that he wants. I think the fact that he is teething is part of his fit throwing but in no way can I blame it all on teething.

He is still walking up a storm and even getting better at making turns without falling. He loves to walk with toys or books in his hands and of course that makes me very nervous. We have definitely stepped up our baby proofing in the last couple of weeks.

He is eating more and more table food and wanting milk less and less. I wish he had more than two teeth so that he would be able to eat even more. A few table foods that he likes to eat right now are turkey and cheese wraps, spinach and cheese quesadillas, deli meat, LOVES peas, carrots, waffles, pancakes, toast, cheese, yogurt, bananas, mandarin oranges, crackers, sweet potatoes, and squash.

Here are a few pictures from today...

I hope these balls were clean---LOL
