As of yesterday, Christopher has decided that walking is his preferred way to get around the house. He walks from place to place, and if he falls, he crawls to the nearest piece of furniture or wall to get up again. When he needs to get somewhere fast, he will still resort to crawling. But, [...]

I haven’t written in a long time, but I have lots of pictures to share over the next few weeks! Some from his birthday party, a trip to the pumpkin patch, and soon we will have Halloween pictures, too! Christopher is doing great – growing and so much fun! He is crawling and pulling up [...]

This is a little late, but we just had Christopher’s one year pediatrician visit today. Here are his “stats”: 19lbs, 10oz 26.75 inches long developing right on track! We had a little party for him on September 13th. I will post pictures from that in the next few days. For now, I will post the [...]
Animal Lover
Posted in Christopher on August 1, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Christopher loves the dogs (and the cats), and the feeling is mutual most of the time. My dad’s dogs, Nipper and Poco, are staying with us while my dad is out of town. Nipper has always loved Christopher. When he was tiny, Nipper would “guard” the baby from the other pets, and stay close by when [...]
Crawling!!

I don’t have video yet, but I was excited to post the news (and remember the date as well). Christopher officially started crawling on all fours this week. He is getting more proficient at it by the day, and we have finished babyproofing our living room and kitchen so he can safely move around. It’s [...]
It’s been a while!

We’re doing great here – just busy! Christopher now has a tooth (we have a photograph to prove it below), and is really starting to crawl. Yesterday he actual did a traditional crawl with his tummy off of the floor – not “military-style” or rolling like he has been. We need to do some more [...]
Homemade Baby Food – For Big Boys
Posted in Christopher, Parenthood on June 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I have made some of Christopher’s baby food since he started eating solid foods. I started with plain baked or steamed fruits and veggies pureed, then moved onto combinations of those. Now that he’s a “big boy” – he has received permission from our pediatrician to eat just about anything. (The only things that are [...]
Since I Never Write in the Baby Book…
Posted in Christopher, Milestones, Parenthood on June 13, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
One reason that I keep this blog going is because it’s a great way for me to recall Christopher’s milestones and accomplishments. I am terrible about writing things down in his baby book, but I can quickly fill it in when I use the blog as a reference. So, here are the latest happenings at [...]

Christopher really loves his exersaucer now – as you can see in the video below. He’s such a happy boy – I hope you enjoy the smiles as much as I do!
Bluebonnets and a Red Hat
Posted in Christopher on April 10, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I took Christopher out to take his picture in the bluebonnets today. They are starting to fade away quickly because we haven’t had much rain, but there are still a few patches around. As you can see from the picture below, I couldn’t get his attention at all. He was more interested in trying to [...]
