Silly Guy

What a ham! When I get the camera out...this is what I get now. He either cheeses big for me, or comes straight for me/the camera. He is just getting to be so old...I just love him so much!

Who's Here...Bye Bye?

When someone comes to the house we always say "who's here?" to Treigh. He immediatley walks to the window and looks out to see who it is.


From the other side...this is how I am greeted most days when I get home from work...isn't he precious. He also looks out the window when you leave too. This was when grandma was leaving...I had to step out and snap a pic!

Having Fun

Here's me and daddy just wrestling on the floor...I think he is a pretty funny guy!

Cheesin' it up for mommy...I almost look cross-eyed...but I'm really not!

Playin' Ball

Here I am playing ball with mommy. I haven't been feeling well for the past couple of days. Daddy took me to see Dr. Janis today and I have to take an antibiotic and continue with my breathing treatments. Hopefully I will keep feeling better an better. (I think at the end of this clip mommy caught me coughing...it's yucky!)

Love to all,

Daddy and Me

Daddy's schedule is opposite of mommy's...he's off from Christmas Eve until early March. So, I have been hanging out every day with him. We have so much fun. We shoot the rock, play baseball, mow, etc...you know, all the boy things!

Here we are "shooting the rock." So far, I have only made it once on my own.

Treigh is now in full-out walk mode and keeping us busy. He still only has two teeth, however he is working very hard on the others right now...poor guy! He absolutely loves to play with any kind of ball...take your pick...he has approximately thirty...I AM NOT joking!

Hello!

Hello to all...
I wasn't very good over Christmas break posting pics and info, so I thought I would catch everyone up on Treigh's happenings.
The newest and most exciting occured on the day after Christmas. Treigh took five continuous steps toward me. He has since continued his efforts and does this several times a day. He is a typical boy...if he wanted to he could just take off walking, but chooses not to all of the time.
He has 2 bottom teeth now and uses them to eat anything and everything possible...especially food that Rich and I are eating. His favorite are the Gerber flavored star-shaped puffs...his preferred flavor is...anything shaped like a star...lol!
His vocabulary is building everyday. He says mama, dada, ball...all the time, bat, bath, bye-bye(and waves), and no. He however has just recently started to respond in the appropriate way when he is told no!!! Of course he minds me better than Rich...need I say more?
He "shoots the rock" with his basketball, and passes it back and forth to us. When we prompt him to "dribble" he starts hitting the top of his ball. I know most of you think I am probably crazy when I tell you this...however, might I remind you what type of sports fan his father is...
Probably the cutest and sweetest thing lately is that he gives kisses now. Obviously they are very wet, but it is the thought that counts.
He continues to amaze me daily...he is the most precious thing in the world to Rich and me and we do not know what we would do without him. We thank the Lord every day for giving him to us!
Below are couple of the latest snaps...

Brushing my teeth...one of my favorite things to do at bath time!

Brush em, Brush em, Brush em!

I don't know why mommy thought she has to show the world a pic of me crying...I just love the bath and I do have to admit I have been known to shed a few tears when she makes me get out. The mear mention of me being "done" makes my little lower lip just start a shivering. You can't blame a guy for wanting to be clean!!!

This is daddy and I practicing hitting using my new tee. Daddy thougth the bat that came with it was too short and stubby, so we use my EPSN bat...much more suited for a pro!

Mommy caught me in my pjs again...just taking a few laps with my push-behind!

Happy New Year!

We partied hard at our house last night...

We decided to stay home this year and just have dinner here. We fixed steak etc. for dinner and my mom came over to join us...she was a bit upset because in the original plan she was supposed to watch Treigh for the evening. We had a nice evening together. Rich and I actually stayed up to watch the ball drop...shocking!

Merry Christmas!

CHRISTMAS EVE NIGHT
When mommy was little Santa always brought her pj's on his way through town while she and grandma were at Christmas Eve service...he would come back later while she was alseep and bring her presents. Mommy was so excited when Santa decided to do the same for me.

My nice new plaid pj's just for Christmas!

Milk and cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer!

Here daddy is reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas" to me.

The untouched goods...


There were so many presents I just didn't know what to do...

Here daddy is trying to show me how to ride "Homer"

Hello Mom!

This is my push-behind toy...this was my absolute favorite toy of the day! I go everywhere with this thing...it is so great!

CHRISTMAS EVENING

On Christmas day/evening we went to Grandma's house for dinner and presents...presents...presents! Below are just a few of the big ones...

This is my new bouncing zebra...that I might add I can get on and off of myself...mommy was very impressed!

This is my ride-along Clifford.

Grandma got me this very nice rocking chair...it actually matches my high chair. She got it way back in the fall when we went to Brown County to get my high chair...she must have snuck it in the car without me realizing...

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve we went to Aunt Lu and Grandpa's house for lunch and present exchange.






Just opening presents with daddy...hangin out with mom and dad...grandpa and dad...grandma...and as daddy calls them, the three amigos, Katy, Kyle, and Cory!
