Pumpkin Patch

Andrew is on the move!

Andrew has been a lot more adventurous lately, ever since Taylor's dad taught him how to climb the stairs. We were visiting Taylor's parents and Tay and I left Andrew with grandpa for an hour. We came back and he has been a stair climber ever since. Andrew loves being mobile and exploring the house. He is pulling himself up, standing in his crib, and cruising around holding on to the furniture.

10 Months!

This month has been a big month for Andrew. He cut his 2 middle top teeth, so he now has four teeth. On Thursday he crawled forward on his hands and knees for the first time. He is becoming more and more mobile and more and more curious. Look out world here comes Andrew! He likes to explore everything. He also figured out how to tip the sippy cup up and drink out of it on his own. He is becoming such a big boy and we are loving every minute of it. Andrew is such a joy and it is so fun watching him learn new things everyday.


We got to go to Black Butte Oregon for Labor Day weekend with Taylor's parents. Andrew loved the pool. He loves the water and is quite the little swimmer.

We went to the zoo with grandma and Andrew loved the Walrus's because they would swim right up to the glass. He would wait for them to come and then get so excited each time.


Andrew wants to be just like his daddy when he grows up. Andrew was hanging out in daddy's office sitting in daddy's chair and in the second picture he is wearing Daddy's hat.

Ang Turned 27

Angela turned 27 on the 23rd and we celebrated her birthday by taking an overnight trip to Black Butte Ranch in Sisters, OR. We left Andrew overnight for the first time with Taylor's parents. He did great and had so much fun. Andrew is so blessed to have such amazing grandparents on both sides. And we were blessed to get away and spend some time together.

9 Months In and 9 Months Out

Andrew turned 9 months on the 22nd. We cannot believe it has been 9 months already. We know he's not even 1 yet but it seems like he is growing up so fast. He is loving life, smiling all the time and at everyone. He has two teeth, sits up and plays by himself, babbles all the time and is still working on learning to crawl. He acts like he wants to skip crawling and walk first, but he are hoping he crawls first. He is still scooting backwards but now he also turns and does circles. So he can pretty much get where he wants to go by going backwards.
