HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF OUR LITTLE GUY!! WE WERE JUST PLAYING AROUND. MY MOM HAS THIS UGLY WIG AT HER HOUSE, AND BLAINE LOVES IT, SO I PUT IT ON HIM. HE WASN'T QUITE SURE ABOUT IT AT FIRST....

BUT ENDED UP LOVING IT ON!!!
THIS IS JUST A PICTURE OF HIS BIG OLD TUMMY.. HE IS GETTING READY FOR BATH TIME, WHICH HE LOVES!!!
THIS IS AFTER BATH TIME. I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS CUTE.. I GO A LITTLE PICTURE CRAZY!!

A LOT OF CATCHING UP TO DO...

IT HAS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I POSTED LAST, AND A LOT HAS HAPPENED!! I WILL MAKE IT BRIEF THOUGH! HERE IS A PICTURE OF BLAINE WITH POTATOES OR SQUASH ALL OVER HIS FACE, IT WAS HIS FIRST BIG ADVENTURE EATING "REAL" FOOD! HE LOVES IT AND HE IS A PRO NOW!!





HERE IS A LITTLE VIDEO OF BLAINE, HE HAS THE CUTEST LAUGH SO I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL!!

WE WENT TO MEXICO LAST WEEKEND FOR CHRISTMAS! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN, OTHER THAN THE RAIN AND THE HURRICANE LIKE WEATHER! IT RAINED THE FIRST DAY AND THEN IT WAS REALLY WINDY THE REST OF THE TIME! BUT YOU KNOW US, IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH TO AMUSE US!! WE STILL WENT OUT ON THE BEACH AND LOOKED FOR SHELLS AND PLAYED IN THE WATER. WE SWAM IN THE POOL, AND OF COURSE ME AND MELISSA DID A LITTLE KARAOKE.... WE WENT INTO TOWN AND SHOPPED A LITTLE, THEN WE WENT TO THE "GOOP" TO FIND SOME COOL OCEAN THINGS! HERE IS A VIDEO OF WHAT WE FOUND IN TWO OF OUR SHELLS.....

YES THOSE WERE OCTOPUS WE FOUND TWO OF THEM! THEY WERE SO COOL, THEY KEPT SQUIRTING INK ALL OVER!!!

HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF THE VIEW OUT OF OUR BACK PORCH....

AND OF COURSE THE OCEAN, AND A JELLY FISH THAT FLOATED IN.....

ALL THE GIRLS GOT OUR HAIR BRAIDED, HERE IS A PICTURE OF MINE!!

LAST NIGHT I PUT BLAINE UNDER THE CHRISTMAS TREE TO LOOK AT THE LIGHTS, HE LOVES THEM AND IT KEEPS HIM ENTERTAINED FOR A WHILE, BUT HE FELL ASLEEP UNDER THERE. I THOUGHT IT WAS CUTE SO I TOOK A PICTURE!! HE IS THE BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER!!!

AND HERE IS JUST A CUTE LITTLE PICTURE OF MY BLAINER!! HE IS THE HAPPIEST LITTLE GUY EVER!!!

TAGGED!!

Six facts about me....

1. I HATE TO SHOP!! EVERY YEAR WHEN IT CAME TIME TO GO CHRISTMAS SHOPPING ME AND MY DAD WOULD STAY AT THE MOTEL AND SWIM WHILE MELISSA AND MY MOM WENT SHOPPING, THEN THEY WOULD COME BACK TO THE MOTEL AND HAVE ME TRY ON ALL MY CLOTHES....IF THEY DIDN'T FIT, THEY TOOK THEM BACK AND GOT ME NEW ONES!! I ESPECIALLY HATE GROCERY SHOPPING!! IT IS THE WORST!!

2. MY FEET ARE CLAUSTROPHOBIC...BAD!! I WEAR SANDALS ALL YEAR ROUND, AND IF I HAVE TO WEAR REAL SHOES THEY HAVE TO BE SLIP-ON'S, SO I CAN LET MY FEET BREATH!! IT IS KIND OF ANNOYING CAUSE WHEN I HAVE TO WEAR GYM SHOES OR HIKING BOOTS, I AM IN MISERY ALL DAY LONG!!! AND HAVE TO UNTIE THEM LET MY FEET OUT FOR A WHILE AND THEN PUT THEM BACK ON!!!

3. I AM SCARED OF THE DARK! ITS KINDA EMBARRASSING, BUT I AM!! I DON'T LIKE NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE WHAT IS AROUND ME!! ESPECIALLY WHEN WE ARE CAMPING! I WILL HOLD MY PEE ALL NIGHT SO I DON'T HAVE TO GO OUT AND GO PODY IN THE DARK....PLUS I AM SCARED TO DEATH OF BEARS.....

4. I CAN DO THE WORM..YOU KNOW THE DANCE MOVE! HAHA!! I AM REALLY NOT THAT GOOD AT IT, BUT I LIKE TO DO IT. MOST OF THE TIME I USUALLY END UP HURTING MY SELF, BUT I KEEP ON DOING IT.

5. I LIKE TO PUT PEANUTS IN MY DR. PEPPER, OR MY COKE! MY DAD DID IT WHEN I WAS LITTLE AND I GUESS IT KIND OF STUCK WITH ME. IT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE TREATS..THE SALT MIXED WITH THE SODA IS MM MM GOOD!!!

6. I HATE CHOCOLATE...I HAVE NEVER LIKED IT, IT GIVES ME THE WORST HEADACHES WHEN I EAT IT, AND MOST THE TIME IT DOESN'T TASTE GOOD AT ALL! THERE IS THE OCCASIONAL SNICKERS TREAT, BUT NOT VERY OFTEN!!

I WILL TAG WHO EVER WANTS TO DO IT.....

OHH HOW SAD!!!!

BLAINE IS SO FUNNY! HE IS IN THIS STAGE WHERE YOU CAN TALK HIM INTO CRYING... SOUNDS MEAN I KNOW, BUT IT IS FUNNY!! ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY TO HIM IS "OH BLAINE HOW SAD... OHHHHHH" OR " IS GRAMA BEING MEAN TO YOU?" HE GETS HIS BOTTOM LIP OUT LIKE THIS-

THEN YOU JUST HAVE TO KEEP SAYING "OHH BLAINE THAT IS SO SAD" AND IT TURNS INTO THIS SAD FACE-AND IT ENDS IN HIS HIGH PITCHED SQUEAL! HE HAS A FUNNY CRY, HE SQUEALS AND SCREAMS! HE IS SO CUTE!!OTHER THAN US MAKING HIM CRY, HE IS THE HAPPIEST LITTLE GUY I HAVE EVER MET!! I AM SO THANKFUL FOR HIM!! OH AND DID I MENTION HE IS 4 MONTHS OLD NOW! HE WEIGHS 13 POUNDS AND IS 24 INCHES LONG! HE IS A LITTLE CHUNK!!

RODEO!!

A FEW WEEKENDS AGO THERE WAS A BULL RIDING RODEO HERE IN TOWN, SO OF COURSE WE HAD TO BE THERE!! IT WAS SO FUN!! NICK GOT ALL GUSSIED UP IN HIS COWBOY ATTIRE, AND HIS COUSIN ROSS DID TOO! I DIDN'T GET A PICTURE OF THEM THOUGH!! IT WAS FUN!
THIS CLOWN GUY WAS HILARIOUS!! HE HAD A BUNCH OF DOGS THAT DID AMAZING TRICKS!!! BUT HIS JOKE WITH THIS PICTURE WAS, IF A MAN STANDS ON HIS TOILET SEAT, IS HE HIGH ON POT??!! HE WAS SOO FUNNY!!!THIS IS NICKS COUSIN'S LITTLE BOY HIS NAME IS TREVOR! HE IS SO CUTE, I THINK THAT BLAINE LOOKS JUST LIKE HIM! THEY HAVE THE SAME CUTE LIPS!! HE WAS ALL DECKED OUT IN HIS COWBOY STUFF TOO!! JUST LIKE UNCLE ROSS!!

HALLOWEEN

SO IT HAS TAKEN ME A WHILE TO GET HALLOWEEN BLOGGED..OOPS! BUT HERE IT IS! BLAINE WAS A LITTLE PUMPKIN, BUT HIS OUTFIT WAS FOR A 1 YEAR OLD SO IT IS KINDA BIG! BUT STILL DANG CUTE!!

BEING A PUMPKIN WORE HIM RIGHT OUT THOUGH!!HERE IS ME AND BLAINE AT THE WARD PARTY! (DAD WAS HUNTING) BLAINE WAS SICK OF BEING DRESSED UP!!!

splish splash

BLAINE ABSOLUTELY LOVES TO BE IN THE BATH....HE CRACKS ME UP, HE GETS KICKING OUT OF CONTROL AND ENDS UP CLEAR AT TH END OF HIS CHAIR, HIS WHOLE BODY IN WATER SO I MOVE HIM BACK UP, AND OFF HE GOES AGAIN!! ONE DAY AFTER HIS BATH A COTTON BALL GOT STUCK TO HIS FACE, SO I PUT THEM ALL OVER LIKE SANTA BUT HE DIDNT LIKE IT SO MUCH. IT WAS STILL FUNNY THOUGH!
