New Foods

I can eats some better things than that ol mushy stuff. I like these puff thingys!

Look at Me

Christopher is getting bigger by the minute. As the pictures show, he learned a new trick! No leaving the bedrail down now. Last night he learned how to put his feet in the right place to sit up on his own. Still army crawling but it's not going to be long...

Christopher's First Word

Christopher said his first word today. Shawn was in a meeting and Christopher looked at mommy and said, "Dah-dah!" Mommy about choked and ask if he wanted his daddy. He then said, "Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah!"

Well Dah, dah hated to miss it but Christopher has said it repeatedly since. Dah, dah is happy!

Fun at the County Fair

Christopher had lots of fun with his Uncle Casey at the Williamson County Fair. Boring daddy wanted to talk politics but Casey knows how it all works. Win the baby fabulous prizes!

Great-Grandpa Banks & Fun Around the Pool

Chris got to spend the whole day with his Great-Grandpa Banks. Herschell lives in Whittier and was glad to meet Chris. We had a great time. We got to eat their Fourth of July Picnic at the home with Grandpa. Grandpa had Jo-Jo the teddy bear for Chris and he has really played with it. Chris also got to spend time in and around Steve & Nap's pool. Chris like driving Nolan's little red car.

Flyin to Cali

We have made it to Steve & Nap's house in California. We were delayed in St. Louis for two hours but Chris did really well on the flight. Only had one little hiccup on the way. Bobbie feed him on the way up to relieve the pressure in his ears. At some point we must have changed altitude because his ears started bothering him. A few quick sips off the bottle and Chris was right as rain. He is a good boy. He is having a bit of difficulty adapting to the new time change but he will probably have that down on the day we come back! Pics are Nolan & Daisy, Chris asleep at the airport and Chris having fun with daddy.
