Food

Jack is 11 months old now and, I have to say, I'm probably the most paranoid mother about him eating bigger foods. He has two teeth on bottom and I'm never sure if the food I'm feeding him is too big, too textured, too chewy, etc. I tried to give him a bananna the other day and actually let him bite it instead of me chopping it up in smaller pieces. Jack proceeded to put the whole bananna in his mouth so, I went to my old ways of chopping it up. I'm really scared of him choking so I would love to hear any feedback from my friends and family that have had children in this stage of life on what you gave your children to eat at this age.

He is the most adorable boy in the world to me and here are a few photos of him doing his most favorite thing.... eating.

Jack at 10.5 months old



Jack is 10 and 1/2 months old now and doing lots of new stuff. Here is a list of things he can do:

• CRAWL! - He used to only be able to go backwards, now he does it all
• Pull up on everything (including the toilet)
• Play patty cake
• Eat almost anything mushed up (I'm still a little paranoid about big things)
• mimic Brent or myself with some sounds
• Scream, kick, roll over and do anything to not get a diaper on
• Watch Baby Einstein without blinking an eye
• Give hugs and kisses
• Eat leaves and grass
• Laughs when tickled
• Loves to pull on Kelty's ears, face, tail, etc.

Here is a couple we caught of Kelty giving Jack kisses...



Here is a few I took today in our field...








I love this little boy so much!

Meet John

Well, for those of you who haven't heard... Hope has got a special friend (yes, that means boyfriend). His name is John. Hope and John came to Conway this past week and Brent, Jack, and I had the opportunity to meet John and eat out with Hope and him. I believe she met him through her brother, Jeb and also from the church she attends in Fayetteville. He is perfect for Hope and I completely approve! Here is a pic I took of them in the parking lot in Conway. Aren't they so cute together?

Audrey

So, I'm a little behind on my blogging, as usual. Our summer has been really busy. In the winter, when photos slow down, I'll blog more often.
About a week after Brent and I saw Wyatt, we went to go see Audrey. Michelle is a friend of mine from college and Audrey is her second child. She was born the same night as Wyatt was. And what a beautiful baby she is! She came out of the womb with styled hair that has red highlights and lowlights in it. We had a good time visiting with Michelle and holding the baby. Here are a few photos from our visit...
