Pictures............Hopefully!

YAY!!!!!!! I got the pictures to upload.......FINALLY!

These pictures were taken on Zachary's 7 month birthday! This was at the Big Orange Pumpkin Patch in Celina, TX. We had a good time. We fed the animals, road the hay ride, ate hot dogs, sat by the camp fire, took pictures with pumpkins, signs, etc. Overall, the 3 of us had a really good time!

Here we go for some pictures - happy viewing!!!

The little sign that Z is sitting in front of says "Give Thanks" and boy do I give thanks every day that God gave Z to Les and I.

Here is Z in front of a candy corn sign. People were watching him smile and laugh and would say," oh, what a happy little guy!" He was really hamming it up for people when they walked by and would smile at him.

Here is Z and daddy on the hay ride. :)

Here is Z and mommy at the front by the old wagon and LOTS of pumpkins of various sizes.

Here is our family shot; which I think is ADORABLE! I love it - one of the workers took it for us. She saw us over there taking pictures and came over and offered to take one for us altogether.
As you can tell, we had a good time and look forward to going back each year with Z.
Have a blessed day.

7 months!


So, I am a few days behind, but this past Sunday our baby boy turned 7 MONTHS old. He is getting so big and independent in some ways.

Currently, he still loves to be rocked to sleep and of course, I love rocking him to sleep. He wants to feed himself his own cheerios, puffs, toast, egg, ect. He enjoys eating any veggie or fruit - not picky (YET). He sleeps about 10 hours at night and naps about 3 hours or so throughout the day. He loves to jump, go for walks, and things like that. He can roll over, trying to learn to crawl, but not there yet. He will pull his knees up and then put them back down. He doesn't love tummy time, but he'll do it for a little while when he's in a good mood. He loves people, but if he can't see me or Les; then he'll cry. He smiles ALL the time! He is very observant and looks around at everything trying to take it all in. He wants to be sitting at all times over laying down. He enjoys sitting in front of the mirror and playing; which is really cute. When he gets super excited he squeals REALLY loud.

Let's see, he weighs somewhere around 18 lbs or so. He seems to be getting heavier and heavier everyday. He is a great eater and always wants to eat or drink whatever we're eating/drinking. If we have a glass, he'll reach over trying to get it from you.

Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy; these were taken this past Sunday when Les and I took him to the pumpkin patch in Celina.
Well, at the moment, I can only get one picture uploaded, so I am going to try it again in another post, so we'll see what I can do! :)

This morning Zachary was eating breakfast and he put a piece of bread in his mouth ALL BY HIMSELF!! I was so excited; I called my mom at 7:45 AM. Thank goodness she was up........hahahaha Last night when he was eating his dinner; he noticed for the first time there was actually food on his tray. I can't believe how quickly he is developing his skills and it just excites me to no end....:)

Zachary, I know that you can't read, but I want you to know how excited I am for you. We love you so much and we are so glad that you are part of our life!!!

Love you,
Mom
