Russell's Suit'

I got this suit for Russell at Costco.  It was so darn cute.  He was kinda grumpy with it on because his upper body is so big that it was all tight on him.  Just so you know this was size 18 months. (he was just a little over 11 months when I took these pictures)

 But man he still looks so awesome.

 He looks like an executive with a very important document.  Then someone got the boss mad.

Oh it's all good now.  Favorite picture.  Oh he is so sweet.                               

By the time I got him into this tan suit he was done and this one was a 12 month size so even tighter.  We ended up returning both and getting a bigger size (24 MONTHS).  It fits his upper body great but I guess he has shorter legs because even the 12 month size was a bit big.  So he is rocken' the suit on top and blue jeans on bottom.  He still look uber cute.

Starting to ALMOST walk

Here are just a bunch of pictures of us trying to get Russell to walk.  He was so close.

 Alaina was having just as much fun as the adults.  

 You have to look at all the cute faces both Alaina and Russell are making.  They are just so dang cute.

Alaina "YAY Rushell

 I love this picture.  It looks like they are hugging each other but really Alaina is hugging Russell and he is stuck.

 The huggy thing Russell is doing with Morgan is something I have only seen him do with me but it is so sweet to see him love his Aunt Morgan.

Alaina got jealous. Huggs for Morgan all around.

 Russell is a stair climbing machine.  It is actually really cute.  But as soon as the baby gate is open he is heading right for them.  

 What a fun night.  The sad part was that he never actually did any walking just almosts until.....everyone left and he took 3 steps to Toby.  I was so excited.  But unfortunately I think we over whelmed him because he won't do any kind of walking since that night.

Russell and Grammy

Russell and his Grammy were playing the "feed me" game.  This is where Russell tries to feed Grammy.  He thinks it is so funny to miss.

He was cracking up!

        I have loved his yawns since he was born.  So cute.

Toby had some red hots and Russell found them to be a great toy.  He loved making as much noise as he could by shaking the box.

I think it is really interesting how he can look so different in just seconds time.

The picture is my FAVORITE.  He is such a goober.  I love every bit of him. He really keeps me on my toes.

Morgan's Stuff

Morgan makes these baby carriers that are the BEST.  When I take one out and start to get it on Russell gets extremely excited.  Almost every time he falls asleep.  He has been in this thing for hours at a time.  Just last weekend we went out 4 wheeling and Toby had him strapped on his front and Russell loved every min. Actually he slept most of the time.

So far this year I have already had several friends have babies.  I had Morgan make me their gifts and I am in love.  It was actually hard to give them away because I loved them so much.

 These top two pictures are of the one that I gave to my friend Ashley who did hypnobabies and it is an amazing story. But here is her baby carrier.  Oh theses are the best baby carriers.  I LOVE them.  

This one was for my friend Demetrius and his wife.  I had the privilege of getting so see their baby a couple of days after he was born and he is just so cute.  All these babies make me baby hungry!!

Anywho if anyone wants one Morgan has an online store.  To the right of my blog look for the link for Monkey Do Diapers and you will find them on there.  I highly recommended them for moms or for gifts.  They are the best and I love the fabrics of these two.  The second one from the bottom is a fabric that was used for a blanket for Russell (FAVORITE)

Our Friends the Kane's, Landon and Long past post

 The Kane's are some friends that we met when we were up in Canada.  They just happen to like 10 min. from us now.  So Russell and I head over there to hang out a lot.  Estelle had 2 girls with one on the way.  To the left is Kayla helping Russell walk.  Right is Estelle is lovin' Russell.  I love these guys they are good friends and I am so happy to have them in my life.

 Here are some of Landon's really funny faces.

When we lived in Texas a couple of years ago there was a slow work day and some of the other guys in the office decided to pass their time in a pretty funny way.  We have been wanting a new paint job here is one way.
