The Mountains

This past weekend I went to the mountains and stayed with my Nana and Papaw. I had such a good time visiting with them and playing with them. I also got to see my great aunt Brenda and Mamaw Helen, my great grandmother. On Sunday, we all went to church and I stayed in the nursery with Nana. There were lots of kids to play with in there. I had fun playing with them.

This coming weekend I'm going back to the mountains with my mommy and Aunt Christy. We're going to Mamaw Buddha's house with all of Mommy's girl cousins. I'm the only boy that's allowed to go! After the weekend, Mommy and I are going to stay at Nana C's house because my daddy is going to be in some place called Boise all week. I sure am going to miss him. :(

My Mommy

Sunday was Mother's Day. It's a special day set aside for me to tell my mommy how much I love her and how special she is. I gave her a card, a picture of her and daddy and me, and something called a "Dutch oven". It weighs more than I do! I also got to play with Daddy a lot because Mommy slept all morning. I'd rather play, but she seemed to like it. That afternoon we went to my Nana B's house and visited with her, Grandaddy, Uncle Scott, Aunt Brandi, and all of my cousins. I had a lot of fun playing with everybody!

Earlier in the week, Nana C and her friend Colleen came to see me. It was my daddy's birthday, and we all ate dinner together. Aunt Christy made some really good chocolate mousse for Daddy, but nobody would let me try any. :(

Wednesday night we went to Nana and Grandaddy's house to celebrate Daddy's birthday. They made Beef Wellington for him, but no one would let me have any of that either. Daddy did let me help him open his presents. I was really good at that!

Thursday night I went back to Nana and Grandaddy's house to stay with them while Mommy and Daddy went out to eat. They found a new restaurant called The Pit that they really liked. I played with Nana a lot because Grandaddy had to teach a class.

Saturday we went to my friend Holden's first t-ball game. It was very exciting. I can't wait until I'm old enough to play! After that there was a birthday party for his sister Hannah. I had a lot of fun playing with everybody.

So far this week hasn't been as busy, and I'm glad. I needed a break after all of that!

I'm so big

I've been very busy since my last post. On Wednesday, Mommy and I went to her doctor's appointment and found out she still has stones in her kidneys, which she was bummed about. Her nice doctor, Dr. Leet, said he's going to give her another two months before he'll think about more surgery. Afterwards we went to get her allergy shots and to meet daddy for lunch.

We went to the park on Thursday and I was very tired. I took a two hour nap and Mommy took one, too. On Friday my daddy stayed with us to work from home because my mommy had another kidney stone. Saturday was my favorite day because my mommy, daddy, Aunt Christy, Uncle Mark and I went to Krispy Kreme donuts in the morning and went to NC State's campus to walk around afterwards. That's where they all went to school and where the Wolfpack play. Mommy and Daddy had so much fun telling me where they used to meet after class and showing me places that were important to them. We even went to the bookstore and I got a few new Wolfpack shirts for football!

Today Mommy, Aunt Christy and I went shopping for my daddy's birthday. It is tomorrow! My Nana C and her friend, Colleen, will also be in town and are coming over for dinner. I can't wait to see them and to give Daddy his present. I hope he likes it. Last thing before I go, I can sit up by myself now. I still need Mommy and Daddy close by, but I can sit alone for a couple of seconds before falling over. Yeah! I'm trying my best to crawl, but it is very hard. I'll let you know as soon as I get it.
