Do I smell something??

Yep, you smell a skunk! That's what Nolen was for his very first Halloween! Nolen hasn't experienced trick-or-treating just yet, we'll try next year. I'm pretty certain he wouldn't have grasped the concept this year anyway. :) We spent the entire day with family. For the first part of the day we went to Kent's sister's in-laws, and the second part of the day was spent at Kent's grandparents'. Nolen had a great day!

Here's my little pumpkin painting a pumpkin. I think Nolen is quite the artist. :)

Nolen's First Sippy Cup

Oh boy, Oh boy! Nolen loved his sippy cup! I had no clue what type of sippy cup to buy when I got to Wal Mart. Fortunately for me, I picked the right cup for Nolen! Here's proof as to how much Nolen loves his cup!!!!

Back on the Blog Posting Saddle

I know, I know, it's been about 9 months since I last posted. I guess I became addicted to Facebook.

So, Nolen will be 10 months old in just a few weeks! I can't believe how quickly time flies. He is SO much fun. He says "Mama" and "Dada" only when he feels like it. :) He is crawling every where and is very quick. Actually today was the first time he stood up without holding onto anything. I think it shocked him, cause one he realized he wasn't holding onto anything, he quickly grabbed my leg. HA! I have finally had some success with getting Nolen to sleep mostly through the night and to take his naps in his crib. I have been on a long journey to get him to sleep in his crib during nap time and not on me. Don't get me wrong, I love the snuggle time, but I too would like to get something done around the house or take a nap by myself. If you stay up to date with my facebook page, then you haven't missed out on all the cute stuff Nolen does from day to day. :) I'll try to be more diligent with the blog postings.

Nolen attended his very first Bike rally! I think he really liked it! There was so much to look at. Daddy and Nolen were gaga over all the pretty bikes! It's not so much the bikes that I'm interested in, but the people. I'm telling you, if you are into people watching, Bike rallies might be one of the best places!

Here is a recent picture of my little guy!

In love

Can I just tell you how in love I am with my little boy? Every day I grown more amazed with how perfect he is. Kent and I are so blessed to have such a healthy and beautiful boy. Nothing makes me more happy than to see him grow and to watch his little personality develop.

90th percentile

We had our 2 month check up for Nolen. He is in the 90th percentile for his height, weight and head size (he has the watson head for sure! :)). Nolen weights 13.3 pounds and is 23 1/4" tall. He is my big boy! The dr. says everything looks good!
