more, More, MORE

We are working on Judson's signing and he has finally caught on to signing "more." Please excuse the monster hat he wants to wear it all day long of its in sight!!
This little guy melts my heart...EVERYTIME he leaves with his dad he brings me back a yellow flower! He puts in water for me and sits it on my kitchen window sill! Such a sweet boy....

Bumps and Bruises

Judson's poor head has had one accident after another lately! Cole was never this adventurous or dangerous at this age...several have commented that I might need to get him a helmet!
I know these won't be the last ones either!!

Caps

My boys LOVE their caps, Judson especially is becoming very attached to it these days! They both insisted on wearing them at breakfast one day last week!!

Working

Wednesday after dinner and bath we went and helped Levi feed blocks! Both boys thought it was alot of fun, especially Cole because he was driving by himself!!

Cheese.....

My sweet boys before church last week. Notice Coles hair...he always wants a Mohawk, but his hair is so curly I joke that it is more like a fish fin! By the time he for our of church it looked like I had taken the curling iron and curled a doodle curl on his head!

Just Baking....

Last weekend we had Judson's one year photo shoot. We needed a cake for him to smash so Cole and I decided it would be our Friday project! Cole decided while we were baking that he wanted to make a bike cake. By no means we would we consider ourselves bakers but they weren't bad...and the best part was they tasted sooooo GOOD!!!

First Haircut

We called it his Mullet, Uncle Junior called him Terry Bradshaw


This is fun....


Sweet Nannie

Love this little guy

It makes him look like a big boy
Today Judson got his first haircut...Aunt Nannie gave it to him.  He did so well, but its easy to sit still when you have a sucker!! 

Birthday Picture

On Cole's first birthday we bought "THE Birthday Plate, " and started a fun tradition at our house.   On your special day every meal is served on the "birthday" plate and every year we take our picture with it for the scrapbook. I think it will be so fun to see how we change every year. 
On the back of the plate we wrote the verse...
This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24

I'm still have a hard time believing my baby is ONE!

New Address



We recently made the change and moved our PO Box to Dalhart.  It is so much more convenient since we do most everything there.  I am pretty sure the post master in Stratford was happy for us to move our box!

Paxton Shay Ramey

Miss Paxton Shay Ramey arrived September 1st at 11:56 pm! She weighed 6 lbs 10 oz and 19 1/2 inches long...she is just precious!

Paxton Shay
He tried so hard to wait up...but finally gave in!
He was tickeling his new cousin!
Uncle Levi couldn't wait to hold Paxton!!

BIG Owie

Judson had his first big Owie Sunday! He was having a fit and ran full first into the edge of a dining chair! It looked aweful and still does but he cried for less that a few seconds...he is a tough guy!!

Shaving

Lately, Cole has been fascinated by Levi shaving! Yesterday we were in Amarillo for some appointments and Cole decided he needed a "shaver" like his dad! We searched everywhere for a kids shaving kit and finally found on at Walmart for $2.86 shaving cream included!
He loves it and the first thing he did this am was shave!! He is such a fun little energetic boy and he is growing up way too FAST!

CHECK-UP

Friday Judson had his 12 month check-up and shots!

He weighed in at 21lbs 15oz- 50th percentile.
He was 31.5 inches long- the length of a 16 month old!
His head was 47.4 cm- the head of a 18 month old!

His check up went great and he is doing everything he is suppose to be doing! Thank God for a healthy little boy! He is cranky today and his poor legs are sore from his 3 shots! We will be having alot of extra cuddle time!
