Butt-scootin' boogie!

David Michael is working hard to learn how to crawl. In the meanwhile, be can get to most things by rolling and if that doesn't work, he can scoot on his butt. I tried to get it on video, but he kind of lacked moving power by the time my camera was on. If you believe me, he started off completely on the carpet!

Paper Beware!

David Michael LOVES paper. He loves ripping it up and eating it! (I try to stop him before he gets to that point.) The other day I was trying to go through my magazines in an effort to tear out what I wanted and throw the rest away. He kept grabbing for mine. It seemed easier to give him his own!

Dunking Booth / Bourbon Festival Fun!

Stuart volunteered to be in the dunking booth at the Bourbon Festival. The money raised was going to help youth attend a Catholic youth conference. At first Stuart was heckling. After a few dunks, he was more or less pleading! =) I thought he had a full hour up there, so I was waiting to take my throws at him until I had witnesses (Leslie and Erik.) I took a stroll to look around and when I got back, Stuart was already out! I guess I missed my shot! (probably wouldn't have hit him anyway!)

David Michael and his squash!

Here are some pics of him eating his first sorta solid food - Acorn Squash. Since then he has tried butternut squash, bananas, apples, and peas.

Balloon Glow!

Here are some pictures of us at the Balloon Glow in Bardstown. David Michael seemed somewhat ? interested as we walked around. I think he will enjoy it more when he gets older. He really enjoyed the free balloon we got while we were there. It's the little things...

My yard sale finds!!!

Leslie and I ventured out and had a fun time yard saling at the best ever neigborhood yard sale ever! Each year it's fantastic! It's behind St. Rita's on Preston HIghway. I even stayed the night at her place to get out earlier! The best find was a set of end tables. I wanted to replace the borrowed ones that don't match the rest of our furniture. I didn't know how good of a find it was until I set the new one beside our old ones. Look! Almost a perfect match. It's great.
