9 months old!!!

It is hard to believe that this past Saturday Andrew turned 9 months old!!! What is even wilder is that he also spent his first weekend ever away from mom and dad and had a blast. He got to stay with Grandma and auntie Ashley on Friday and Mimi and Gramps on Saturday, while Bobby and I went to Lubbock for Ashley’s wedding.
From what I hear Andrew did great sleeping at their houses and drinking formula like it was a chocolate milkshake! Bobby and I also did well, I was really nervous earlier in the week thinking about it. On Wednesday night I couldn't sleep thinking about it, however when we left on Friday I was fine. Sunday morning I was ready to see Andrew again, but I really enjoyed our weekend. We decided we need to get away again.
Bobby and I had fun walking around Tech campus and remembering our college days. I also forgot what good shape I was in, back in the day. My legs hurt after our stroll around the campus and to think I used to walk that distance twice a day and teach a workout class!!Here we are all dressed up for the wedding, it was fun the reception was at the Stadium Club.
Me and the beautiful bride!


My super cute hubby, in the background you can see that Tech is already getting ready for the parade of lights.


This is my favorite thing about Tech campus in the fall, "CRUNCHIES" that is the name we have given these seed things that fall from the trees. I love the crunch they make when you step on them. If I knew what kind of a tree it is I would have to plant on in our front yard!



Before we left, he looks like he is in trouble and got caught, but he isn't. Andrew likes to play the piano with momma.



Our little pumpkin.
A list of accomplishments:
  • Andrew works hard every day. He is such a wiggle worm. He is always on the move, crawling, climbing, pulling up,twisting around, and finding things to get into.
  • He love to eat, he may be small and starting to slim down from always being on the move, but this kid can eat. He loves solid foods and loves feeding himself.
  • He is still the strong quiet type, dadda is the only word for now.
  • He has so much personality, some days he is so happy and smiles a lot. Other days he stares you down and will only crack a half smile. (hum this sounds like someone else I know, BOBBY!!!! :)
  • He is a good sleeper and sleeps from 7:30- 6am most nights. Some nights he stays up to the wee hour of 6:30 pm.
  • He takes 2 naps a day usually around 1.5 hours each.
  • A couple of weeks ago he finally stopped army crawling and crawled with his knees. I was sooo excited when he did it I kept cheering GO, ANDREW, GO, ANDREW, GO
  • Andrew loves to two step with momma, he smiles and giggles as we dance and I sing along to the song.

We love our little man, it is hard to believe that as I type this blog he has been out of utero longer than in utero. The time sure so does fly and we are loving every minuet of it.
