Peek-a-boo and other skills

Little Jude is really starting to act more and more like a toddler and less like a baby. One day he crawled into the bathroom connected to his room and started hiding behind the curtain and peeking out to see if I was wondering where he was. Well, this started a string of peek-a-boo games.






Where is little Jude?




Are you looking for me Mom?








Here I am!!! Peek -a-boo!!!!







Since he has also gotten 3 almost 4 teeth up top along with his 2 bottom teeth, he likes to bite everything. He bites my shirt, his stuffed animals, our noses etc. I saw him in his crib today before his nap carrying his stuffed rabbit around in his mouth by biting it and holding it that way. He doesn't pose in a way that we have been able to get a good picture of these chompers but here is sort of one.

Needless to say, he is alot of fun right now and we are excited to see him start to walk and doing all sorts of other things!!


We are looking forward to a long weekend and hope you all have a Happy Labor Day!!

God Bless,
Mackenzi :)

Starting a blog with fear and trembling...

I just called Lauchlin to ask him what I should call our blog and he said "Your what?", a few times. Needless to say I don't think he is a big fan of the idea and I have been dragging my feet for a while about starting a blog. I'm not totally sure why but I think I have a fear that I will start putting my deepest darkest secrets on here and people will be able to read them now and for all of eternity. Frankly, I also think that anything I write on here can and will be used against me in the court of law. This may be true but I think my fear is a bit exaggerated and I figure tons of people have these things and I guess we'll all go down together.

Now I bet I have you hooked. What will she say on this blog? What secrets does she have? Well, don't get your britches all in a twist because I'm going to take it slow here. Especially because my husband will probably be stalking this page to edit my grammar and content. That should be fun...

I will do my best to post regularly. As a blog reader, I am realizing that clicking on a blog and seeing no new post can be rather discouraging. So, I will hopefully keep you capitivated by the excitement that is my/our lives! Ha ha! But, honestly, I want to share with you what is going on so that you can feel connected to us and get a glimpse of our everyday life. I want this to be true especially for those of you who we do not see very often and love dearly.

Well, that is all for now. I'm feeling rather jittery with having written my first blog post. Have I said anything incriminating yet?
