10 months

Stephanie again.

As of yesterday, we are the (still) proud parents of a 10 month old child - how crazy!

There are no weight/height stats because he doesn't have another doctor appointment until his 1 year, but he's getting bigger and looks healthy.

What he's been up to this month:

-waving
-throwing tiny temper tantrums when he doesn't want to get changed
-possibly popping another tooth through (he's been really "off" the last couple of days)
-trying lots of new foods
-swimming for the first time
-traveling to visit Uncle Keith (all of those pictures are on Nana's camera...)
-helping us pack and move
-snorting and roaring like a lion (or bear?)

A couple of other notes:
-As of 10:00 last night, I AM A STAY-AT-HOME MOTHER!!
-We are going to Alaska in 5 days!!

Here are a bunch of pictures. ENJOY!


like I said, he's "helping" us move
at a rest stop on the way to see Uncle Keith and his new house in Virginia
so happy
I'm assuming he's eating something he found on the floor...?
ah...refreshing water!
snuggling up with a pair of shorts he pulled out of the laundry hamper through his crib slats
proclaiming his love for the cheese he's eating!
Grr...(Uh-oh! I think we might have a bully on our hands!)
What? I'm just naked with a bib on and playing with Papa's camera stand...
the birthiversary boy!
one of his favorite activities - getting just close enough to the shoe pile to see if we'll say "no" (which we always do, and he actually listens!)

the sign says it all!


Well, another move is under our belts and we are so unbelievably thankful for the following people and the way they helped us in a major way:

(listed in order of appearance!)

Greg & Roberta Borek
Jay Savage
Matt & Anna Hess
Randy Pittman
Doug & Diane Amidon
Keith & Missy Kleinhans (for the use of their house & pool after the hot day!)

Thank you a million times. Really. We appreciate you all and your willingness to take a chunk out of your weekend to help us. Again.

Have we said thank you yet?

got muscle?


If you do, we need you!

This Saturday, July 17th, we will be making our 2nd to last move (hopefully EVER!). We're going to rent a moving truck for the heavy stuff like the couch, hutch, desks, etc. and we could really use some help if you're available. It should just be one trip from Chittenango to LaFayette.

We'll be getting started around 10 a.m. and if you let us know that you plan on coming, we'll have lunch and drinks for everyone after (we'd even take requests!).

Thanks again for being patient with us. We'll be sure to invite you all to our house warming party when we complete our FINAL MOVE next year!

Hope to hear from you and to see you Saturday!

Here's a picture...


...just because. Aren't these the cutest little pajamas? The shorts kill me!
