Fall Fun...

here's a flashback to dad's childhood...we have a feeling this won't be the last pic like this...

i've got the fever for the flavor of a .........



ROOOOAAARRR!!! here we are growling and showing off our teeth!



we're also starting to dance a little...

a few recent pics.....

it's been a while (sorry) so here are a quick few pics.

here we have will hangin' with josie. unbelievable how quickly josie seems to be growing up! she is so great with will i wish we could see her more often. i see a baby sitter in the future...: )



OH-----IO!!! we are ready for football season! dad keeps trying to get will used to a hat. he loves the hat...he just doesn't want it on his head. he'd much rather chew on it or pick at it. either way you know daddy thinks his little boy looks good in the hat!!!



this pic is for our grandma in jacksonville. we are waving happy birthday to you!!! we look forward to seeing you again soon GMF!!!

when is aunt becky moving next door!?!?!

well we're glad someone can get will to eat!!! aunt becky apparently has the magic touch...er uhh...elmo voice. this was shot on my cell phone so it's a little grainy. thanks for visiting aunt bec!!!

our little talker/grinder

if you listen closely at the end of the first video you can hear the teeth grinding that for some reason just makes me cringe!

a busy august...

i must admit when i logged in tonight and realized that i hadn't posted in almost 3 weeks i couln't believe it had been that long. so i've uploaded a bunch of picks from august which has been quite a hectic month. mommy went back to school in late july and our schedules have been slowly adjusting ever since. here are some recent pics of will...

will got to meet lindsay this month. lindsay is one of kir's superstars from norcross and we really enjoy getting to spend time with her. she came out for an evening with us and will was very happy to meet her : )



we also decided to try and brush the fangs for the first time tonight. as you can see it went about as well as peas and sweet potatoes!



yea right...like there's any way i'm letting you put that thing back in my mouth!!!




overall we're a very happy little boy!




here are the first two teeth. we noticed this morning that one on top has come in. he's already grinding them together...the sound drove me crazy all day! reminds me of my sweet little sister's teeth grinding...AHHHH!!!




and just a few more because we haven't shown him off lately : )

fun visit from grandma linda!!!

this weekend we had a great visit with grandma linda who drove up saturday from florida and spent the weekend with us. here is a short video of her working with will on crawling. as you can tell he was having quite a bit of fun! i've also included a few other pics from our weekend. we were so glad grandma linda came to visit and can't wait to see her again soon!!!







and a glimpse of our first tooth!

another shot at food...

since our last food adventure went so poorly we decided to give will a break while we were on vacation in hopes that he'd have a short memory and give food another shot when we got home. we started with cereal and that went really well.



then we moved to sweet potatoes...



...and initially that went about as well as peas did! but will continued to keep trying and eventually ate quite a bit.



with a face like this it couldn't have been all bad!!!
