Tyler's concert

Well Wes went to his first concert last night. It was his big brothers first band concert. Tyler plays the drums as well the instrument he is playing which I think is the percussion? I can't remember the name of it. Anyway, I thought that Tyler was really good and was very impressed with their whole band. The director said that this is the first time that they have all played together so I thought it was pretty impressive! Wes also really enjoyed it, he was kicking his feet to the music and dancing in his stroller, too cute! Enjoy!

Wes laughing at the baboons

The baboons were chasing each other around and not sure if they were fighting or just playing but there were squealing pretty loud and Wes thought it was hilarious. I didn't catch it the first few times that I was watching this but it's also pretty funny that Brad is saying something about one of the baboons having a really red butt! HA HA

We had a great time at the zoo. When we first got there, we ran to the dolphin show and Wes seemed a little unsure about that, when one jumped and splashed everyone, he clinged on to me. He just looked like he wasn't real sure about all of it. Then we wandered over and checked out the giraffe's and rhinos which he thought were really cool and seemed like he just wanted to go play with them. He wasn't too interested in the lion or the elephants since they just kinda stand there or lay around and don't do too much.

He also really loved watching the walrus', the penguins and all of the fish. It was just so much fun to see his reactions to everything and I wish that I had that kind of excitment and enthusiasm everyday!

Wes saying no

Just some funny photos of me trying to get pictures of his upper teeth! LOL He was trying to eat the camera!!!

Of course I am shaking my head no also but it's still funny, next I just have to get him to say it... The last video is just a good one of his mood swings while teething, happy one minute and upset the next. We have fun going thru that all day! LOL

Summer fun

First, I want to wish my baby a Happy Birthday today, I can't believe he is 10 months old already. Seriously, where does the time go? I know it has been a long time since I have updated but now that my entire family is on facebook, I have been mostly just posting photos there. So, if you're not on facebook yet, you need to be! ha ha


Anyway, Wes had his first haircut since I posted last. Daddy did it with the trimmers and as you can see, it looks great. He's actually about ready to have another haircut, it seems it's slowly turning into a mullet, LOL. It's not growing much upfront but the back is. Wes is now able to climb up the stairs, everyone said we're in trouble now but we really don't hang out in that part of the house much and we already had the area gated off because of the dogs so we're good!

He is trying to pull up on everything now these days too so we're definitely in trouble with that, he gets into everything that he shouldn't be getting into. He still has no teeth and really no signs of teeth! I asked the Dr. at his 9 month appt. what the record was in his practice and he said his record was 15 months and that's his own son and he said it was a month of hell because he got about 8-10 teeth at once. I really am hoping that isn't the case for us or Brad might have to take some vacation time because I probably wouldn't sleep for a month.

As you can see, we have been having a really fun summer on the boat, Wes really enjoys it most days but he has his days that he doesn't want to be there either. Today, we would be on the boat except that we are having exceptionally cool weather here in Indiana right now, it's only in the 70 range today which is just weird for it being mid-July.

If people are still reading this and looking at the pictures, post a comment, otherwise I might not continue to update it. I figured I will at least keep this going until Wes turns a year old.

I hope everyone is having an awesome summer!

Wes attempting to whistle

He's been making this funny face and blowing lately and the more he is doing it, the more he is acutally starting to almost whistle. He had just woken up from his nap and is apparently still a little sleepy.

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband!

Well it's been a couple of weeks so I thought I better add some new photos. As you can see, Wes is learning to climb over things and he loves climbing on and off of this pillow that is actually kind of a dog bed but neither of them ever lay on it so I guess it's becoming a Wes bed. LOL
He is also learning to pull up on things and is trying to stand up, he's not even full crawling yet, still army crawling so I'm wondering if he will go straight to walking, we'll see.
We still have no sign of teeth but last week up til Wednesday which was Brad and my 3 year wedding anniversary, Wes had not been the best baby in the world. We went out to dinner and had to listen to a screaming/crying baby the whole way home which was not fun, it wasn't even past his bedtime. Since then, he has been the BEST baby ever, he was absolutely wonderful on the boat this weekend, falling asleep on my shoulder and the next day he fell asleep on the floor of the boat all by himself, the last few times we had been boating, he was really fighting sleep so this was a nice change! Hopefully he is getting more used to it.
There is one photo of Wes on his many jog/walks with mommy although this weather is supposed to stink this week, hot and rainy so no more of those this week I guess. He also is making a really ugly face when grandma gave him that lemon but he actually liked it! Yet he makes a sour face when I give him a graham cracker... go figure!
