Family Visit

Hi everyone!

A few weeks back Grams, Aunt Alissa, Mamaw and Great Aunt Bug came out to visit me. They also spent some time with Mom and Dad, but I think we all know that the real reason they made the drive was to spend time with me!

Mamaw sat with me while I played with my walker on
Mom and Dad's really, really, really ugly floor

We had lots and lots of fun. Aunt Alissa even brought her puppy, Finnigan. He's a lot bigger than my kitties and plays a little rougher but I still liked him a lot - even when he hurdled over my head and scared me so much I crawled to my mom to cry on her lap. 

I didn't know what to think of Finn at first. It took me a little while
to realize he was different from my cat brothers.
"Hmm. You sure are a funny looking kitty."

We all went shopping and out to dinner together, where I was a very well behaved little baby. Grams and Aunt Alissa even got to babysit for me while Mom and Dad went to a wedding. They couldn't believe how much a little guy like me can squirm...especially during a diaper change! 

Mamaw even bought me a really fun toy - a blue elephant that spits out balls! I loved it immediately and still play with it all the time. The plastic balls are really yummy, too and my cat brothers and I take turns chasing them around the living room.

Whoa! Did you see how high the elephant spit the ball?!

I rock my bedhead like no other.

In addition to the recent family visit, Landon's been having a blast these past few weeks. He is trying to talk and can say, "kitty" "yeah!" "uh-oh!" in addition to "ma-ma" and "da-da." He also has been channeling his favorite animal and makes elephant noises almost non-stop. It will probably be just another few weeks before he takes off walking on his own - he's been doing a great job of walking between me and Brian and even took 5 unassisted steps the other day! The boy is definitely growing and getting stronger.
