Ok... Ok... It's been a long time.

So its been a long time since I filled you all in on my exciting adventures!!! Mom and I looked back at this summer and realized we've been so busy.......



Luckily dad was on VACATION for some of it!!! Aren't we cute???




Here I am at Darien lake on the Super Man....JK, but that really is my mom in the very last cart! YIKES! hold on tight mommy!



My Fairy Godmother and I looked on with excitement as mommy, cousin Emily, cousin Molly and Cousin Shannon had themselves scared silly!





AHHHH!!!!!!



Now this is really me!! Mom fed me a quick lunch as we waited for all of my silly aunts and cousins to ride the viper!!! WEEEE! That looks like fun, I can't wait 'till I'm tall enough...just a few more inches!



Once again, daddy played photographer while mommy decided to test out her tummy!





We had so much fun! Thanks "Auntie M" and Aunt Sara for the free passes!!! We had a blast!





I've spent a lot of time with this thing everyone calls Laney...






But now I'm confused 'cause there are 2 Laneys...except they keep calling this one Fenway??






Here's Uncle Chip and that other Laney they keep calling Fenway???







Ahh finally something that makes sense...relaxing with Grandma Ly! I 'll figure the rest out later!








Speaking of the "Ly's," Here's my best bud Sammy... We spend lots of time together...he loves to play...he's just a lot bigger than me!!!



He seems to steal mom's attention away...no one likes that! Hey that's my mommy!!!




But Aunt Dotty makes it all better!!! She knows just what to do!




Sometimes mommy gets a little silly with Sammy, he's not always quite sure what she's up to...why is she in the kiddie pool.....???



Especially when she can have "Big Deals" pool all to herself!!!!????



Its about time mommy and daddy took me for a swim...I've been waiting all summer...the pool was 92 degrees, can you believe it??
I had so much fun!! Thanks for the new hat "GG!!!" I'll explain that one later!
"GG" knows just how to keep me warm after a nice swim!
Celebrating Papa's birthday was great! We gave him a big surprise.....




What could it be??? A picture of me of course!!!! On a great big apron!


Did someone say wings??? and disco???? MMMM my favorite! Happy birthday Papa!



Earlier in the summer I learned how to roll from my tummy to my back! Take a look! Weee!!!




Mom's been trying to get me in my "Bumbo"...she says it will help me learn to sit up...I say its a lot of work!




Its much easier to just lay around....Rib-it!



Especially with Laney! She's my guard dog, can't you tell??



Look how cool I look with mommy! Gotta protect the "baby blues!"



Don't worry folks there wasn't much down time...not with my family! Mom was up to her old tricks again go-karting with all of my big cousins...."Hey Maddy the sign says no bumping!!!"





Just look at these crazy gals!!! Don't they have enough toys of their own?


Now that's what I'm talking about...just chilllin' with my big cousin Meaghan...she's got this babysitting thing down!!! "Meaghan, you're hired...thanks for all of your help!"




As if we didn't celebrate enough...the North Carolina crew came to visit! What a time we had...Ian had a birthday and was even cool enough to pose for a picture with me!! Thanks cuz...can't wait to be big like you!

Who's this cutie????


Aww yeah...Ian's the man!
Don't worry Lauren, I won't be this small for long!!!





We've traveled everywhere....Even to Franklintucky!!! Err I mean Franklinville!



Who are all of these handsome men?????







"Grandpa Doc, your form is all wrong!!!"





Silly Aunt Neenee was so much fun she asked me if I would sleep over...I thought that was a great idea!




Look at that, Grandma even got me ready for bed.....



and silly Aunt Neenee played with me in her PJ's!!!!


Even Laney went!

We got dirty and had lots of fun, so of course I was due for a nice bath when we got home!!!





I was so busy I almost forgot to tell you about my exciting trip to Buffalo's big and beautiful waterfront! Ha! Aunt Becky kept me safe from the icky water!



And at last I'm such a big boy now, I don't even need my swaddler to sleep anymore! Just call me Houdini!






Well folks, that's all for now!!! Mom's finally getting the hang of this blogging thing so be sure to keep checking back....September has been a pretty fun month already! Cousins are off to school, Uncle Noah's had a birthday party and I have been up to some new tricks!!! Can't wait to show you!
