You deserve a break today!!

I may only be 9 months old but

I already love me some Mickey D's!!

I'll sit in this little chair if you bring

on the pancakes baby!

Daddy is ordering right now.
I'm so excited!!

I'm clapping because my food

has arrived!

Yummy yummy - the big breakfast

has all I could ever ask for!

Now for a little play time after that

good meal. 

Attempt #1 - good job

Kaya, the only one ready.

Attempt #2 - Anna is ready

but the rest of us are slacking.

Attempt # 3 is a success!!

Cool I'm sitting under the arches!

 This is so much fun!

Have a good one!



A Ho Ho Ho lot of Turkey!

I hope everyone had a happy Turkey

Day this past Thursday - I know I did!

Here is my cute family at our

Arizona Holiday (jealous much?)

Don't worry, it was a balmy 50 degrees

or so - and very windy!

My cousin Tim was in from Cali and

it was his first time to meet me.

I liked him right away because he

was wearing his St Louis Cardinal shirt

and he was just chill like me.

Do you like our goofy faces?

Kayla wanted to get in on the

goofy face action too.

Maybe it was all the turkey.

Whoa back off, no more turkey for me.

I'm just a little guy and I know my limit.

Plus, I gotta save room for my milkers!

A Thanksgiving weekend wouldn't be

complete without a little shopping

(or so mommy says).

We didn't brave the black Friday thing

but we did manage to get out and do

our best on Sunday.

Out of our way - we got stuff to buy!!

Wait a minute.  Is that fat guy in the

red suit really Santa Claus?

I've been told I need to get on

his good side and he'll bring

me the goods on Christmas.

Anything you say Santa, just please

bring me a lot of toys and

some new shoes.

I'll make sure to leave you

cookies and milkers!

Whew - that about does it for me.

It was a fun long weekend but

I gots to get some sleep!

Merry Christmas to all and to all

a GREAT night!!

Jams and my frog

Hello people!

I have my cozy jammies on.
I didn't want to change so mommy

could take my frog pictures.

It was the last day of my 8th

month so she just took them anyway.

This is the money shot.
Look at those lashes and

the cute little gap in my teeth.

I could make some serious cash

with these features don't you think?

I'm so excited!!

Oh wait, we're taking more pictures?

I'm so tired.  Just hurry up!

Ok, one last smile!

I went to the doctor on Friday 11/19.

It was my 9 month check up.
I got 2 shots (boo) and my

new weight is 20.15 pounds!

Before you say I'm a chunker, you should

know I am in the 50 percentile for weight and

height so I am just average!



Mac and Cheese Monday

I love Mac and Cheese.

It was my lucky day yesterday

because that is what was on the menu

for my lunch!

OH are you you joining me?

I better start cramming it in

before you get some!

What?  You think I'm kidding?

Come on, you know me well enough.

Don't mess with Griffey and his food!

I'm double fisting it now...you ain't getting any!

Finger licking good!

Hey, did I eat it all?

I guees I ate it all.

Man, can't wait for lunch tomorrow!

Now clean me up mommy!!!

More Birthday - but still no cake!

Today is my cousin Lindy's birthday.
She lives in Denver so I'll have to

wish her a virtual birthday!

Happy Birthday Aunt Lindy!!!!



Flashback Friday - You Say it's your Birthday!

Today is Aunt Stacy's Birthday.
For Flashback Friday I went looking

for some pictures of us.  Funny how

the family photographer doesn't seem

to end up in many of the pictures.
Here are the ones I found...

I am only 4 days old in this picture. 

See - I can already smile because

I know I have an awesome aunt.

She is 1 of 3!

Here we are at her favorite Mexican

restaurant when I was 7 weeks old.

Now at 33 weeks old she is already

putting me to sleep lol!

AT Halloween - even though I didn't

win the costume contest she was

in charge of (I got honorable mention),

Aunt Stacy is still pretty cool!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

The 3 Amigos

My daddy had to best friends

growing up - Jason and Torin.

We got to visit with them when we

were in Nashville.

Here I am with Renee - Jason's wife.
She used to work with my mommy.

Daddy was Jason's wing man

when he first met my mommy

who was with Renee.  Daddy and Jason

had just moved in to their bachelor pad

and then BAM!  They met mommy and

Renee and were all married within a year.

Here I am on Ms. Sarah's lap.  She is

Jason's mom and she never thought

mommy and daddy would have me!

The other 2 kids are Hayden and John.

They are Jason and Renee's kids.

Me and Hayden.  He is definitely from Tennessee!

I think I picked up a twang from him.

 Here are me and daddy

and Jason, Hayden and John.

This is Torin.  He is so cool!

He likes to play the piano like me.

Here I am with Torin and his little

girl Tori. 

The 3 Amigos all have kids now.
Crazy!!!



Meet the Crutchers - Part 2

Here are some more pictures

of our trip to Nashville.

Getting my milkers from Grandma Ann

Aunt Prudence singing 'The Itsy Bitsy

Spider' with me.

I'm having so much fun!

I brought all my toys and made myself at home!



Snuggles with Aunt Prudence.

My 2 Nashville Aunts

Prudence and Natilan fight for

my attention!!

My mommy feeding Grandma Ann's

famous green beans - YUMMY!!!



But she must put something in those

beans that make me sleepy.

So I napped in the rocking chair with her.

Daddy and his brother took Ethen fishing.

It was his first time fishing and he caught a big one!

Daddy must be a good teacher...I can't

wait until I am big enough and he can take me!



When Ethen got home he told me

all his fishing stories. 

Nashville is so much fun!!
