Vegas Baby!!

This is my Mom, Dad and me right before going to my Uncle Eric's wedding! We drove all the way to a place called Las Vegas with my Grandma and Grandpa Kesler. I love Gma and Gpa, but I wasn't too thrilled about that drive. Mom told me I should be happy there wasn't much traffic since we drove there on NEW YEAR'S DAY@! Dad told me this place called Vegas is where he and all his boy friends get together once a year. He says maybe when I get bigger I can come too. Mom says "NO WAY!!" That Vegas place sure has a lot of lights. Those were pretty. There were a lot of people there too. But, like I said we went there to see Uncle Eric marry my Aunt Jane. They got married at the Riviera Hotel. I got to see a lot of cousins and I was told by a lot of people that I am really cute. I'm not cute, I'm handsome!!! Just ask my Mom, she tells me so every.day.

Patience Tester

My Mom says that I test her patience every single day. I don't know why she says that....apparently, she doesn't like it when I throw her shoes in the garbage, or stand on the dishwasher door and unload the dirty dishes onto the kitchen floor. I thought I was helping out. Every time she tries to explain why that's a "no no" she's laughing. So, is it really a "no no"? I sure like to see her laugh, so I just keep doing these "no no" things. My favorite game these days is when she calls my name, I run as fast as I can into my room and shut the door. Then I stand against the door so she can't open it. She really gets flustered when I do that, especially when we're in a hurry to go somewhere. My Grandma Shauna bought me a shirt that says "Patience Tester" on it and I tried to let Grandma know that she really needs to get one of those shirts for my Dad. Between my Dad and I, I think my Mom is really gonna start tearing her hair out. Dad does things on purpose just to get her all fired up and then he blames me. Who needs a brother when you have a Dad like mine?? He teaches me all the tricks to drive my Mom nuts!! At bedtime I'm nice to my Mom because I really like it when SHE puts me to bed. I'll cuddle with her while I drink my sippy of milk. When she starts rubbing my legs and kissing the top of my head, I know she's putty in my hand. I go to bed with her thinking I'm the best thing in her world.

Pelican, Dad and Table Dancing

This is the first pelican I've ever laid eyes on. Mom and Dad were surprised he just sat there with people walking by and surrounding him. This is on the Huntington Beach pier....we met my Aunt Julianne and my cousins for brunch at Ruby's....the pelican was just an added bonus.

Here's my Dad and me on the pier. Mom loves this picture of her boys.

This is me table dancing on Christmas morning for my grandparents, Aunt Mary and Uncle Dan. Mom made them all come over Christmas morning to see my loot and my cute self. She at least fed them for coming over. Oh, and Grandma Shauna brought over HOMEMADE cinnamon rolls. They were to die for YUM. I was actually table dancing for more cinnamon roll. Grandpa Marv was a sucker and kept giving me bites of his. Thanks G-pa!!

Happy Halloween, Happy Turkey Day & Merry Christmas!!

As usual it has been forever since Mom and I blogged. What can I say?....I wear my Mom out and she is just plain pooped!! Since our last post there was Halloween, Thanksgiving and today is Christmas. Here's a few pictures til next time. Just to hold you in suspense til next time....today Mom, Dad and I made breakfast for my grandparents, Aunt Mary and Uncle Dan. I got to entertain everyone by dancing on the table. Great fun!! It should be Christmas everyday!!

Here are my friends Paris, Ivy and Eden. Our parents took us to see Santa. I did not like Santa one bit!!

This is Grandpa Bob, Jack and I on Thanksgiving. I got to go to Wyoming again to see my Grandpa. This time there was SNOW!!! I even got to go sledding!!

I was a dragon for Halloween. Mom said I was the cutest dragon EVER!!

Can you tell that I was done with the paparazzi taking pictures? I got to go trick or treating with my big cousins.....they took me as an excuse to go cuz they are 16, 14 and 13!! But, man they were F-U-N!!!

Oops!....I Did It Again!!!

My Mom and I have slacked once again....I'm not going to even bother making excuses or promising that we'll be better about posting...what's the point? So, enjoy my pictures. They are out of order, but they're from my FIRST BIRTHDAY and my first trip to Wyoming to see my Grandpa!! Enjoy.

This is Mom "making out" with me in Jackson Hole, WY!!

This is the antler arch in Jackson Hole.

This is up at Grandpa's cabin. We went on a hike and I got to "ride" with Dad the whole time!

The McMorrow Men....if only Uncle Dan was with us we would be complete.

By the end of the hike I was tuckered out....so I took a snooze in my backpack.

Me driving Grandpa's Chevy winch truck. I LOVE Wyoming!

Grandpa gave me an oreo cookie to distract me enough to put this helmet on my head. He said I have to wear it when we go four wheeling.

Dad telling me just how to push Mom's buttons to make her crazy. He told me not to tell anyone that he told me though....so shhhh...don't tell anyone!!

Grandpa playing with me after our ride on the four wheeler.

Here's Grandpa and me on the four wheeler. I loved that thing so much I fell asleep every time we went on a ride!!!

This is Grandpa's dog, Lacey. She was the best part of Wyoming (sorry Grandpa but its true...you're a very close second though). I LOVE dogs. They are so soft and fluffy. Lacey, in particular, let me pull on her ears, look at her teeth, touch her nose and pull on her fur and she didn't even care!! I followed her everywhere. She was my best bud for sure!!

This picture was right before the sun went to bed. It gets pretty chilly in Wyoming, so Mom MADE me wear this jacket. I wasn't too pleased at first, but then Lacey walked by and I forgot all about why I didn't want to wear my jacket.

This is my great Grandma Adelaide. She is my Mom's Grandma. Mom says she's gonna be 90 next year! That sure sounds like a lot of years!! We went to see her before we went to Wyoming. She lives in Idaho. I thought she was pretty cool. She let me crawl on her counter so she could play with me. She tickled my arms and legs....I love being tickled. Mom says we'll see her next year. I can't wait!!! I also got to meet my Uncle Hy and Aunt Terri. AND, guess what? My cousin Terrah had a baby boy 3 days before my birthday!! They named him Miles....so I got to meet him too. He sure was small.

This is at LAX. I was so excited for my first airplane ride!! Mom gave me sucker for being a good boy too!! It was a good day!

Just in case you forgot, I turned ONE on September 5th!!! This is me smashing my cupcake in my mouth!! Mmm...chocolate...my favorite! I actually had two cupcakes.

Dad is helping me with my new truck. This thing is pretty cool...

I had a pool party for my birthday. Cousin Jack was there and we had a blast in the water!! My friends, Paris, Ivy and Eden came too. It was a fun day and I was exhausted by the end of the day. And, then the next day we left for Wyoming. My Mom and Dad sure know how to celebrate birthdays!!

Some Randoms

Mom and I are posting a lot of random pictures completely out of order, but they all tell a story. So enjoy my randomness....

I got the flu about a month ago. Aunt Mary came over one night to make sure my Mom was taking good care of me. She fed me some rice and thought it was soo funny that it stuck to my belly!! She laughs at just about everything I do though. That's why Mom says I should call her "Aunt Ha Ha". Cuz all that chick does is laugh at me!! Thanks Aunt Ha Ha for coming over when I didn't feel so good and for making sure Mom was doing her job!!

This is Jack and me at the San Diego Zoo. It was my first trip to the zoo and I loved it!! So much to see!! I got to go with Grandma and Grandpa Kesler, Jack and then Aunt Kelly and Uncle Peter met up with us when they were done with work. Aunt Kelly bought my Mom and Dad annual passes, so now we can go whenever we want!! I actually went last week too. Man, I love that place!!!

Good ol' Jack Jack. He is always happy and smiling. I'm so glad I live close to him so we can hang out together!!

This is my cousin, Rebekah. She came and stayed with us for a week!! I was in hog heaven. She's by far the best babysitter E.V.E.R. (besides my Grandmas and Grandpas, of course)!! We went to the beach and she played peek-a-boo with me through the umbrella. She is soo much fun!! She never got tired of playing with me.

This is at the end of a very long day at Sea World. Mom said we had to upload this picture cuz "it's soooo cute"!!! She thinks everything is cute!

This is Rebekah and Mom waiting for a show to start at Sea World. I'm so excited that she just moved to CA....she use to live in AZ, but now she's only 45 minutes away!! The best part is, she lives on our way to Sea World and the Zoo!! I am one lucky boy!

This is at my friends, Paris and Ivy's, pool. They have the best pool toys to gnaw on. I like to "swim" and splash everyone...especially my Mom. But, she never wants to get her hair wet! What's that all about? We're going swimming, duh?!?!?

This is my cousin, Patrick, and I playing together at Grandma Shauna's house. He's my friend. I like my cousin. Mom says that Patrick "mad dogs" everyone like I do, but I'll smile a lot faster than Patrick will.

We went to eat dinner after a long day at Sea World. Aunt Amber says that Patrick was very very tired. And, Mom had to take this picture cuz Patrick was actually smiling. He has bigger cheeks than me, but I'm working on catching up with him....he's got a 9 month head start.

This is my Uncle Jimmy and Patrick. Mom says that Patrick is my Uncle Jimmy's "mini me". Uncle Jimmy is my Mom's only brother. She says that Patrick get his "mad dogging" skills from Uncle Jimmy. I don't know what she's talking about though, cuz Uncle Jimmy is pretty funny. He just likes to act tough.

And, this is my cousin James. I love his sunglasses. Mom loves his red hair. James is Patrick's older brother. From what I saw, he's a good older brother. Mom laughed all the time at James. She says he has a "cute personality". What does that mean?

Catch Up!!

I've been so busy lately, I haven't been able to post. I've had a lot of visitors, BBQ's, days at the beach, the pool, learning to walk, cutting two teeth, Sea World (again) and the San Diego Zoo!! I'll tease you with a few pictures, but you don't get all of what I've been up to at once. The pictures are out of order cuz I always forget how to upload them right. Enjoy!!!

This is actually on the Fourth of July. Mom, Dad and I went to the beach with Grandma Dee & Grandpa Marv. They parked their 5th wheel there so we could be warm and eat food without sand in it. It was a dang good time. I was soo very tired by the time we got home.

I love to laugh.

Uncle Shaun, Aunt Jen, Ryan, Tyler, Kyle and Keira came all the way from New Mexico to go the beach with me! My cousins are so nice, I wish they lived closer. My Uncle Dan came from Sacramento to see me too. Man, that guy is funny.

This is Ivy and Paris. Paris is the bigger of the two girls. They have a brand new baby sister, Eden, that I like to stare at. Anyhow, Paris and Ivy came to the beach with me too. I was standing and right when my Mom took this picture I decided I needed to crawl.

Here's Grandma Dee and I. It was sooo very windy at the beach, we stayed up by the 5th wheel a good portion of the time and ate a TON of food. Good times, good times.

Mom says this is my whiney face. I did this a lot when I cut my first tooth. Mom was so relieved when it finally popped up....apparently, I was pretty cranky.

Here's me getting ready to walk across the room for the very first time. I was so excited that Grandpa Marv came over to see me I had to show off my new skill.

And, here it is...me walking across the room a few days before I was 10 months old. Mom so wasn't ready for this. I heard Dad giving her a hard time later....I guess she cried a little bit cuz I'm not such a baby anymore. She says "it went too fast."
