Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great, long weekend. The weather was beautiful and we just got to hang out and play all weekend. Here are some pictures of Landon and a couple videos of him from the weekend. We hope you all had a great weekend too. Happy Memorial Day!

We love this outfit (Getting ready to go to "Girls Night Happy Hour" with Mommy on Friday)

Yesterday after church, we decided to have a picnic lunch at the park and then head to the beach. We thought the water would be freezing so we didn't take our swimsuits. It actually wasn't bad and there were a lot of people swimming. Since it was a beautiful day, the beach was completely packed as you will see in the next couple of pictures. The first picture was what we saw when we looked to the left, and the next to the right....people everywhere!

Since the good guys won the Cardinals/Cubs series this weekend, Landon got to wear his Cardinal gear today! GO CARDS!

This is a video of Landon playing outside. He loves his bubble mower and his popper. Recently he has been pushing/pulling both of them at the same time!

Landon loves to eat corn, but we usually cut it off the cob for him. This video shows him eating corn on the cob by himself for the first time last night!

The Week of Landon

Here are some new pictures from this past week. Landon recently got one of his molar teeth , so he has 9 teeth now. His new favorite things include:

- Climbing on the couch all by himself

-Saying "Bye Bye" and "Da da" constantly

- Playing with his little cars and saying, "Vroom!"

- Hopping like a bunny

- Looking at pictures of his family

- Dancing

- Making an angry face

- Picking out books to read

- Playing basketball and baseball

- Playing with pillows

- Signing "Thank you"

Have a great weekend!

Saying, "Cheese!"

His new angry face...I missed the hardcore angry face, so this is just the end result. It is hilarious!

Wearing his new free shirt, but I don't think it will fit for a few years

This is his face in the middle of eating a lime. He made this face every time, but kept eating the lime!

14 months old & Mother's Day

Landon is 14 months old today. Here are some pictures of him from the past couple weeks!

Playing in the doorway...he loves to look outside

Helping Daddy plant flowers. He had dirt all over his face, as you will see in the next few pics!

Playing Peek-a-boo

More peek-a-boo

Tired little baby....planting flowers must have worn him out because he couldn't even make it through lunch without falling asleep!

New pj's

He LOVES to play in/with boxes

"Cheese!"

More boxes

Playing with Mommy's phone that he knows he shouldn't have

So pretty

Happy Belated Mother's Day to all of the wonderful moms out there! Hope you all had a great day!

iphone

Landon loves playing with Matt's iphone. He recently figured out how to get past the main screen (by sliding his finger) to get to the screen with all of the apps. When he figures it out, he gets SO EXCITED as you will see in the video. Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Cinco de Mayo

!FELIZ CINCO DE MAYO! Mis estudiantes tuvieron una fiesta en clase hoy. Esta noche, vamos a celebrar con la comida de “Fiesta Jalapeños". !Esperamos que ustedes tengan un buen día!

Swim Lessons

Landon started his first swim lessons this week and is doing great! He goes on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:30-6 for four weeks. The age group is supposed to be 1 1/2 - 3 years old, so he is by far the youngest, but he doesn't seem to mind. Only one parent can be in the pool with him during the lesson, so Matt and I rotate days. Matt swims with him on Mondays, and I swim with him on Wednesdays. The other parent isn't allowed in the pool area and has to watch through glass from an observation room. That makes it a little difficult to get pictures, but here are a few from this week. One of my good friends from school, Rachel, sends her son to the same babysitter as Landon. Jack is 4 months older than Landon and they are best friends. Jack and Landon are taking these swim lessons together, so I put a picture of Rachel and Jack on here also. Have a great day!
