A Boy's best friend

Lovin to watch the dogs thru the screen and yes

they are loving to get to know him better too.

His legs kick and he squeels and gurgles at them. The little bugger gets so excited

to see and be close to the dogs that he sometimes...gets on

all fours and bonks his head into the glass door.

This time I think Rusty licked his nose.....

I was feeding the dogs and cleaning up in the backyard and

there he was wanting to be right up close to the dogs. He got so close that

he smuushed his nose to the glass..... I had to recreate this

by feeding the dogs a little extra so they would keep him

occupied while I ran to get the camera and snap a few.

Not the most flattering but Funny.

He likes to help feed the dogs. Watches them as they run back and forth in the yard. He twist one way then the other just to keep track of them both as they run in opposite directions.

Bleubbers & Rasberries

Too Cute! I got a bleubber from Jaxon tonite. After dinner we were going thru our bedtime routine and he leaned into my face and bleubbered on my lips. It was a surprise to me...a wet surprise. I replied with a bleuber on his cheek and he replied with another on my lips. We've never kissed him on his lips before...but we have given him countless bleubbers and rasberries in his lifetime.

Sunday Firsts

Today at Church Mr. Speed Racer was lying on the floor, where he could try to get a snooze in. But he had something else in mind. During the Opening prayer, I closed my eyes and I could hear him scooting around. By the time the prayer was over is was up to the row in front. I had seen his toes a kicking one minute then the next they were gone. The Owens passed him back to me and within a few minutes he was back up there. So they watched him during Sacrament. He even unzipped Bro. Owens breifcase while he was entertaining himself on the floor.

It was a nice break to have someone else hold him as he wiggled all over the place. Especially since he found his voice and is starting to squeal! Thank goodness for the foyer. Bro Owens took him there during Sacrament and Kim took him out during Sunday School. It was an enjoyable Sunday to be able to listen to the lessons and Testimonies.

my life is everchanging

No sooner had we gotten the rolling over mastered, did little Mister learn that he could move his body in other directions. He's been pivoting on his belly, rocking on his knees, scooting and army crawling for a few weeks. Now he's getting quicker and not so shy about his movements. He knows what he wants and goes right toward it. I love the toys that make noise.. that way I know where he is...once I hear silence then I have to go looking for him and find him where he ought not to be.. He's moving with a purpose now. He loves playing under the table.

Little Bubba has also learend that he can make noise with his toys. I heard a chink chink and there he was hammering away at his little tool bench.

Still Every thing goes in the Mouth.



**Yeah 6 Months**
We started on Solid food....well mushy cereal.
Last week- Rice
This week- Oatmeal

He is doing very well. he has been watching us eat for some time now and loves eating himself. The spoon comes and he opens his mouth.
He likes it thicker instead of runnier. It also is less messy, So I like it too.

Okay so who said that once they start on solids they can get backed up? Ever since he started solid food he's been a poopin machine.
It's thicker so we are not getting the blowouts we used to.
Thank goodness.

The other night I decided He is old enough to sleep through the night and has done so a few times so...that is our new goal.

Pretzzel Time!

We have fun when Family comes to visit. We go places and do things. Have experiences to tell about later...like traffic in the city...when you go DOWN-Town. Oh traffic was terrible....worse when you have a caravan because then you worry about them making lights and being able to follow and keep up. My blood pressure as a passenger went up! Driving in circles trying to find parking. My stomach was in knots as we'd come to an intersection, get a green then have to wait for slow peds. and bikers. I cannot imagine how the drivers were doing............... aaaahhhhhh But we made it to some great sites.

After all the fun in the city we needed to relax.......So we made Pretzels.. we tied these in knots instead of our tummies...but the were yummmm yum in our tummies! We did tell Sydney we were making pretzels...not pizza. Phillips were the most uniform. But they were all so yummmy! oh I said that already.

Some BODY is Growing up!

We've got some Cutching up to do....!

Aside from sticking everything in his mouth "Lil Booger" is becoming very grown up. He has started grabbing what ever we have in our hands and sticks in his mouth, slobbers and just makes icky! He's not really drinking but it's impressive for 4 months

Going to School with all this technology...and because Daddy is on the computer all day. "lil Booger just wants to show off that he can type with his index fingers just like Dad.

Still Chomping away and loving every minute of it!

Chineses Vs. Japanese

Three of the original Tongs got together in Washington after the 4th of July weekend! It was so much fun to see all the cousins. We played an energetic game of Kickball with the Mishimotos (not pictured).
