First Steps

Wright has been standing on his own for a couple of weeks now, so we expected that walking was around the corner. We were out to dinner with friends on Friday night and I called Mimi to check in on Wright. She said "You did not tell me he was walking!" WHAT! He is NOT walking (that I know of). Well according to her, he took 5 steps that night. So the next day, Brendan and I had Wright back in the playroom practicing his steps. We managed to get about 2 out of him. But, every day since then, he has taken a few steps here and there. He still much prefers crawling but we know that he will be a full fledged walker soon!

Atlanta Day Four

As our time in Atl ended, we were all very sad. The good news is that Kimmy and fam will be here soon for Christmas, and hopefully Mo and Kristin will also come to visit in the next year. Here are some more pics of the last 2 days.

Brewer was SO sweet with Wright. He kept wanting to hold him, kiss him and say "Baby Wright, you are SOOOOOOOOO cute!" (in a baby voice).

Let's race!

Atlanta Day Three

On the third day of our trip, we all headed to the zoo. What a great time all the boys had. Brewer rock climbed, Cannon rode the train and Wright and Porter rode in the stroller and checked out the animals.

Headed to the zoo..

Wright loved his first merry go round ride.

Atlanta Day Two

On day two, we headed to the Children's Museum with Kim, Porter, Morgan, PoPo, Kristin and Margaret Gail. What a perfect place for the kiddos. They all had such a great time running/crawling around and exploring. It was so great to see Kristin and meet precious Margaret Gail who is almost exactly Wright's age.

What a day!

Atlanta Day One

Wright and I went to Atlanta for 5 days to visit Kim and fam and Morgan and Porter. We had the greatest time and Wright loved playing with his big cousins. Porter C. and Porter H. (PoPo) were very cute together - only 3 days apart with the same name.

Porter was too cute on the scooter.

Wright loved riding in the red car.

Aunt Kimmy made mini pumpkin cakes for Wright's birthday and we all celebrated.

Loving that icing.

All the boys got a much needed bath after a long day. Wright was a little freaked out with 3 crazy kids and no seat, but it was worth it for the pics ;)

Halloween 2008

We went to the neighborhood carnival with Melanie, Patrick, Max, Luke and Mimi on Halloween night. Wright was happy to be wearing his costume for the LAST time. Max was a soldier, Luke was Obewon and Patrick matched Max with camo clothes.

Patrick and Wright hanging out. We took the dinosaur head off after tons of dancing made him too hot.

Play Group Halloween Party

We had the entire play group over to our house with moms and dads for a Halloween Party. It was tons of fun to see all of the babies in their costumes. Wright was not happy at all in his dinosaur outfit because he was hot and not feeling great. But it was worth it to get some great pics. My favorite is the one of all the babies together on the couch - they were ALL crying!
