The best 1st Christmas Ever


Landon had a great 1st Christmas, but it was even more special for mommy and daddy. It was wonderful getting to be with our special baby boy and helping him open presents. Even more special was that Landon has come so far in the past few months...he has grown so big and strong. He is healthy and such a happy baby. This year God truly blessed us with our miracle baby.

The new hat...Again

We told you that daddy had him wear that hat pretty much all night. Here it is again. But he is still as cute as ever.

Resting after all the presents are done

Landon is getting good use out of his new "little man chair". After getting all the presents open, he decided he would lounge a little and pose for a few more pictures. Mommy and daddy just can't seem to get enough pictures.

Cardinals hat...Landon or Daddy's Present


Landon got a new St. Louis Cardinal's beanie for Christmas. I don't who was more excited Landon or Daddy. Either way daddy made Landon have almost every picture the rest of the evening taken in that hat.

Living in Arkansas but my family is from Missouri

Landon may have been born in Arkansas but his family is from Missouri, so his Aunt Tami said he is a Mizzou fan at heart. Landon and Aunt Tami are already predicting the Cotton Bowl winner this year. Shhh...don't tell all the Razorback fans. Ha!

Tired after the presents


Landon decided he needed a nap after opening all his family presents. He needed to rest up before he got all his presents from Santa. He has been a very good boy, so he is sure that he will have many more presents to open on Christmas.

Landon has gained over 10 lbs since being born. He had his 4th month check-up the other day and he got the yucky shots again. He was weighing in at 14 lbs. 4oz. He was also 24 1/4" long. Out little baby is growing up so big. It is so hard to believe that a few months ago we were worrkied about him being too little. Look at him NOW!!!

Mr. Whiskers and Me

Mr. Whiskers was a gift from Wyatt before Landon was even born. He is already enjoying spending time with him. But he hasn't mastered the art of carrying him around in his mouth yet Wyatt. You will have to teach him when you come visit.

Aleady a fan but doesn't know it yet

Daddy has been waiting since birth for Landon to grow into this hat, and finally here it is. Landon was able to break in this hat one cool evening before we all went out. Doesn't he just look so cute as a St. Louis Cardinal's fan?

Sorry girls....No peeking

Landon loves bath time. He just gets to sit back and relax, and relax he does. He acts like he is a spa everytime he gets a bath. Here he is enjoying his bath time in Mommy & Daddy's new tub.

What a sweet pea

Landon's showing off his halloween costume. He looks so cute now, but I am sure when he is 25 he is going to hate this picture. What do you all think?

Grumpy old man

Daddy called him grummpy old man in this outfit. He was wearing his "grandpa" sweater the other day for pictures and he has started to lose a little bit of his hair on top,so he is now "balding". Hence the old man part.... and he was very tired at this time so there comes in the grumpy.

After a good nights sleep

Landon has been sleeping much better over the past few weeks (knock on wood). He has been going 6-7 hours during the night this past week. So when he wakes up he is VERY hungry. Then after eating and a good night of sleep, he is a happy boy.

After his 1st Morning bath

This is after Landon had an early morning bath because of his latest accomplishment. He pooped this morning and it came out the back of his diaper all over his onesie and the towel he was laying on. So needless to say, he had to have a good cleaning. He was very happy after getting that bath and he was telling us about it.

Double Boo-Boos

Sleepy man

After eating breakfast yesterday, little man got really tired and stretched out on mommy's legs to get some rest. Daddy thought it was so funny that he was so relaxed. Doesn't he look peaceful?

Floor time

Landon woke up in a great mood the other morning and was cooing and wanting to play, so he had his first floor time with his new Baby Einstein floor mat. He loves it. He likes to swing his arm and make the toys move and he loves the star above that plays music and flashes colored lights.

Puppy Love

Landon got a new Binky holder and it is a red puppy. He likes to hold it when sucking the binky. When Bailey was a little she also had a red puppy she chewed on to help her sleep. Those red puppies must have a soothing effect.

Four generations

This picture shows Landon's daddy, grandpa, and great grandma. He got to meet his great-grandma for the first time last week and she couldn't stop looking at him. She also came up with a nick name that only she is allowed to use. I guess Landon needed to be shortened because she kept asking if we were going to call him " Lanny". Mommy says the answer is NO, and only great granny can use that.

My sister and me

This was my first meeting with my sister, Bailey. She has been staying with my grandma and grandpa while our house is being built so we hadn't met before. She may be a little jealous, but I think she likes me.
