Major milestone

We've been posting a lot of updates to the blog today but I think this one speaks for itself. And there's one extra that's just fun. Enjoy!!!




Yes there is music in the video below. You just have to turn it up to hear it.

My First Car

Mimi and Pops gave me a slick Lightning McQueen car for my birthday. I'm quite a speed demon now!

Check out my wheels

Off-roading

Christmas 2009

My second Christmas was a blast!

A new red wagon filled with presents!



Look at my new ride!


Thank you, T-Bone, for my zebra puppet!


New Books!


Merry Christmas Dad!


Spending the New Year with my cousins

First Birthday Party

His first birthday party was a lot of fun! He had a monkey themed party and a "no more monkey jumping on the bed" cake. Creative kudos to Becca and Katherine for the cake and cupcakes. Mimi and Bobo, Kitty and T-Bone, Brownie (Ann) and the Ragland's all enjoyed the festivities.

First Haircut

Here's his first hair cut from October of last year.

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY MERRICK!!!

Here's the birthday boy in action. He wasn't posing too well for pictures this morning so we'll have to settle for this one for now.

October pics

It's been a while since we've posted pictures. He's officially crawling (no more Army crawl). We're still working on "Mama" and "Dada" but he's got some cute facial expressions that he's learned. Check out the laughing and blinking videos (Sorry that the blinking video is sideways. Not sure how to fix it.). I can't help but to laugh each time I watch it.





I think the couch looks comfortable.


A good "Something About Mary" joke would work here but we're going to avoid that. Baby food makes for a great styling product.


Hanging with Mom on the couch.


This is his rocker from Kitty. He getting the hang of rocking on it. He just needs help getting up and down.


Mom thought it would be funny to take of picture when Merrick and Dad were looking outside.


SUGAR!!!!!


My first time eating spaghetti. What a tasty mess!


Here's the blink again.


Look how good I am at standing up.


Happy Halloween!

May/June Pics

We're catching up on our postings. He's getting big. He's at around 19 pounds. The 2 bottom teeth are in and he bites pretty hard. He's not exactly crawling yet but he's pulling himself around and rolling to where ever he wants to go. We're having to keep a closer eye on him now that he's more mobile. Here are some recent photos.


Chillin' on the couch playing some video games with Dad


Happy Mother's Day!

Dad trying to get me to smile for the camera.

Can you say "no" to these big blue eyes?

Fun with my bouncer

The future's so bright....

Random Photos

We haven't posted in a while. Here's a few photos from the past 2 months. 2 real good pictures of Merrick and Becca that I like.

Here are a bunch more photos that are too cute not to share. Enjoy!

His Valentines's Day gift from his Mom. His name is Di-vine.


This is from a family weekend at Bobo and Mimi's. He's with cousins Noah (center), Jaden (right), and Grady (left).


Great smile!


This is one of his favorite ways to fall asleep and make Dad's hand go numb.


Hangin' out with Dottie.


Dottie likes tummy time too!


We've found that he's ticklish under his arms. And changing shirts seems to really make him laugh out loud. Warning....extremely cute!!
