I'm 4 Months Old and TAKING OVER!!

Hey folks!! It's me, Easton. Since Mommy has already been a slacker with her "resolution" to update the blog weekly, I figured it was time for me to step in. I mean, how hard can this whole blog thing be.....I have seen that kid on TV that is just a little older than me and he is trading stocks and has his own Blackberry with chicks calling him! Maybe this will get me noticed! Anyway, last week I had my 4-month check-up. I have grown to 25 inches (1 1/2 inches from last month) and I am now 15 lbs and 7 oz. I also have had a little cold...runny nose and cough....so, that got me out of the shots (for that day anyway). I will have to remember that little trick! Oh, and I am also getting teeth. The two on the bottom are on their way and boy, do I wish they would hurry. I am so ready to eat something besides rice cereal! My people have been giving me some mashed potatoes and those things tasted and felt pretty weird the first couple of times, but I think I can handle it. The new teeth have hurt a little bit, but not to bad......no pain, no gain, right? So, anyway, enjoy the pics of me!


I just LOVE hangin' with Daddy. Mom gets me to sleep at night and puts me in my own bed. Then, when she goes to get ready for bed, I start sqirming around and whining a little because I know Daddy will come to my rescue. When mom comes to get in bed, Daddy tells her how he had to come and "save the day"!.....................then, Mommy takes me my own bed. Hey, it doesn't hurt to try.

This me with my Uncle J. He says I am a chick magnet. The other night, he came over to cook supper for us. We had to go to the grocery store first and Uncle J carried me while Mommy pushed the basket and did the shopping. Before we even made it into the store, two girls came over to us and were talking about how cute I am...........It must be true.....the girls love me!

This is me sitting in my Bumbo. Mommy got me this and I just love it! I am sooooo ready to be able to sit up on my own. Everytime mom props me up or puts me in my bouncy chair, I try to push myself up, but I still need just a little help.

This is my with my Aunt Dee. She is pretty cool. She makes me do my "bigga boy" exercises. That is where I lay down and hold her thumbs and pull myself all the way up until I am standing up. That is how I keep this slim physique!


This is me with my best bud! I cannot wait until we can get into some trouble together. I already know it will be all T-Bone's fault!
Oh, he is also teaching me to share!
Guess who did this to me?!?!?!

A couple of weeks ago, Mommy, Aunt Dee, Poppy, and I went to Houston to see my Great Grandparents, Papa and Mama Horn. They were sooooo happy to see me. I also got to see my Great Uncle T, Big Mike, and Aunt Sherri. My cousins Mason and Mikey also came by to meet me for the first time. I love meeting new people, especially family!
This is me with Aunt Sherri. We even went to her office so she could show me off. She was very proud of me!

This is my cousin, Mikey. For just a second, I thought it was Uncle J!!!
This is my Great Grandmother, Mama Horn. She even pulled out one of Aunt Sherri's old rocking horses for me to play with!
Aunt Sherri and my cousin Mason with Poppy and me. Mason really loves my Poppy. He is a cool guy!

Papa Horn let me share his recliner with him and not just anyone gets to sit there so I felt special.
The new guy in this picture is my Uncle T (Terry). He really liked me. He just took me and played with me like a pro!!! He was lots of fun!!!!!


Me and the rocking horse.........
Me with my Uncle T again. He said that I looked like I had been missing too many meals!

Well, I guess that is all for now. As I type this, my Daddy is in Chicago. He is probably stalking Zambrano or something, but he insists that it is work related. Either way, we really miss him when he is gone. He says the high is 15 degrees!!!!!! Burrrrr Rabbit!!!! So, anyway, Daddy, here is a shout out to you. Hurry home......oh, and, bring me something good!!
