E- makes a funny

I think E- was inspired my his friend Owen's sayings by coming up with a few jokes of his own. The other morning we smelled his bum and noticed he had a poopy diaper. One of us said, "Somebody is poopy," and E- looked straight at Dad and said, "Mama."

There are definatly times when you wonder if he knows what he is saying or if he just has great timing. Later that same day Mom asked, "Are you ready to eat?" and E- said, "Naa."

He's a funny boy.

E- also does some funny things. Like in this picture he was practicing yelling at BYU when they make a bad play this weekend. He gets that from his dad. Go Cougars!

His hair is starting to grow back after his haircut and we had a little bit of fun with it.

E- loves to have fun bouncing on Daddy's leg.

This is E- with his cousin who was over while her mom and dad went to a doctor's appointment. A few days later she had a new baby sister and E- had a new cousin. I like this picture, because E- looks so big in his polo shirt sitting on the couch.

The Cute Things E- Does

We went to the mall Halloween night and got some candy and saw the other kids in their costumes. On our way out we saw some manicans that looked pretty real. It seemed like E- thought they were real, too, because when we put him close he acted like someone was in his person space. Then he looked up and smiled at what he saw.

E- loves playing with the pots and pans in our house. It makes a lot of noise, but he sure enjoys himself.

I don't know if we've written about this before, but E- loves to hold up one finger. Now he is using that same finger to point and say, "Uh." It's fun, because it gives us the opportunity to tell him what he is pointing at and help him understand what it is.

I don't know if you've noticed, but E- is a great smiler. He brings us a lot of joy and keeps us happy.

E- loves rice cakes. He usually gets just a little bit at a time, but daddy gave him the whole thing the other day and he loved it.

That's one other great thing about E-, he loves to eat. We haven't had too much trouble getting him to eat. For instance he ate almost the whole rice cake.

Thank Heaven for Grandmas...and Aunts!

Grandmas always give the greatest gifts. They know exactly what to get their grandchildren to make them look absolutely adorable. We have a lot of new clothes from E-'s grandmas and even more from E-'s aunt who has a son born during the same season as E-, just a few years earlier.

In this one E- is eating a stand I us for my trumpet. He's afraid of the trumpet, but loves the stand.

This picture makes E- look like he has teeth. At this point he didn't. It's just his tongue.
But now he has three teeth coming in at once. One on the bottom, one front, top tooth, and one incisor on top. Crazy huh?

Instert your own favorite phrase you use to describe babies and puppies here.........

This sweat shirt is my favorite. Thank you so much mom. I am a BYU baby myself so when I opened the package and put it on E-, I'll be honest, I almost shed a tear or two. I have so many great memories of going to BYU football games and now I can share my joy with my son. I've never been so happy in my life, except for when I married Sandy, of course.
