Everett Laughing

Here is a good video of Everett getting really wound up and laughing. Grandma is lucky she didn't get peed on.

Everett Talking

Everett is starting to use syllables to try to get his point across. Here I think he is telling me he is hungry and would like more food.

Halloween Bean

Since it is the middle of October and we have Halloween coming up I have decided to enlist your help in choosing a costume for Everett. Below you will see several different images of what the Bean would look like in different outfits. Take a good look. Use the comment section to place your vote or suggest something different. We will do our best to then obtain the winning costume in his size. Voting will run through the end of this week. Now, the pictures....

The Wonderful thing about Everetts are Everetts are wonderful things,

They're bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy, Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun!

But the most wonderful thing about Everetts is he's the only one

Recent Pictures

Amy is right, we do have some pictures to share. I like to call these "Attack of the Naked Baby." This is me winding the baby up and getting him ready to pee on mommy.

Everett likes being naked, he also likes peaches. Here you can see him wearing his peaches and for once, you can see where his eyebrows are.

And like any baby, what goes in must come out, here he is working on a nice poop(note the red around the eyes, he pushes pretty hard). He went directly from the highchair to the bathtub on this night.

Lesson Apparently Not Learned

You may remember a post around the 3 of April, here it is, where I learned a very valuable lesson about carrying around naked babies. Well apparently, I forgot to let Amy in on my little bit of knowledge.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, he is sooooo proud of himself.

Everett Claps

Here is a video of Everett's newest trick. He just started today. This is what is happening:

Everett likes to crawl up to the TV and pull himself up so we started to tell him no to teach him not to do that. We didn't really think he would get it but he does. He recognizes his name and that he is doing something wrong, he then turns around and sits. Just today he started clapping when he turned around. Then he starts all over again. Here is the video:

Long Overdue Update

It has been a long time since I have posted an update. We have had a lot going on. I changed jobs and then had a week in Massachusetts followed by a week in Florida and then New York. Now things have settled down a little and I am working from home. I should be able to update more often.

Everett is getting pretty big, he is just over 16 pounds now but he would be even heavier if he wasn't so active. He burns off everything we put in him. He started combat crawling on his belly which quickly progressed to all out crawling over the past two weeks. He can also pull himself up to standing so he is pretty mobile now. He crawls over to whatever catches his eye and climbs on top of it immediately. Climbing is his favorite thing to do, that and get into mischief with Grandma's new puppy (they are inseperable).

He is eating well, he loves fruits and some vegetables. He can deal with carrots, sweet potatos and squash but is not impressed with green beans or peas, which we usually end up wearing while he screams at us.

Here are a few recent pictures. I will start taking some videos this week and also adding more pictures so check back often. Click on the photo for a larger view.
