Photo Post... weeks overdue!

Yes, I do realize that my son turns 22 months old tomorrow and this photo post includes photos from his 21 month photo shoot. If you read the post below you know we have been busy. I hope you enjoy them. M is a bit tired tonight so if his comments are not up to the normal standard, please give him some grace!


Weeeeeee!!!!! I love my new swing! Now daddy put one up for my best friend L too so we can both laugh in the breeze.


I am so glad to be 21 months old!


I just can't believe I am 21 months old!


Just checking to see how much of this chair I can fill!


Really mom, this is a bit of overkill with the 21 month photos. (Hey now M you never smile in photos so I have to post the good ones:)



One of my daily jobs is getting out the syrup and hot sauce. I just check them out, pretend to drink them, and put them back. Mom thinks it is funny that I don't try to sample anything else, but I know what I like!

I know you all wish you had these cool overalls! I mean I have a doggie ON MY OVERALLS can you believe it?! I still can't!



This is daddy's best friend L. Both our best friends have the same name. I think all best friends are called L, but I am not sure. I will have to ask my mom!

*Note from mommy* The next photos are of our time with my family. I am still waiting for some photos from my mom's extended family and since I have received photos from others these are a bit out of order.

These are my "special people" We pray for them all the time and I finally got to meet them. They give great hugs and serve bottles just like mommy!
My thoughts: We were so blessed to see Sarah and Jack (jackkeller.org) while we were traveling. You all know from the referral story that our M is VERY special to them as they held him in their hearts for many months too.

This is my Jack. I am so glad I got to hang out with him!


Mommy gets all teary when she sees this photo. I don't know why, maybe I never will!



This is one of my great grandmas! Everywhere I go I have more grandmas. It is pretty great!


Hanging out with some of my "Greats"


Great Grandpa and I made a hat trade. I really got the better end of the deal on this one, but don't tell him ;)


Apparently I am too big to drive this tractor... but I won't stop trying!



I sure do love my "ba-pa" and my new clothes from cousin K!



This is my TRIPLE great aunt! She gave me my very own piano and purse PLUS she let me play with her walker so basically she is one cool lady!



Great Grandpa and I are practicing our serious face. We are really good at it!



Oh yea, I like to cruise the sidewalks at grandma's in this bad boy!



This is my uncle Bret and his girlfriend. I have no clue what a girl friend is, but I know I like her! They are really nice to me so I hope I can see them again soon.



Ba-pa has a shop full of tractors and big trucks. We got to go check them out. It was AMAZING! I got to sit is many different trucks and "vroommmmed" all over the place!


I sure wish I was hugging these two right now!



5.5 generations of mommy's family! Can I count Kitty as a generation? What is a generation?



4 generations at the farm!



This is a very exciting piece of paper. Mommy said it was like an "adoption ultrasound" whatever that means. I guess we got lots of money from an adoption tax refund and now I can become a brother some day. I sort of like being spoiled so I think I will be hard to care handle for a while so that they don't make me a brother too quickly!



This is me at the barber shop. This guy taught be to bump knuckles so he is pretty cool. He is WAY better at cutting hair than mommy and daddy!



I am always working... I washed all the letter magnets for mommy. I even washed some of the floor too! I am mommy's big helper!

*note from mommy* The next photos are from Brandon's family's visit!



Yes, I admit that I used to be terrified of stuffed animals. Kids do silly things. Now I LOVE Kitty so much! I learned that Daddy had a cat named Kitty too and I got to meet him. He is sort of creepy, but I didn't show too much fear!



Hanging out with my cousin A and his mommy! His mommy is my daddy's sister AND my aunt. It is super confusing, I know!



It started raining during the street fair, but we still had a good time. Uncle C even got a fire hat!

Our family by the big lake... the lake is really behind us, trust me, I can't see it either but I know it is there. Yes, I know I look angry. I just like to do that in group photos. It is sort of my thing. I really do love my family.



Some of my favorite hands to hold! Walking in the sand at the beach. I am not sure how I feel about sand.



A and I had a GREAT time in the bath. We were dunking our heads under and splashing like crazy. I even washed A for a while. It was my best bath ever. I hope we can do that again soon. Sadly, they all got in the blue van and drove far away. I miss all my people!
