Pretty Amazing If You Ask Me!

So yesterday I had to go into Houston for an all day training and my mom was in charge of Landon. He doesn't like to nap down at their house, so she wears him out before putting him to bed. Well, in the afternoon they went for a walk around the lake behind their house. For those of you that know of the lake....it is pretty big....well my mom told me that when they went walking, he didn't want to be picked up....she said he walked the entire lake - 1/3 of a mile!!! I was amazed!!! He was completely exhausted last night and still is today. It takes a couple of days to recoup from being at Mimi and Papa's! :)

Full of Birthday Parties this weekend!!

Today one of Landon's friends turned 3 yrs old and had a firetruck party! Such a great idea for a birthday party and they were even able to get a few firetrucks to come out for the party. The kids had fun of course and tomorrow we are off for Chloe's 4th birthday party at Kids Jam in Houston. I told Matt today this is just the beginning of birthday parties!! :) Here are a few pics from today - check back later to see pics of the big bash tomorrow!
Lovin' it!!

Wasn't too sure about the firetruck since they started the sirens!


Daddy and Landon posing for a quick pic!

My Little Swimmer!

Landon just started swim lessons the other day and can you tell by the look on his face how excited he is to get in the water?? He loves bath time, so we just knew he would love swim lessons too! He is learning how to blow bubbles, kick his feet, move his arms, and many other things. We hope it pays off for this summer since I know all he will want to do is be in the pool!

Our busy, but fun weekend!

This past weekend, Landon had the time of his life! His cousins were in town for a cheerleading competition and Sloan, the youngest one, came over for a slumber party on Friday night. We have never seen Landon so fired up!!! He would just start busting out laughing for no reason! He was just so excited to see Sloan! They played and played till about 10pm then we had to tell Landon it was way past his bedtime....


Having a blast playing together!!

Sloan showing Landon how to really ride his 4-wheeler!

Bathtime....were they having fun or what!?!

We are so proud of our niece, Brenna! This past weekend Landon's cousin, Brenna competed in a cheer competition. We were able to watch her compete, as well as stay for the awards and watch them win 1st!!! Here are a few pics from their routine.



Brenna is the one in the far right corner who doing the stunt in the air - amazing!!

We had a shirt made for Landon - the front said "Go Mavs" - Brenna's squad is The Mavericks and the back said "Or...go change my diaper" - Matt's idea, but it was pretty cute :)

Big Boy Haircut!

Last week I took Landon to get his 3rd haircut - yes 3rd!! I think he is going to have hair like his mama! :) I took him to Cool Cuts 4 Kids and he got to sit in a taxi cab and watch Barney while the lady cut his hair - what more could a little boy ask for?? Here are a few pics of his haircut before, during, and after - he didn't even want to leave, he just loved driving the car!




By the look on his face, lets just say he LOVES his new haircut! :)

Weatherford Weekend!

This past weekend we went up to visit Matt's family. Matt's brother, sister, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc all live there and it's been before Thanksgiving since we visited them. Everytime we go up there we are exhausted when we come home because we try to make our rounds, but this time it was well worth it because Landon has grown so much since they have last seen him! We even were able to spend some time with Matt's best friend and his family. All in all, it was a great, yet short trip!


Grandma loves holding her babies, but as you can see...they are both wanting to get down and run! :) Landon didn't seem to mind it too much until his side kick freaked.


Matt's grandfather had a spill recently, but he is hanging tough in a local nursing home. We are hoping he gets out soon, but we couldn't wait for him to see Landon. Our baby boy snuck up to him while he was sleeping, so we were both thankful that he was sleeping in his wheelchair. :) He sure perked up to little man.




Here is Landon's future girlfriend and possible wife :) Matt's best friend has a daughter who is 4 days older than Landon and they had a blast together! Landon especially liked pulling out Mia's bows! :)


Brenna and Laylah, Landon's cousins, love playing with him. During a break in the action they watched Matt's sister, Mari, put Matt in an "arm bar" (whatever the heck that is) - I wasn't able to get a picture of that!


Landon's cousins, Brenna and Sloan certainly spoil him with affection! Sloan would kiss on him all day long if she could, but now that Landon can walk...he takes off when they come after him! :)

Blogging...

So I never thought I would create a blog site, but I finally caved in last night when I was looking at all my friends sites. I just love seeing how their kids change and seeing what each family has been up to! I asked Matt how difficult he thought it would be to create one and he said "oh not hard" - ha, so I just started it and figured so much stuff out real quick I could have stayed up for hours working on it! So I wanted to start off my first blog with a picture of our baby....this is his all time favorite thing to do - ride my grandpa and dad's tractor!! He thinks he is so big and you can barely pull him off of it when it is time to leave. The overalls just top it off - thanks to The Cash's! Now lets see how I do with this blogging thing! :) Hope everyone has a great weekend - we are headed up to Dallas to visit Matt's family. It has been awhile since we were up there last, so we are definitely looking forward to it!
