LOOK AT ME GO!!!!

ok, so I have been VERY busy. Christmas was GREAT. I got so many toys Mommy and Daddy had to reorganize my playroom just to fit everything. The biggest news this month is that I finally got my first set of wheels in! It took me only 24 hours to figure out how to use it. Check out my very own video my Mommy made. Also, please check my Spina Bifida section. I gave Mommy and Daddy a BIG scare last week with a very long seizure. I had to stay in the hospital for a couple of days. I am home now and doing fine.  Just click on this link to see my video’s! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jON4dkC5szg&fe ature=channel_page.

Happy Thanksgiving- My First SNOW!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. I have SO MUCH to be thankful for. Here are some pictures for you to enjoy…

This is me with 'My Girls' Tootsie, Mommy and Lele

 

All of my friends came over for a Thanksgiving Party, and the adults played volleyball while the kids watched from the sidelines. I can't wait until I can play. One of Mommy's friends took this picture of me.It was FREEZING outside!

Well, Mommy woke me up early this morning to show me this…..

This is my front yard. Can you believe that it snowed in BATON ROUGE

Then, she made me get all dressed up to go outside! I HATED the snow, mostly because she put me in my toy basket, and it flipped OVER. I was so cold!

This is the toy basket I was telling you about!

This is ridiculous! I am cold WOMAN!

 

SERIOUSLY!!!!!!

Ok, Mommy is trying to figure out how to post videos on my web page, so check back VERY soon for some great updates!

My First Trip To DISNEY WORLD

Me, Mommy and Daddy in front of Magic Kingdom

Well, it’s offical, I have taken my first trip to Disney World, and I LOVED it!!! I can’t wait to go back. I went on EVERY ride that I could possibly go on. I also met some of Mickey’s friends. Here are some pics from the trip. Oh and make sure to check out my Spina Bifida Progress page. Mommy finally updated it!

I LOVED CHIP AND DALES FUR! Give me a high five chip!

 

I think I am in LOVE!!!!

 

Until next time…..

I Turned 1!!!!!

Well it’s official, I am not longer a baby…I am well on my way to being a BIG BOY. Once again, let me start by apologizing for taking so long to write to all of you! I have kept Mommy and Daddy VERY busy these past few months. For my first birthday Mommy and Daddy took me to the beach with Tootsie, Poopsie, Lele, Uncle Beau and Sadie. We had a BLAST. My favorite part was eating my first birthday cake. I REALLY enjoyed it. Then when I got home, my Ami and Popie threw me my very first birthday party with another cake and balloons. I was the only kid there, so I didn’t have to share my cake with anyone….I really liked that part ! I have been very busy with all of my therapy sessions. Mommy makes me go EVERY day of the week, sometimes twice a day. But all of the hard work is paying off because I can now kick my right leg when Mommy or Daddy asks me to. Oh I almost forgot, I can also say the following words…Mama, Dadda, This, That and Baba and Nana. I now can do up to ten “tricks”, including my new favorite ‘praise Jesus’. Most of the time I will do them when Mommy asks me to, but if I am hungry I’ll make her give me a snack before I do any of my tricks. Make sure to check out my other pages for updates. Enjoy the pics…..

Me and Daddy in Destin, Tootsie kept telling us to open our eyes, but the sun was TOO BRIGHT!

I was trying to tell Tootsie that I didn't want to take any more pictures!!!!!

 

This is my first ever birthday cake!

As you can see I REALLY ENJOYED myself!

I can't wait until I turn 2!

Sorry it’s been a while….

So much has happened since I last updated my site! I just took my first plane ride. I had SO MUCH FUN. Everybody kept telling Mommy and Daddy what a good little boy I was. We went to Charlotte, NC. Daddy had a business meeting and he wanted me and Mommy to go with him to keep him company. I am a GREAT person to travel with. I even sat in my own seat.

I have also been swimming A LOT. I LOVE the water. Mommy bought me this really cool floating car. I just sit back and enjoy the ride.

This is me and Daddy on Mother’s Day. We love matching!!

 

Here I am with Mommy at Nellie’s house.

So Daddy won’t get jealous, this is us on the same day.

Mommy finally figured out how to get the pictures off of her phone, so enjoy and I will try to write again VERY soon.

 This is me in my peach hospital gown. What were they thinking! Why couldn’t I have blue??? People kept asking if I was a girl

Mommy couldn’t stop Sophie in time. She licked me right in my mouth… YUCK. Mommy, Mrs Gala, Mrs Michelle, and Mrs Krista are all working really hard to help me start to crawl. Look how far I have come! That bar helps me, but soon I won’t need it.

This is called “Serious Eyes” I do it to Mommy and Daddy and then they do it back to me. We all laugh after, and then do it again, and again, and again. Mommy wants me to make “sweet eyes” but I am a boy, and besides I LOVE making “serious eyes”!

This is my stander. It helps my muscles grow strong. I go in this three times a day for about 20-30mins at a time. I love being in this because my arms are free to play. When I get a little older Mommy is going to get a really nice one for me.

Make sure to check my Spina Bifida section for all of my medical updates. God IS GOOD ALL OF THE TIME

 

Thanks for all of the PRAYERS

Well, I had a pretty rough couple of weeks, but I also have a HUGE PRAISE REPORT! Last week I went to my Urologist, and she told my Mommy and Daddy that they only had to catheterize me in the morning and at night! That’s a HUGE improvement. She also said that I did not have ANY reflux into my kidney’s. Once again, we are all amazed at God’s healing power in my life. After that appointment we drove into New Orleans, and my Orthopedic doctor said that I needed to go back into casts for a little while. I have about one more week, and then it’s time to go swimming! Mom ordered my new DAFO’S, and she got some dinosaures on them! I can’t wait to take some pictures. This past week I was having some “spells” that made Mommy and Daddy pretty worried. They took me to the ER. Man was this place CRAZY!!! They had people everywhere. After a bunch of tests, most of which I can’t even pronounce, the doctors determined that I was having seizures. We had to stay over night at the hospital so the doctors could monitor my progress. They put me on some medicine to stop the seizures. The medicine doesn’t bother me too much and it doesn’t taste too bad either. Mommy is making some more doctors appointments for me so we can try to figure out why I was having seizures. I want to thank all of my family and friends who prayed for me, mommy and daddy. It was a pretty rough week, but through the grace of God we made it through. Now I am just waiting to get these casts off so I can go swimming with all of my friends! 

Here are some NEW PICS taken by Sadie, didn’t she do a great job!

 

My First Easter

I celebrated my first Easter this past weekend! I am so thankful to have a Savior like Jesus! This week my Tootsie turns the BIG 50! We celebrated with my family, and I got to meet my GREAT, GREAT, GREAT Aunt Ethel and Uncle Bud. It was really awesome to meet them. My Ami took a pretty cool picture of me in my Easter outfit. I am with my Mickey, he’s my favorite stuffed animal right now. And I had to include some pictures of me and my best-friend Sheldon, in our matching Easter outfits! Also, check out my family section for some new pics. Oh, and I’ll tell you all about my new therapy sessions in my Spina Bifida section! Enjoy!!

This is me and my Tootsie celebrating her birthday. Isn’t she beautiful!!!

This is me and my Great Great Great Uncle Bud

This is the picture my Ami took of me and my Mickey Mouse. I can’t wait for my first trip to Disney!

Me and Sheldon in our matching Easter outfits, she makes me laugh!

And apparently, I make her laugh too….

What did I say that was so funny?????

Man, I can’t figure this girl out. Maybe Uncle Blair and Daddy can give me some pointers!

February Has Come and Gone

Sorry I haven’t written in a while. I have been pretty busy! Let’s see… I celebrated my first Mardi Gras with my bestfriend Sheldon! We went to Houston in a BIG motor home. I want to thank Mr Richard and Mrs Ann, they are Sheldon’s grandparents and they invited me and mommy to go with them. We had SO much fun. We went to the Galleria and mommy and Aunt Melissa made me shop ’til I dropped.

I have had several doctor’s appointments, so make sure to check out my Spina Bifida section!

Here are some new pictures…… ENJOY

SPLISH SPLASH, I WAS TAKIN’ A BATH….

01.11.08 – My Mommy’s Birthday is today!  Happy Birthday, Mom!  We went over and celebrated with Uncle Blair, Aunt Melissa, and Sheldon.  Sheldon and I just hung out laughing and playing.  We started posing and, of course, the cameras broke out.  So…being the stars that we are, we had to put a show on!!

Sheldon tickling my feet and trying to eat my toes…  That girl is brave foolin’ with my feet!  Has she ever seen what kinda feet I come from like my Pawpee and Popsie’s?

Now that’s what I call “Blue Eyes”!!

….and Oliver moves in for the kill on his first kiss and Sheldon wants no part of it…..DENIED!!

Wow!  That girl packs a mean ‘whack’!  Here I am trying to ‘bust a move’ and she wacks me across the head! 

…and then she has the nerve to laugh about it!

…. And then after dinner and play time, it was time for a bath with my bestfriend.

….. “I wash your back, you wash mine?”

…. I think I am going to try out a new hair style, and I am going for the rebel look. Do you think Mommy would approve?

….Ok so Mommy wasn’t crazy about my new hair idea, but that’s ok ’cause I had a blast with my bestfriend today!

01/07/08 – GOOOOO TIGERS!!
