Look How Big!!!

Look how big my little boy is! Today I finally got a few pictures of Ford standing up with his table he got from Pops for Christmas. He has this week started to go from a crawling position to sitting position all on his own and he has started pulling up things. I think it will be soon when he starts trying to take his first steps. He walks holding our hands a good bit now. He has gotten brave several times and let go with one hand and walks with only one hand. We just put up his new swing outside and he loves it. He will just cackle when he starts going. Which is the best sound in the world. He is changing every day! I promise I will be better at updating the blog, Ford just normally doesn't let me get good pictures.

9 month check up.

On Thursday, Ford had his check up. We had a wonderful report. He only gained 1 pound and 4 ounces since his 6 month check up. He weighed in at 18 pounds 4 ounces. That is in the 20th percentile. As for his height he is 28 and 1/4 inces long. That is around 50th percentile. We were expecting his height to be the one under the average not his weight. We feel very blessed to receive once again a clean bill of health. I was somewhat worried that he only gained a pound but the doctor assured me it was normal for this time. It is due to him being more active and growing tall!

Ford is 9 months!!

On May 10th Ford was 9 months old! Is is so hard to believe he almost a year old. I pick a few pictures that I thought were cute. Ford is hamming it up in the second picture. The last picture his smile is so cute I had to use, even though his hair is messed up. If I do say so myself, we have a handsome little boy.

My litttle boy is learning to crawl!

It has been awhile since I have posted. I have not taken many picture's of Ford because he stops doing what it is he is doing when the camera comes out. I have a hard time even getting a smile. Even though I don't have a picture. I wanted to post and say Ford is learning to crawl. He has been getting on all fours but just the past few days has he been moving. He will get up on one arm and drag the other. His legs are very strong so he face plants a good bit. He also is very impatient and gets irritated that it is hard to get somewhere. He is used to running around in his walker. My little boy is growing! It is hard to believe that he will be 1 in less than 4 months! I will post new pictures soon.

Ford had a big Christmas!

Ford had a big First Christmas. We went to Selma for several days. While we were there we went to Pratville to see Santa. Ford did great. We then had Christmas Eve in Selma. We finally got a good family photo! After Santa came we drove back to Birmingham to Pops house to do Christmas with Kyle's family. As you can see in the last photo Ford likes to open his gifts. He started to open his gifts before we were even ready. He received so many nice things from everyone. We would like to thank everyong for his gifts. We are enjoying playing with them all.

Fords first tooth!

After Church on Sunday I took some pictures of Ford in his christmas clothes. He is so precious!

Ford is now 7 months and 5 days and he has his first tooth. This morning, I was trying out a new sippy cup and in order to get him to suck on it I was putting my finger in his mouth. He bit down on my finger as he does to sippy cups and I felt the tooth. Here is a piture of him after I made a big deal about it. He was so proud!
