FOOD!!!

Orion had a good dinner tonight... fresh steamed green beans, soft cut pears, and turkey!! mm..mmm...good! Look at happy this boy gets about food!!!

Orion riding a bike...well on a bike!

The progression of riding a bike...

1. "Cool helmet Dad!!" (It is a Buzz Lightyear hat...size 5 umm... 5 years!! haha that's a big head folks.)

2. "Wait a minute where are you taking me in this thing??"

3. "Um... I'm not sure if I like this very much..."

4. "Okay a little smile for you mommy."

5. "That wasn't so bad. It was actually pretty fun!"

Growing every day!!!!!!!!!!!

9 months + and EATING EATING EATING!!!

Well, we are trying our best to get Orion used to foods (mainly solid foods) so we attempted to give him frozen banana chunks in his teether and banana yogurt...AND SUCCESS!!! It seems the boy will eat anything!!!!

crawling!!!! video + pictures!

Watch as Orion CRAWLS!!! We bribe him with cellphones, camera cases, and leapster games...ALL THE GOOD STUFF he's not usually allowed to have!! And then look as he rests in VICTORY!! (His cute shirt is from his Mego, it says "I (heart) hugs!")

A classic Orion video...

Okay this one is going back almost a year now... this was taken when Orion was only 3 weeks old!!! It is from his first time at the pool! Look how cute he is!! and how big he has gotten!!!!!!

Cute pictures of Orion and Daddy!

Funny Video....

Orion is so funny!! Watch him as he gets more and more excited as da-da goes around the room to "get him" and check out his muscular back!! (don't mind my speech I can't talk after 8pm, the word is pronounced muhs-kyuh-ler by dictionary! haha!)

more pictures from 4-7-08 just because....

"Stop being silly guys!!"

Crawling skills!

Looking down... and a full head of hair....

A big helper in the kitchen...

Armed with his measuring cups and wooden spoon Orion was all set to help Mommy cook in the kitchen this weekend!! He helped ma-ma make his baby food and oatmeal raisin cookies...well he did more eating than cooking but the pictures are still cute!!

Let's go FLYERS!!!

random extras...

After a long 4 hour car ride, an extra long nap, a bad case of bed head, and two cuts on his nose...ORION STILL HAS A BIG SMILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

videos from spring break!!

This was actually right before vacation. Orion loves bath time and he loves when Daddy splashes around with him!

Orion's second time to the beach but first real time in the water!!

Orion trying to say ma-ma before he had it down... notice Kaya in the background asking to use the camera to take a picture.

Orion after he started to say ma ma all the time but then he got camera shy...

He wasn't camera shy any more but he was being a SILLY boy!! Listen to how good he says ma-ma-ma!!
