Adventures of Andrew

Andrew is such a nerd! He has been having a rough go the last month. He's being a big fat grouch. So when he is happy and playing like a normal one year old I love it so much! He and this tupperware cabinet have become very close.

Baby Leia

Bumpy had to be induced on Friday (nov. 5th) because of low water. Her back was hurtin' so Manda gave her one of her famous massages. (lucky)

Bumpy is such a cute mommy!

awww...isn't she CUTE?!

I'm gonna spare you the whole story, but I just want to say, i got to cut the cord and it's not as slimy as i would have thought...it's like raw chicken. Monica is so loved...everyone was fighting over her, nurses, parents and friends!

Andrew love Raisins!

You won't believe how much this kid eats. One of his favs are raisins. I mean, raisins are good for you, but he eats them so much I have to hide them like they're candy.

I suppose I left the pantry door open because I found him hiding under my desk eating them.

Step One: dig for raisins with chubby hands

Step two: try to pick up raisins with chubby fingers

Step Three: Stuff as many raisins as I can into my mouth and try not get let chubby hands and fingers get in the way.

Halloween In Kville

Andrew was a turtle in a half shell.

Boo!

Eliza is always in her own world. We watched her walk away from her parents and find other things to entertain her...she was moving so much it was hard to get a perfect shot, cause here she looks like she is clapping her way to dream land.

Andrew is curious and friendly. He talks and waves to EVERYONE! Sometimes it gets awkward cause he really doesn't care who it is...but it just reminds us to love everyone.

This is Porter's new Bestie...Jacksen. Port of course is spiderman but ended up ditching the hot mask for a red arrow like Jacksens.

Some of our new BFFs, The Metcalfe Fam...minus baby William who decided he'd sleep threw this party.

Cranney Fam 2010

The night is never complete without an argument..

(..don't start dialing the domestic abuse hotline just yet, they are just arguing about whether or not ANN will get kicked off America's Next Top Model)

We were booked solid on the 30th! We were so excited to hang out with friends, play games, two trunk or treats, two carnivals one dinner and a partridge in a pear tree. To be completely honest, I was nervous that the fall season just wouldn't live up to our Syracuse lifestyle. But we had a great time and while we miss our friends dearly...we sure are enjoying our new ones!

Weekend In KC

We went to KC for Bumpy's baby shower. Before the shower Monc, Dad, Grandma, Me, Mike, Andrew and Port took a stroll on a local trail. It is was pretty and nice to get some fresh air and some quality time with the fam.

Mike enjoying a homemade granola bar. (sorry babe, this is the only picture I had of your cute mug)

cool lookin' spider.

How long do you have to wait...

When I got home from the store I was glad to see Porter waiting in the window.

When I walked in the door I was surprised that there was no movement..."port? port?"

aww...

Poor kid will learn that waiting on a woman to shop takes far too long...

OTM

Mike had to practice OTM before his test...he is over there studying before he adjusts Mer.

awkward? uh...yeah!

Even for me...
