My how time flies!

I was reminded this week how terribly delinquent I've been in posting things. So let's get to it!

We moved to Texas in the end of April and here are a couple of pictures that we've taken since then:

Hinckley in his natural, happy state

Hinckley's black bean goatee

We love living in David and Deanie's house. We are grateful to them for giving us this opportunity. Hinckley really loves the room to explore. We'll post some videos soon.

Mov'n' and Shak'n'

Look what I learned this week!



Awww, don't you just love him?

9 Months and Growing!

I went for my 9 month check up today.

They said I'm 24 lbs, 29 1/2 inches--90th percentile. I guess I'm a big guy :)

I have 6 teeth (4 top, 2 bottom) and drool a lot!


I love to eat in my high chair,



play in my bouncer (thanks, Amy!),



and I especially enjoy bath time.



I don't crawl yet, but I still find my way into interesting places!




My mom and dad think I'm very adorable.

Happy Half-Birthday!

Hinckley is 6 months old today. Wow! Does time fly, or what?! Here's to you, mini-man.

Then:

Day after he was born, still in the hospital--


Now:

Happily sitting on our couch



Not so happily sitting on our couch :)


So curious about everything


We love you, Hinckley!

Couponing

I have a couple of great friends who make grand use of coupons to get killer deals at the grocery store. I wanted to learn and asked for some help. (Thanks Michelle and Christina!) Here's a picture of my first big coupon run--

I paid $3.21 for all you see pictured here. I made a small mistake at the register...it would have only cost me $0.81 (tax for the soda). :)



Does anyone need this much junk food? Hee hee, of course not. But if asked to bring treats to anything, you can bet that it will be something in this picture :)

"What is in my mouth?"

Here is Hinckley trying rice cereal for the first time (taken November 2nd, I think). I love the faces he makes. I also love hearing Travis's laugh in the background. What blessings I live with!

(And as a side note--Trav found this great video converter so now we can post our videos! See, we have a great video camera, but it films in JVC's proprietary format. Very hard to work with. No problem anymore! Thanks, honey!)

Tummy Time!

Here is Hinckley at 7 weeks having a good time on his belly. He has started to smile now. If he hadn't stolen our hearts before, we are hopelessly fallen for him now! (The volume is really low...sorry)
