On to Nationals....

Last night the Longhorns clinched their spot in the BCS championship game. Jay went nuts, it was almost embarrassing to watch :) We went over to our friends, The Tapins to watch and have fun. Their youngest is Aislin (pronounced Ash Lynn just a Irish spelling) and she is 4 months older than Lane. The kids played a bit before they both went to bed. I LOVE this age! So cute, really starting to talk, and I've noticed that Lane is starting to try and make me laugh. I just can't get enough squeezes in the day from him. We are really looking forward to seeing everyone over the Holidays. Until then.....

So fascinated that he can pull up like Aislin and "bang" on the couch

dadadadadad blah blah blah

Lane has been practicing his new sounds with his mouth in full force this week. On Thursday he started to say Dada but today it was non stop. Dadadada blah blah blah. no matter what he was up to he was saying dada. He would take his bottle out of his mouth and call it dada, he would crawl over to his favorite Tupperware cabinet and open it and start blah blahing to his containers. Our kid cracks me up. It is so exciting and interesting to watch how much a child can change all within 24 hours.

Brrrrrrr.

It has just started to get super chilly down here this morning and their is a high chance of SNOW tomorrow! Lew has been staying bundled up in all his warm fleece outfits and fluffy hats. I wish I had his comfy clothes

Lane @ 32 Weeks

We had meant to do these chair pictures next to his teddy once a month but have really been slacking. This is Lane at 32 weeks old. We can't really keep the bear next to him anymore, he just goes for it.

Yee Haw Ya'll

A Couple weekends ago Lane and I went up to Dallas to visit the Benton's. Emme has already grown much since her birth. You can grab her leg and not feel like it will snap. She is just a beautiful baby and has the sweetest face you've ever laid eyes on. That Saturday Jay's unit performed a demonstration at the Fort Worth Stockyards. Lane sported his First Cav outfit with his new pair of John Deere boots. He looked A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E. Jay did a good job on his horse demo considering they were performing in a MUCH smaller arena then they or the horses are used to. They had to slow down their speed quite a bit. He had a large fan base there. Nana, Patricia, Amy, Allison, Tiffany, Jackson, Allena, and Frank all came to watch the show. Both Jackson and Lane are huge fans of the horses and cowboys. They couldn't take their eyes off'em. Later on that weekend Lane had his first casting call. He has his own modeling agent and she informed us that this will one of many in the future. He did well and gave many great Zoolander faces and poses. That about wraps up our big weekend. Hope all is well.

Look what I can do, and won't stop doing

Put him in the crib and he will instantly start trying to stand up. Here is Lane (or gerber baby as Nana calls him) standing in his crib at her house.

Turkey in tha Straw... hee hee haw....

What a great Thanksgiving weekend we had. We went to Arlington, and stayed Wed- Sun and were sad to leave. Thanksgiving Day we went over to my Aunt Sara's house in Lewisville so Lane could meet my cousin Ailie and her kiddos for the first time. Olivia is my cousin Ailie's oldest and is just so pretty and so well behaved. She is 4 years old and calls her mom, mother! I thought that was hysterical. The moment she saw Lane she said, "Lane is so HANDSOME". I thought that was just precious. Her little boy Ian is a cutie as well, he was tired when we got there but was just too cute tromping around in his big shoes. We had a delish meal with the Bunte's and spent the rest of our trip visiting with friends and family. Looking forward to seeing everyone over Christmas break. Take Care
