Fall Time Fun!

Jude is growing and changing so much. He is walking everywhere and making his opinion known more often. :) He definitley has a mind of his own and tells us what he wants when he wants it. :) He is tons of fun, still loves going to the park and being out and about. He waves at everyone and points his little finger at everything. very cute. :) He had a little virus last week, but he is all better now. He really enjoyed helping decorate the x-mas tree. He also loved the holiday parade in downtown Arlington. He was amazed at all the lights and music. It was a great time! He loves to dance. the video below is of him dancing to some music videos.

Some of Jude's favorite toys :)

Sick Jude. He is all better now. :)

Thanksgiving-2012

For Thanksgiving this year, we decided to go out to dinner to celebrate with Teta and Jedo. We had a very nice dinner at III Forks. It was a great evening. Here are some pics of the fun!

Random Fun!!

Here are some random pics of fun in Jude's life. Now, that he is walking, he loves being out and about, but he is not always so excited about being in his stroller or tricycle. :) He wants to walk everywhere. 

Jude at Academy in his hunting chair. :)

Fun in the mall stroller since we forgot ours. :)

Jude walking around the mall in his Columbia outfit from dad. 

We needed a little break so here he is in a table with a hole in the middle at the mall. :) Kept him entertained for about 10 minutes. that is pretty good. :)

Laughing it up with daddy. 

Jude's 1st Haircut!

Jude got his first real haircut on 11/16/12. He was not very happy at first, but then he settled down and starting playing with the really cool car he was sitting in. Overall, it was not too bad. :) Here are some pics of the fun. 

Playing with some toys while waiting for his turn. 

Not off to a very good start. :)

A bit better, but still not happy. 

This is the "Please get me out of here, mom" look. :)

All better once he realized all was fine and that the car he was sitting in makes noises. :)

What a big boy. 

All is good.
