Our little helper...elephants...and a new cabinet

Last week Landon was such a good helper to mommy and daddy. He loves helping with the dishes, whether they are clean or dirty, he enjoys taking them in and out of the dishwasher. He has been such a big climber these days, here he climbed up on the dishwasher door to get the dishes. (I have to admit, it was pretty cute)


Here he is helping daddy take the diaper box out.


He by know means was helping here, but rather making a huge mess. He loves going in the bathroom and getting the toliet paper off the roll. I was just a little too slow this day...he got the whole roll off. He was having such a good time. :)



We ended up keeping the diaper box b/c he and dad were having so much fun with it. He likes to put things in it and move it around the house.


The circus was in town last weekend and one of my friends called me to tell me to come down and see the elephants come off the train. So, like any crazy mom who would want there child to see the elephants, we went. It was so cute and all Landon could say was 'WOW'




Here Landon is hiding underneath our desk, he was so excited when I found him.



The last thing...Llon finished our tv cabinet!!! For graduation Landon got his dad rockband. The problem was that the rockband was sitting out all the time and Landon was always getting into it. We looked and looked for a cabinet with doors that it would fit in...we had no luck. So a couple of months ago Llon decided to build one...and here it is. It is absolutely beautiful! I am so proud and happy that it is done. He did such a good job that now I want matching end tables...some day...maybe after ortho school. :)

Is it really September...

Where did August go? I cannot believe that it is already September...getting colder...rainy weather...Fall is coming. I have been terrible about taking pictures of Landon this month, so I don't have many to share..sorry. This past month we have done a lot of traveling. We visited my parents in Little Rock; the Briscoes and Philips in Longview; my brothers and grandparents in Tulsa; and went to the lake with some friends. We don't have a lot trips planned this month, but before we know it the holidays will be here and we'll be traveling again. The good thing is we enjoy traveling and Landon usually does pretty well. This past month Landon has gotten 2 of his molars in, both on the left side (one top and one bottom) and soon to have a matching set on the other side. We all will be glad when they come in. :) Landon is also saying a few more words...well they kind of all sound the same...but we'll give him credit. He is saying ball and actually goes and gets the ball. He can say baby, wow, woe, wee...haha I'm cracking up at myself that I'm writing this. He isn't interested in walking at all, he is still doing the usually walking along everything and walking holding your hand. The big thing that he is into is climbing...AHHHH...it's making me nervous. Just yesterday he was sitting in his highchair just eating like a big boy and when I turned around he was climbing out of it. He was actually standing on the tray. Scared me...and when I ran over there to get him he just started laughing, like it was some game. He climbs all over his toys and trys to climb in his baby bed. I usually have a blanket, small pillow, and his dinosaur in his bed. Well he likes to pile them up and stand on top them all....I just know he'll be climbing over the side in no time. Here are a few pics of our big boy.

Here is Landon ready to go to the Royals game. Our friends Mike and Camille gave him this book for his bday. He loved looking at it at the game. Thanks guys!

Landon loving his bananas

So the other day Llon was taking a shower with Landon and when I went in to get him, all I could see what his little head peaking over the top and yelling 'momma'...priceless.

Landon just loves his little car that grandma Leota gave him for his bday. He really likes it when daddy runs down the driveway.
