New Alton Photos: Walker and Diaper shots

I am much better!

Still not 100%, but the worst is over. Travis woke up sniffling though. :(
Alton is also almost all better. His croup is gone, but he still blows snot bubbles. :(

He is currently enjoying a steamy bath with Daddy to benefit both of their noses. :)

I have new pictures to post, and I will probably get them up tonight.

I am sick!

I am sick. I have the sniffles and I am all stuffy. :( Who would like to make me some chicken noodle soup and care for my son while I rest and recuperate?

On a more fun note, Alton has a toy pig and sheep. We have named them Bacon and Kebab, or Bob for short. Are we bad parents?

Alton is 7 Months Old!

7th
Month Photo Shoot

My strawberry blonde angel

I finally outsmarted him and put the sign on the floor in
front of him.

He got it anyway

It is getting harder to get him to hold the sign

He looks so serious here

"I wonder if this will taste like that chicken I have
been hearing so much about?"

Daddy is making funny faces for him.

He has the best smile, I am simply convinced. Look at his
dimples!

Non-video post

Things have been crazy around the house. As you can see from my video posts, Alton is learning to walk. Eeeeeeeeek! He crawls some, but he get quickly annoyed if we expect him to sit and play with his toys.

I have been keeping the house vacuumed and while I am not keeping the rest of the house as pristine, I am thankful that the office is clean the carpets are vacuumed. Alton's eye is still slightly gooky, but not anywhere near as bad as it once was. Thank God. I prayed and I prayed and I think it is finally almost clear.

I am thinking about selling a bunch of stuff on Ebay, but the thought of spending all of that time getting it all ready to list, and take pictures and write descriptions of it all is too much! But I am sure that Alton will very quickly learn that cupboards open and cupboards contain stuff. Stuff must be played with! NONE of our cupboards have knobs, so I can't just use those child proofing drawer locks. So I really should just list it all and be rid of it.

Travis is still job hunting. Last night he applied for a position in Minnesota! It snows there. I can't even begin to imagine living somewhere with a climate so different from where we are now.

More Cruising Videos

From the front. Sorry it is sideways!

From the other side. Again, sorry it is sideways.

Alton the Cruiser

We have a cruiser! He will be 7 months old on Saturday.

Isn't it awfully early for him to be doing this? He just started to crawl this weekend!
