Daddy is good at reading stories, and mommy's always taking pictures. Posted by Picasa

I like reading with Daddy. This is my favorite book. Posted by Picasa

Now I have two boy cousins. I'm so excited! Posted by Picasa

This is my new cousin, Davis Dreyer. Isn't he cute?! I can't wait to meet him. He and his mommy are at home now doing well. Posted by Picasa

Davis Dreyer

We are proud to announce Graham has a new cousin, Davis Dreyer. Melanie, Tim's sister, gave birth to him last night. I was unable to get his picture up, but keep watching for it as I will try to post it soon. We are so happy for Melanie and Doug and can't wait to meet baby Davis.

Mommy's practicing feeding Jonathan baby food. In a few months, I'll get to eat that stuff. Yum! Posted by Picasa

Mommy, I'm getting sleepy. I need a nap. Posted by Picasa

I like the way Jonathan plays with his toes. I haven't learned how to touch my toes yet. Posted by Picasa

Hey, look at Shelby's nose. It's much longer than ours. Posted by Picasa

Mommy set the timer on the camera. She says taking pictures with babies makes things interesting. Posted by Picasa

We love tummy time! Jonathan's teaching me about zebras. Posted by Picasa

Mommy and Amy decided to dress us in matching outfits. They thought we looked really cute.  Posted by Picasa

Mommy and Daddy just finished giving me my bath. Now I'm ready for bed. Posted by Picasa

My puppy, Shelby, likes Jonathan. He enjoyed chasing her around on his tummy. She was a pretty good sport about it. Soon, I'll be chasing Shelby, too. Right now, I just look at her. Posted by Picasa

I love bathtime, and I love to suck on my hands.  Posted by Picasa

I love playing with my Link-a-doos during a stroller ride. We were at the ice cream shop in this photo. Posted by Picasa

One of my favorite activities is to look at myself and mommy in the mirror. It always makes me smile. Posted by Picasa

Here we are about to walk downtown to eat at a Thai restaurant with Amy and Jonathan. Mommy says the food was yummy, but I didn't get any. Jonathan taught me how to bang on his high chair. Posted by Picasa

My new buddy, Jonathan, acts a little crazy sometimes. I think he gets it from his dad, Jeff. Posted by Picasa

This is my daddy. He's the best daddy in the whole world. Posted by Picasa

I like to sleep in Grandma Perpy's arms. She came in June and gave me lots of hugs and kisses. I have changed a lot since she's seen me. When I see her again, I'm going to give her a big smile. Posted by Picasa

Uncle Tim and Aunt Kimberly came to visit when I was only a week old. They gave me lots of love. Now, they have their own son, Will, to love. I will get to meet Will in September. Posted by Picasa

I love Nana! She helped Mommy take care of me when I came home from the hospital. Mommy says she doesn't know what she would have done without Nana's help. She used to rock me in the middle of the night after Mommy fed me. I can't wait to see her in September. Posted by Picasa

This is Shermie bear. Mommy had it made for Daddy to remind us of my Grandpa Franklin. It's a very special bear. Posted by Picasa

My mommy's best friends from Texas came in July to meet me. Mommy was so glad they came, and I had fun with them, too! She misses them a lot. Posted by Picasa

Mommy and Daddy put this funny hat on me. I'm not sure why but they think it looks cute. Posted by Picasa
