When I try to sit up on my own, I always reach for my toes. Posted by Picasa

Hey, everybody! Do you think I'll be crawling soon? Posted by Picasa

Here I am saying, "Sic 'Em Bears!" Posted by Picasa

Mommy put on my Baylor sweatshirt today in honor of my Grandma Perpy. She's at Baylor this weekend for Homecoming. When I grow up, I want to be a Baylor Bear, too. Posted by Picasa

This is a beautiful crossstitch that my Great Aunt Donna made for me. I wanted everyone to see how nice it looks in my room. Thanks, Aunt Donna, for all your hard work. I can't wait to meet you in Memphis over Thanksgiving! Posted by Picasa

Mommy says I look small in this big high chair. My hair that sticks up helps me look taller, don't you think? Posted by Picasa

Mommy and Daddy decided to see if I was ready to sit in my high chair. I think I did pretty well in it.  Posted by Picasa

I look like I don't like Aunt Marie's kisses, but I really do. She makes me smile and laugh. Posted by Picasa

I had fun with our friends before I had to go take a nap. Posted by Picasa

Joe, Marie's husband, came too. I'm glad we have special friends to share happy times with. Posted by Picasa

Mommy cooked a special lunch to celebrate the day. Her good friends, Marie and Jenn, came over to share it with us. Posted by Picasa

My good friend, Gretchen, all was dedicated today. She tried to hold my hand during the service. I like her a lot! Posted by Picasa

Here I am at church during the baby dedication service. Posted by Picasa

Today has been a special day for our family. Baby dedication took place at church this morning. Mommy and Daddy got me all dressed up and took me up to the front of church. They said they were promising to teach me about Jesus, take me to church, and show me God's love in our home. They said God blessed them by giving me to them, and they want to give me back to God. Posted by Picasa

We're having a great time with Grandpa! Posted by Picasa

My grandpa flew all the way from Texas to visit me. He hasn't seen me since I was 2 months old, so I'm showing him all my new tricks. Posted by Picasa

On Saturday, I took my first trip to a cider mill. It's a fun fall activity here in Michigan. We went with our friends, the Fulks.  Posted by Picasa

Don't we make a cute family? Posted by Picasa

We're about to go drink hot apple cider and eat donuts and caramel apples.  Posted by Picasa

Hey, this pumpkins are pretty cool! Posted by Picasa

They had farm animals at the cider mill. I got to see pigs, chickens, cows, goats, sheep, and ducks. Mommy had shown me pictures, but this is the first time I saw these animals in real life. Posted by Picasa

Our mommies held our faces up for this photo. Posted by Picasa

This is my good buddy, Emma. She's a cute black cat. Posted by Picasa

This is my girlfriend, Gretchen. She's a scarecrow. Posted by Picasa

I'm a little pumpkin face. Posted by Picasa
