Fall 2008 Pictures (part 2)

Here are some more of the pictures from today.

 

Fall 2008 Pictures

Here are some pictures of Garrett's fall pictures (will post more after he goes to bed tonight). I found this program where I can make collages and make some pretty neat changes to pics...so I'm playing with that for this post. He is getting so big....hard to believe...but our baby is growing up :)

 

Smith Mountain Lake

Today we were invited to go visit our friends Dave and Marcia at Smith Mountain Lake!Garrett had his first boat ride, and fed fish for the first time!! Bill and Carleane were also there visiting. We had a great time as you will be able to tell!! :)

The beautiful view

Garrett in his life vest.....as you can tell he wasn't very happy!


Helping Bill drive the boat

He hated the vest so much I guess he figured the best use was to sleep with it on....it had a built in pillow!!

Feeding the GIGANTIC fish


The second life vest was alittle bit better. Playing turtle!!

What a look....and he even has his tongue stinking out!! I would hate to know what he was thinking (yes, I was taking the picture!!)

Garrett and Daddy


Garrett with the fish that Dave caught....poor fishy! Yes, Dave (and Kevin) let Garrett touch the fish (eeww)....and while I was up at the house they let Garrett touch a worm (double eeww).....ugh, I am not cut out for some of this boy stuff!! :)



This chair is Dave and Marcia's grandsons....but Garrett chilled out in it for a while. So cute!

Garrett's new favorite toy

This cracks us and Garrett up. We got a package in the mail the other day-so I put him in the box and started running through the house with him in it (what a workout!!). I had no idea what I was getting us into....he loved it....esp. when we would get close to our dog Olan and Olan would run away. I got it on tape tonight while Kevin was giving him his nightly ride. It's alittle dark but you can hear him just giggling and laughing away!! It's the best laugh in the WHOLE world!

Havin' Fun and Self Feeding

Garrett is all about feeding himself lately. He will fuss and not take anything I am trying to feed him...but if I put it down he will do it himself. I have been hesitant to pull out spoons and forks for him to use-mostly for selfish reasons (the mess)....but he is forcing me to teach him how to do it on his own. He did pretty good with his yogurt tonight. Once it was gone I let him play/practice on his own!!
