Our morning breakfast conversation

Crazy Weather

What crazy weather we are having here in North Carolina. Today is a BEAUTIFUL day! Suppose to get up in the 70's-so we are headed to Chapel Hill to watch a baseball game!! GO HEELS!! However, today is a completely different scene than what we woke up to Monday morning. We had about 5 inches of snow. It was beautiful-although Garrett didn't like it so much (I think it was to deep). Anyway here are some picture I took while Kevin drove me to work that morning (yes, it was like he was driving Ms. Daisy!!).





Here is one Kevin took during the day when he tried to get Garrett to play...notice NO GLOVES (not smart Daddy!!). I was talking to Kevin while he was taking these...his comment to me was "I think his hands are cold"...well NO DUH!!!!

Garrett's first show

We took Garrett to see Disney's Playhouse Disney Live today. In the show are all the characters from the morning shows on the Disney Channel. Garrett loves to watch all those shows so when I heard about this coming I knew we had to go! :) Garrett had a great time :)


The little einsteins

Winnie the Pooh

Handy Mandy

Playing with his new toys during the intermission (yes, for a 1 hr show there was a 20 min. intermission)


Long awaited....MICKEY MOUSE!! *for the record Daisy and Pluto were not in the show-I was very upset that not all the clubhouse friends were included :( I told Garrett maybe they were sick (Daisy is one of his favorites and he was asking for her :( )

Garrett's new raincoat!

I have been looking FOREVER for Garrett a raincoat....and I found one last night!! I think it is the cutest thing ever...and we are having a rainy weekend-so I found it just in time :)

"Garrett, can you go get a tissue for your nose?"

This is what I discovered after asking Garrett that question this afternoon!!
(sorry for the poor picture quality-I wanted to hurry up and take a picture and the closest thing was my phone!!)

The next Derek Jeter??!!

It was suppose to be cloudy and rainy all day...but I guess our weather men got it wrong! The sun was out this morning so Garrett and Daddy went outside to use his new T-Ball set. I got this for Kevin for valentines day (I know it doesn't make much since b/c it's really for Garrett...but Kevin and I have everything we need-so the thought of this gift was he can have some Daddy and Garrett time). Garrett was having so much fun...although I don't think he quite knows each sport individually. One minute he was hitting it off the tee, the next minute trying to golf with it, the next kicking the ball like a soccer ball. Well, atleast he will be well rounded!! :)

Sitting on the potty!!

I bought this potty for Garrett about a month ago. Not that I think he is actually ready for potty training- but I thought having the potty and having him get used to it was a good idea. Garrett has REFUSED to sit on the potty. He has liked sticking his toys in there to go "potty"-but that is as far as we have gotten. We recently couldn't find his snack-trap that we put his goldfish in for him-then one day I saw it in his potty!! Anyway-tonight I finally got him to sit on the potty....I know clothes on....but hey it's a step!!! What a big boy we have!!


And what did it take for him to sit on it you might ask..........he loves to sit one things (a little weird I know!) so he put some of Bentley's toys (we are dog sitting for Mom and Dad this weekend) in his potty-I told him to sit on them.....VIOLA!!! How easy was that....here are the toys in the potty!! :)

Our Computer is Fixed!!

Here are pictures from the snow earlier this week. Garrett was afraid at first...but then he had a good time playing in it. I only wish we had more time(I was leaving for work when these were taken).

If you click to enlarge this picture-he has got the cutest smile on his face-this was taken after he had time to realize that this cold white stuff is fun after all!!

It Snowed Today!!...

...but I don't have pics to put up :(. Our computer is "sick" and is being worked on. We hope to have it back up and running later this week - so I will be sure to post the pics when I can. Garrett was afraid at first...but then loved the "no" (snow)!!! We tried to build a "noman" (snowman) but the snow was to fluffy :(, maybe next time. It was a beautiful sight to wake up to :)

Dancing

Garrett got this toy that goes on the fridge for Christmas. The real purpose of this toy is to teach matching, animals with their sounds, and colors. The animals are cut in half and he has to pick which two go together and put them in the toy-then it tells you what it is etc. Anyway, he doesn't "get" any of that yet - but he has figured out that if you press the little frog up top it sings "country" songs. He loves to push it and just dance as we are getting meals ready. He definitely doesn't have much rhythm!!

New Outfit

This is one of Garrett's new outfits that he got for Christmas. This one is from Aunt Sandra and Uncle Rick. I thought it was too cute to not take a picture and post it! :)

 

 

 

TACKLE

As I have previously posted Garrett loves football...and tackling. Now he tackles EVERYTHING...even his new guitar!! Why do we feel we are going to get a note sent home from daycare saying "your son has been tackling the other kids"??!!

 

If Daddy can play Guitar Hero... so can I

Kevin got Guitar Hero for our Wii with his Christmas money. Now he thinks he is some kind of big rock star (ha,ha) and is addicted to the game. Thanks to Mimi and Papa Garrett now how his own "guitar" for guitar hero. It's Elmo...and he loves it!!

 

Watching for which notes he needs to hit next

 

 

 

Happy New Year!!

We had a great start to 2009! Gran, Aunt Sandra, and Uncle Rick came down for a visit today & we did our Christmas with them! We had so much fun and are so happy they were able to come visit!!
