Do we have a future Tiger Woods?

Bubba and Bill (Carleane and Bill!) got Garrett his first set of golf clubs for Christmas. They are Mickey Mouse Clubhouse golf clubs-and they are the cutest thing ever. His shots not the best yet....but he's working on it!! :)

 

 

 

Playing with new toys

Garrett got SO many new toys for Christmas...he is having such a good time playing with them all

His new block table also converts to a hard top so he can color on it!! How fun!


Looking at his new Mickey Mouse books that Bubba and Bill gave him


Bubba and Bill also got his a grocery basket full of groceries. I taught him this morning to "play eat them" so now he goes around smacking his lips while playing with them!!

BANANA!!!

He loves his new Mickey Mouse house that us, Mimi, and Papa got him. I didn't think he understood the concept of "playing" to much yet....but I was wrong. He takes the figurines and plays with them in the house, and even tries to get them to face eachother like they are talking!

Garrett riding his new horse

At first he was scared...now he likes it!! After you watch the video I think you should know that all is well....Kevin caught him and he didn't fall!! :)

Christmas at MiMi and Papa's

There are more pics from Mimi and Papa's that Mom took but I can't upload them for some reason so I will post more later...but here are some to start with!!

 

Christmas Morning

 

Merry Christmas!!

Santa was good to the Jones family today! We had a fun filled day with presents, food, and family. There were a TON of pictures taken today - however I am feeling alittle "under the weather" this evening. I will post pictures tomorrow when I hopefully feel better!! We love and miss everyone....and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!! :)

Our future football player

Garrett had been tackling Mickey Mouse ALL weekend-of course when I got the camera out he wouldn't do it on his own-it took a little bit of persuasion....but not much!!!

We've been Elf'd!!

Cut and paste this address to see us!! Merry Christmas :)

Santa visit & new shoes

Needless to say....Garrett didn't like Santa this year. He was petrified! Atleast now we have a Christmas family portrait!! :)



Here are Garrett's new shoes. They are so cute :)

Garrett's very own Mickey Mouse

While shopping yesterday Bill saw this at Lowes a decided that Garrett had to have it. Yes, it is a life size (well 2 ft tall) Mickey Mouse in a Santa suit!, but wait that isn't even the best part....it sings two Christmas songs! I know what your thinking...too cute right?, yea, we did to...only it sings by motion....and the slightest motion sets it off. Ok, a 17 month old, 1 cat, and 2 dogs....why do I have a feeling we will be hearing these 2 songs alot??!! Owell, Garrett does love it and it is quite cute :) Thank you Bill and Bubba :)

Sunday Football!!

Garrett has a new love for football! He loves to watch it every Sunday with Kevin- he really likes when there is a touchdown b/c he throws his arms up in the air like he is doing in the pic...and we have to yell "TOUCHDOWN"....or he gets mad!! :) He was given this Carolina Panthers jersey last night-and even though Daddy didn't like it I put it on him (Kevin is a redskins fan!!) Bill-I knew you would love it!! :)

 

Ba"NAna"!!!

Garrett's new word!! :)

First Haircut

Well....we did it.....we cut his hair!! And what an experience. The pictures show how he liked it-haha.

 

The final result

The barber didn't do half bad! He looks like such a big boy now!!

 

Our handsome little man

I was looking through some pictures this afternoon of Garrett's birthday party...it's amazing how much he had change in the short 4 months since then. He is getting so big, so fast-and starting to do new and amazing things daily. His new "word"...balloon. Of course it doesn't sound like balloon...but we know what it is-we no longer can go to a grocery store without a balloon (or we have to wave bye-bye to them and blow them a kiss if that particular store doesn't have free ones to give out!!). Anyway, here are some pictures I took at Maw-Maw's today-Sunday has become our day of picture taking....I'm trying to get some good ones for our Christmas card this year!

 

 

 

 

 
 
 

Happy Halloween

From the most adorable monkey EVER!! :)

 

My handsome man!

I realize I already posted this picture...but I wanted to share what changes I made to it!! It's like I'm a professional!! ha,ha...just kidding :)
 

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!
