A New Year...

With the new year we have seen Davis reach some new milestones and develop some new interests.  For one thing, he is CRAWLING now!  Help!  Don't get me wrong, I'm so proud of him and I'm glad he has finally reached this lifelong goal of his.....but gone are the days of, "Mommy's gonna run to the kitchen; I'll be right back!"  This child is into everything.  He's really curious and he loves to touch anything in sight.  His fascination du jour is the drawer pull on the desk I'm sitting at right now.  It's hard metal and makes such a nice clinging sound when he grabs it and lets go. 

Davis has also been really into cups lately.  He wants a sip (or four) of whatever his dad and I are drinking.  Don't worry, we only give him the really nutritious stuff like water and sweet tea. 

In an effort to get back in shape, I've been training with Jillian Michaels each morning (well, with her DVD), and I'm already feeling a little better about myself...maybe because I'm getting off my lazy hinie.  I won't lie, I don't think I will ever think it's "fun" to exercise in front of a TV in my den, but having a baby rolling and scooting and crawling under my feet and chasing my shoes sure does make it more interesting!  Ready for some warmer weather so we can take it outside...

Here are a few recent pictures.  Pardon the quality, as these were all taken with my phone.  I think I used the camera too much over the holidays because I haven't even taken it out since the snow.

D still loves carrots!

First time sitting in a real high chair and not in the carrier at a restaurant...at La Rancherita, of course

D's first redneck gear, thanks to Uncle Morgan
