Visiting Santa

We went to visit Santa at the Willow Bend Mall. They have a great set up with a area to play in fake snow while waiting to see Santa. After seeing Santa they also have an area to take a family photo. It turn out to be a great photo opportunity! Landon was a little fussy that day but he did ok with Santa. He has never developed any stranger danger and was excited to go to Mrs. Clause. He was a little more intimidated my Santa but did fine. We are very excited about Landon's first Christmas!

Landons First Thanksgiving

We had Landons First Thanksgiving with lots of family. We started out going to Crockett to visit Granny and Paw Paw Platt. Landon had lots of fun palying with the news ads and breaking all the rules he has at home.

Next we headed to in Houston  for Thanksgiving day with the Reeves. Landon meet Many relatives for the first time and had a great time with Granny and Paw Paw-Reeves. Landon had Turkey babyfood I made in hornor or the holiday. I think he enjoyed all the attention and  time with family members!

On  the way home we went through Arlington to visit Grandma and Grandpa Landon enjoyed looking at the Christmas lights outside

Baby Dedication

November 14 Landon was dedicated to the Church. We attend Prestonwood Baptist church in Plano. Landon made his impression at his dedication. During the pastor speech to the families and babies Landon yelled out and the pastor stopped his message to talk to Landon. He made jokes about him saying amen. We were told this was a first for the pastor of Prestonwood, no other baby has ever interrupted him. That's our boy!

Rangers in the World Series

We had to support the Rangers in the World Series. Go Rangers!!

Halloween

Halloween was fun with our little Lion. We called him Landon the Lion. We had fun at Halloween parties and trick or treating.

Time to catch up

For those who follow my blog. It has been a while. My computer broke in October and I have been waiting to get a new one. Thanks for your patience while I update all the events that have happen.

Big Orange Pumpkin Farm

Monday we went to the Big Orange Pumpkin Farm in Celina. It was fun to try and get pictures of him with all the pumpkins and decor. Landon also cut his second tooth on Monday so he wasn't the easiest to photograph that day but we still managed to get some great pictures!
Enjoy

7 Months old

Our little baby is getting older and older and we can't believe how fast the time has gone! He is a full blown crawler now and can make it across the room with out stopping.
The last month has been a whirlwind of crazy events. It started with the Similac recall. Landon was really sick for about 10 days from formula that apparently had beetle parts in it. After he was fully recovered he was very hungry until the throwing up began. We thought it was teething but there has now been a recall on Kroger green peas. I used Kroger brand green peas to make his baby food that he was eating when the throwing up began. According to the Kroger website the Texas Kroger’s were not a part of this recall.... Leaving us not knowing if the throwing up was a reaction to teething or peas. We are wondering what the odds are that he would get both items in 1 month that were recalled!
He spent the weekend at Grandmas and Grandpa’s last weekend and this weekend. I took him to Arlington last weekend because Frank had a fever and we didn’t want Landon to get it on top of all his sicknesses recently. This weekend was a scheduled trip so we could go to the fair and hang out together. It was greatly enjoyed but we are ready to have him back and miss him a lot.

Tomorrow we are going to the pumpkin farm in Celina. Stay tune for some great fall pictures!

First Tooth

Landon has his first tooth. It started Thursday early morning (Oct. 8th) Landon was fussing and when we went to check on him he had thrown up all over his sheets. This continued until about 7:00. As the day continued he didn't want to eat and threw up 1 more time in the early afternoon. We thought he was sick again and couldn't figure out what was wrong. We told a few people about what had happen and they told us he may be teething. Sure enough Friday night his first tooth broke skin. He never got a fever or diarrhea but he did lose his appetite and vomited. He is finally getting back to himself but I worry this will happen every time he is getting a new set of teeth. The good news is we now know what is wrong and know it will soon improve.

Cute Picture

A cold front came through and thought its not cold enough for the hat to be needed we tried it on for a picture anyways. He is such a cute boy!
