Davis' "6 month or so" photo shoot

If any of you follow the links to my friends blogs you would swear that I copy Barkley! The Busby's are some of my best friends and it is so funny because everytime I have something new to blog, I notice she has just posted something similar. Great minds think alike!!! (not to mention our children are only 3 weeks apart, so they are so close with each milestone, fun!!!)

Okay, so I kept saying I would do professional 6 month pictures and then I realized he was way to close to 8 months and really, who pays money for an 8 month photo shoot. So I bought Davis some cute fall outfits, packed him and my camera up and headed out to Watercolor. They have some beautiful photog spots with great lighting a pretty backgrounds. My camera also has a feature that snaps 3 shots really fast, so if you get an eye closed or miss a smile your odds are better to catch them. So 150 shots later, I came out with nearly 50 REALLY GOOD pictures! I posted them on snapfish and made some black and white. Hmmmmmm, should I try to add photographer to my resume' along with the many other titles I am accruing? Nahhhh, but it was fun for an outing. I still have a dressy outfit I want to show him off in, but the sun got to bright and we were both squinting. So here are the results of our "6 month or so" photo shoot in Watercolor. Enjoy!

Monkey wanted a few pictures today too!



Mommy's favorite picture!

Davis has graduated to his BIG BOY carseat :-(

Yes, I am standing up unattended now. Where did time go?

I'd rather play with dirt than silly flowers!

Our New Mobile World!

Wow! Things are changing quickly in the Brown House. First of all, our furniture is now positioned so Davis can have full run of the den. There is now a quilt on the floor covered with toys where there used to be a nice rug. The rug gets in his way though when he gets going in his walker. Here is a very short clip of him in his walker this morning. (Sorry the video is so dark, it was very early this morning.) Yesterday he would only scoot backwards, but needless to say I think he has got it now! He has been playing in it now for an hour. He'll walk over to the dogs and pet them, then walk over to the couch and pet the blankets. "Da-daing" the whole time. He is still not saying momma except for that first day, but I am totally okay with that :-) Of course, everyone is dada... mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, even the dogs. Davis has also picked up clicking. He will click his tongue for about 2 minutes and then laugh hysterically like it is the funniest thing in the word. He clicked for 45 minutes in Best Buy while I was setting up a new phone service. He is so much fun!!!!

Swimming with Grandma and Grandpa Brown

First of all, LOOK at little man's rolls! He is a very healthy eater to say the least. Grandma and Grandpa Brown are here for vacation and invited us over to swim and eat dinner. Davis is a FISH!!! He loves the water and doesn't mind one second if it gets in his face. I guess it is a good thing but on the flip side, I don't want him to get too comfy with the water. I think we are going to start swimming lessons in the next month or so. Anyway, we had such a good time with Mack and Debby! We swam and then ate a great dinner. Davis passed out on the pallet on the floor and then fell right back asleep once we got home. He is spending all day with the grandparents tomorrow! He is so excited. I hope he doesn't wear them out. He is quite the handful these days, but it is so much FUN!
