banks' first snow

well it's finally snowing here after numerous promises made by the weathermen throughout the season. we had to get banks out and take some pictures of him. after we took the one of him as a "snow angel" chuck said he was waiting on d.s.s. to show up at our front door. i thought it was funny :)







this one is a recent pic of him.

johnny jump up

Mimi and G-Daddy brought over the johnny jump up for Banks to try out. He LOVES it!!! He usually bounces a lot more, but i just happened to get this part on video where he was smiling, then my memory card was full. Yes, there's a toilet in the background. It's the only door downstairs that we can hang the johnny jump up from.

banks rolls over

banks rolled over for the first time today, YEAH!!!
he hasn't mastered rolling from his back to his stomach just from the stomach to the back.

here's the video:

love ems

i mean banks is the best baby ever. we are so blessed to have such a wonderful child in our lives. he sleeps well, eats well, laughs all the time, watches cartoons while mommy is doing the dishes and is the most precious thing ever. chuck took some cute pics of me and banks this past weekend that i wanted to post.

happy valentine's day!

banks wanted to wish everyone a happy valentine's day!
thanks mimi for the cute outfit and balloon you got him ;)
love y'all!

cereal

banks tried cereal today for the first time. it was hilarious because he didn't know what to do with it once it entered his mouth. we'll keep trying until he figures it out.











He's also rolling over to his side a lot, so hopefully he'll be rolling over soon. i'll keep you posted on that!!!

toys

My mom and dad bought banks this fun bouncy - jumpy thing that he loves. he's still a little small for it but still fun to get him used to it. My sister and mom bought him the baby einstein play yard thingy at the end of the video. He's is very much into it!!!!
