For Giggles!


I took this picture from my new phone yesterday (which explains the grainy quality) and I can't help myself from sharing it. I sent it to a couple of people via e-mail and then I realized it was too adorable for only a couple of people. If I remember correctly, Harrison was cracking himself up. He is really into that these days. We will be riding around in the car and he will just be laughing to himself. He also may have been laughing at the plastic bag in his hand. Who knows anymore?

So Cute...



Harrison loves bath time...especially in his duckie! I like the duck too. He can't slip and slide everywhere. He is like trying to catch a wet noodle.

A New Instrument


I had a lot of work to do tonight, so Adam said that he would entertain Harrison for an hour for me. I decided to sit at our kitchen counter so I could watch the boys play together. Two minutes after I turned Harrison over to Adam, Harrison had a pot and spoons in his hands. I'm not sure he had to give him those items when we have plenty of toys, plus we have a piano that makes plenty of noise. Anyway, they were too cute and a BIG distraction.

Cute Doesn't Always Get You a Win


If the outcome of the Clemson game was determined by how cute Harrison dresses on game day, they would win every time. Unfortunately, the outcome isn't decided that way. Either way, Harrison looked great!

New Year, New...







Tooth! Actually, two teeth! I thought this day would never come. The night after Christmas, my mom had just finished putting Harrison down for bed and she said to me, "I wouldn't be surprised if Harrison has a tooth tomorrow." I kind of dismissed that because I have been thinking that for the past four months. Sure enough, the next morning, I rubbed his gums, and there was a dagger just beneath the gum. I couldn't believe my mom was right. I guess that has to happen every now and then. I was really excited to see his tooth, so I thought the next day would bring a little white tooth. Not true...the tooth under the gum, just got sharper. I guess I just thought that it would spring up in the middle of the night and be a full-fledged tooth the next day (sort of like a zit). No dice. Anyway, just over a week has passed and I can actually see two little white teeth. They are still barely out of the gum, but I am so excited to see them. It certainly helps to explain a lot of irritability in my sweet boy.
On another note, we discovered while we were in Charleston that Harrison loves corn on the cob. We made Frogmore Stew for some of our friends in Colorado a couple of days ago and we have a lot of leftover corn. Adam and I would never eat all of it, but Harrison will, certainly do a number to it. It takes him about 30 minutes to lick it clean. It is rather impressive, and messy. Notice the corn in Harrison's neck in the pictures.

Harrison & Nana on Christmas











Harrison's First Christmas


Can you tell Adam is making a horse sound?


Wrapping Paper Bliss!

This hat is perfect for our Colorado weather!

Christmas Day was full of lots of fun. He opened presents, played with wrapping paper, and played with wrapping paper. Did I mention he played with wrapping paper? Fortunately, we all knew he would show little interest in gifts, so no one went overboard for him. My mom actually wrapped up a used paper towel roll. We also went up to my grandma's house where our entire family gathers for Christmas festivities. I am 100% sure that Harrison was overwhelmed by the noise level at that house. Here are some pictures from Christmas day. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures after we left the Brantley's house, so all of our pictures are only from Christmas morning.
