Put on your happy face

David seriously is growing into such a handsome little man. He is beginning to look less like a baby. I can't believe that we are not even two months away from him being 1. He also decided to say "MAMA!" on Friday night. It just melts my heart when he says it.

Fish Out of Water

I had a "proud mom" moment today when David decided to...

CRAWL!! Haha, these videos aren't super great (I'll bust out the video camera soon), but I had to capture it.

Ducks, Grass and some sunshine!

I am loving this weather! I hope and pray it stays around...and longer for more than a day or two. We've been going on walks and sitting out in the grass playing. Even though he was wearing pants, he got a couple of bug bites on his upper thighs.

This is my favorite picture from yesterday, I just love him!

Father and Son

It's no secret that Mark is a huge Cardinals fan. Vivian made a nice Cardinals blanket for the Distelhorst family. Mark likes it...and David loves it. He likes rolling around in it/on it.

10 months

Oh my gosh, where has the time gone? If you had asked me 8 months ago how I was going to do this, I would told you I would have been fine and that David would keep me busy. And he sure does, but I am grateful to be able to stay home with him.

David is 10 months old, which in and of itself is exciting, but it is even more thrilling because it means that Mark will be on his way home for R&R in roughly 7 weeks! Ahh!

I just love that face! It is hard to not start the day happy when you wake up to this! I also love those thighs. Haha. David now weighs 21 pounds...he is growing and closer and closer to crawling everyday!

Conference 2011

Conference is so great and has even better messages to help us remember our Savior is always there for each of us, no matter what. David rolled around, rocked on the knees, enjoyed some lunch, but I'm sure somewhere in all of that, he listened too :-)

Fortunately, Katie was able to provide ample entertainment, with her watch...

...to her hair

Hope you all are enjoying your weekend, lets hope Spring decides to make an appearance soon, and stay around :-)

Splish Splash...

...I was taking a bath...with my cousin! Kennedy came over tonight while Amy went to see a friends play. Normally when Kennedy comes over and I am giving David a bath she points upstairs and says "ba ba." Well, tonight was her lucky night because she and David got to take a bath together. They were pretty funny and seemed to love to have someone else in the tub to play with.

Too bad we couldn't get them both to look at the camera at the same time.

David has been trying so hard to crawl, and I am hopeful he will get all the mechanics figured out in the next little bit. Keep in mind, Mark didn't crawl until he was 10 or 11 months old. Seeing as how David is a mini Mark, and is following in his footsteps, I have a feeling he is going to do the same.

In between trying to crawl and getting his top teeth, David has also been battling a double ear infection. Poor kid. Fortunately, he has been pretty happy with little spouts of fussiness.
