Messy Spaghetti
He is eating spaghetti and he was only dirty around his mouth and then I look down for 2 seconds and look back up and he had it all over around his eye. He loved it so much. It's so funny to watch him suck the noodles in his mouth. He does get kind of frustrated sometimes because he can't get all of the noodles in his mouth but he still loves it.

I found this little piano at a family dollar store for his birthday and he loves it so much. When I was checking out and it was in the bag he kept trying to lean over to get it out of the bag. Then I got him in his car seat and he wouldn't sit still because he wanted it on his lap to play with, so finally I put it on his lap. He loves to play the piano at home. Especially with me on my lap and when he starts to play he will start to sing. I will record it one of these times. He is going to be a great pianist and a singer and I guess sports. LOL

Picture time!
Andrew loves his baths. Every time it's filling up he helps me get his clothes off as fast as he can so he can get in. It's so cute!
He got this piano for Christmas and loved it. He only likes his toys for about 5 minutes and then he is done with them.
He LOVES to read his books! Ever since he was able to turn the pages himself he enjoys reading so much more! I read a book to him at nights before he goes to bed and he loves it.

Andrew's Adventures
As of last night Andrew decided to pull himself up to stand and hang onto the garbage can. Luckily it didn't fall....until this morning. He did the same thing and then right when I turned around he and the garbage can were on the floor. The garbage can landed on top of him and things went everywhere. He did hit his head pretty hard on the floor. I felt so bad but at the same time I had to kind of laugh because he is just learning to explore with everything! We have a little table that has a little drawer and last week he pulled himself up to stand to reach on top of it and the whole thing came down with him. Luckily that didn't land on top of him but it sure scared him really bad. I love the fact that he is learning so much right and exploring so much but it was very hard some days. The days I just want to get so much done but never do because he is crawling up my legs. But those are the days that I realize to just put everything on hold and to just hold him and play with him. I end up on loving those days! His birthday is coming up and I have been planning his birthday since last month! I know I'm crazy but I don't want to be doing things last minute. Like deep cleaning my house which the spring time is coming anyways and I might as well do it now. I am so excited for him to turn one! It was so crazy how fast time fly's! I love my little Andrew so much! I am so grateful for all that he teaches me! Love you Andrew!

Trip to St.George
We left for St.George Friday morning. We were able to stay at Chad's Aunt's house that they have as a second house down there. It is a very nice home. We went to dinner that night with my brother's and there families & Chad's brother and family that came down as well to Red Robin. It was a lot of fun to be with my brother's that we don't get to see very often. Saturday morning we got up and went and saw some homes. My favorite home was this house. It had 15,053 square feet. It had 8 bedrooms and 6 baths. It had a big pool in the back with a cave that had a hot tub with a kiddie pool and tv's of course, Also two slides. The cost for this home was 2.9 million! Holy cow! It have the basketball court and theater and racket ball court and golf tee thing and a rock climbing wall. It was so much fun but too many stairs and I would hate to keep that house cleaned!! We were kind of bummed this year that there were only like two homes out of 26 that we liked and was worth seeing.
We didn't really do much for Valentine's on that day BUT Chad and I went to dinner last weds and had his dad & Cindy watch Andrew. It was very nice to get out and eat some yummy food! We also wrote each other "love letters". We do it every year. I love it! Chad thinks it's cheesy that I call them that but it's true. That's what they are called. We had a great Valentine's weekend!

Little Andrew
So our computer still has the virus. I can't post any pictures just yet but will soon. As for now I just wanted to talk about Andrew. He is teething and has one eye tooth and is getting the other eye tooth. He doesn't have his two front teeth yet either so it looks funny. But I love it! He is 11 months old in two weeks. He is getting into everything more and more and is so tired of his toys. I have to try to come up with new things everyday to entertain him so he isn't crawling up my legs. Which I normally just get pans and things from the kitchen and he loves it all. He loves to get into Bentley's dog food and water and so I put it on the table and then poor Bentley doesn't get any food or water all day because I had forgotten about it! I feel so bad. Andrew is trying to learn to crawl up the stairs which is not good. I love watching him explore something new everyday! It is the most fun thing in the world right now! When he knows he is in trouble and i say his name and look at him he will smile and wave and try to be funny. It's so cute! When we go to the store he waves to everyone that he sees. I love it because he makes everyone's day even people we don't know. I love my little Andrew so much! He is such a joy to our family.

Okay all, I know it has been awhile since I did a post and recent pictures of Andrew but i have a good reason! Our computer has had a virus on it and we can't seem to fix it and so now we are trying to download everything off of it to take it in to get fixed and then get it back and re-download everything. Fun huh? As soon as that is done then I can put some way cute recent pictures of Andrew. By the way, there has been at least three people that I know of that has had a huge virus on their computer so everyone watch out and be cautious.
