A year of Truman

He walked all around last night

Truman has been able to take steps since 2 days before he was 10 months old. He has very slowly decided to take some independent, non coached, steps for about a month now. On Saturday, at Mema's house he seemed like he might take off but only did for short distances. Last night, at my grandparent's house, he started walking all over the place. He still can't stand himself up on his own, he has to pull up, but he was everywhere. I wonder what today holds. I can't believe he is going to be ONE on Sunday.

Here are some pictures from the past week.







Sitting in the Foof, watching a movie together

He is such a boy. He strung my pot tops together with a jump rope.

He LOVES grits.

We went to Fairhope on Friday night to eat at Wintzell's. After dinner we went to the pier.










Sunset on the Pier


This old lady was almost 93. She loves to fish here. She has 69 grandchildren.


Sunday morning we took some pictures on the beach. The lense was foggy.


We tried to get the boys to behave so we gave them a stick. They fought over it.

Truman is crazy

Truman was tired due to lack of sleep today (he has a very naughty brother) and so I put him to bed a little early. He was so ready to go...until I put him in the bed. 45 minutes later he was still screaming. I took him out of bed and sat in the chair with him. We rocked and he kept repeating "Doh Oph" over and over. I finally realized he was saying "door open". I asked him where the door was and he pointed to it. We went over and opened the door and stood in the threshold. Truman pointed. "Oww" he said. So out we went. His Mimi was standing in the kitchen because she had brought us some tasty cobbler for dessert. Truman was happy. We decided to let him play for a while as he was thoroughly awake and he crawled up to me, pointed at the outside door and said, "doh oww". I told him no and we soon went to bed. I can't believe how verbal he is at this age. It really amazes me. Here is a pic of the little stinker playing while he should have been sleeping.

Watersliding Fools

After we got back from the lake this afternoon (that will be another post), we took the boys out back and turned the hose on. Carter made up a water slide and they had the best time.

Pictures, get your pictures...

Well, to start off, I saw this on another blog and thought it was pretty funny.


Pappy and his boys

He loves guns now. He has really enjoyed shooting Pappy's Airsoft.

Cool Truman

Alyson and the Puma

We kept Asher the other day and Truman had never met a baby before. He crawled over to him and said "wow" then he loved on him. I couldn't believe it.
