Ok, I'm a slacker

Okay, okay. I haven't been keeping up with my "Keeping Up" blog. Sorry. Things have been pretty chaotic around here with Sam's upgrade, my school, and Austin's increased awake time. Here's my attempt at catching you up on all the happenings.

Well, on November 7th, Austin, Sam, the dogs and I went out to Burns Park in North Little Rock for a walk and a picnic with Matt, Lisa, and Andrew Halderman and their dogs. We spread out some blankets and hung out. It was a nice relaxing afternoon.

The next day Austin showed off one of his many talents (thanks to Granny showing him how he can reach them). He LOVES his toes and plays with them regularly. Here I got him with big toe in mouth.

The squadron has a Burger Burn one afternoon and Austin and I went to see Sam at work. It just so happened that Sam got nominated to get a pie to the face to raise money for the Christmas party. The guys encouraged me to "pie" Sam, but I let the boys have their fun.

Austin loves to hangout with his puppies. He loves to watch them go by.

During Granny's most recent trip, Austin was allowed juice. He loves his juice from either a cup or a bottle. The first video is Austin drinking from his sippy cup. The second is him holding his own bottle (kinda). And yes, he's drinking from a pink bottle. He's very comfortable with his manhood.

He is also more and more fascinated by the things around him. He especially loves the colorful remote control.
