Like Mother, Like Son

or at least this is what I am told! :)

Turkey Time??

These turkeys were right next door...gobbling away! I bet you won't see them out there towards the end of November! :)

This is what happens when a turkey is in the backyard of a house with a 144 pound Great Dane.....I really didn't even know they could fly!

Big Brother, Little Brother

Hat attempt= FAIL. But they are cute hats and we will try this again when Matthew 1-decides to leave the hat on and 2- stops trying to get the camera!

Swimmie Swim Time

Getting some love from Daddy

after a nap....can you see the bedhead?? We call this the Papa Akins look! :)

Splish Splash

we were taking a bath!

So Big!

I guess I should have bought 2 of these chairs....seems as though Matthew thinks he is big enough for one too!

So sweet - and not 1 tooth! :(

Tornado spotted in Kansas

Tornado Matthew that is.......and he seems to like his brothers room best!

Getting Easier

Mealtime that is.....both of the boys are starting to eat the same things. Except Matthew eats a larger variety and more than his brother. Why is that?? Matthew is not even 1 yet! I think we have an eater on our hands!

Grilled Cheese...mmmm!

Not 1 tooth in his mouth, but that doesn't stop him!

One month until a ParTay!

That's right- Matthew is 11 months old! I can not really believe it! Where has the time gone and why is my baby growing up so so fast??

So what's he doing now??

- babbling about dada, mama, baba, doggie, byebye, etc

- eating anything and everything he can get his hands on

- taking a few steps all by himself

- climbing stairs

-NO teeth still

- wrestling with his brother

Jackson at 11 months

Snack Time like Brother

Matthew is beyond excited that he can have his own bowl of cheerio's now - just like brother!

Matthew's Favorite Place

If you are missing toys in this house - you may want to start your search in the oven drawer! I can't seem to keep him out of here!

He's getting better!
