11 Months!

The pictures pretty much say it all...

"Sorry Momma, I need to go!"

" Why are you doing this to me?!?! Seriously why?" I do not want to sit down with this silly dog!

Awe... "Dog Dog" (which sounds more like DoG, DoG)

Let me check out this ear....

Oooo - never mind there's a cabinet I can open! Way more interesting!

(I have about 20 shots like this.)

Maybe a little wrestling would be good.

Or I could poke you in the nose.

What I learned at 10 Mo. Old....

These are some of my "favorite" things AJ has learned this month....

"Anyone need something from the freezer?" Oh yes .... he can open many things now including the fridge and freezer! He loves corn on the cob and was standing inside the fridge the other day pointing at the corn saying "that, that" over and over!

He now plays "restaurant" with his sisters (note: this sounds WAY better than tea party!). He even pretends to eat the fake food they give him and also makes "yummmm" noises!

This poor baby boy will never get away with anything! He pulled some of the dishes and food off the play stove and Kathryn promptly handed him a mop and showed him to to "clean up his mess"!

Ummm.... anyone else think this might be a problem?

My question was how in the world did he get it open?
(a bit of background.... I was cleaning out the pantry and had a pile of things to get rid of and a pile I need to put back. AJ got the box of Oreo Sticks to put back and decided to help himself! By the time I grabbed my phone to take a picture he had shoved two pieces in his mouth! Such a stinker!)


And, the answer! Apparently biting through the wrapping is very effective!

(This was the other one I didn't know was still in the box! But AJ promptly found it!)

I can't wait to see what we learn at 11 months! Hahaaa!! Love this baby more and more each day!

First Day of School!

So hard to believe... my babies started kindergarten! They were so excited and nervous! I am very happy to say the first week was fabulous. They love the bus, love their teachers, and are already making new friends! These are some pictures from the first day!

This describes a lot about our house! AJ losing it because one of his sisters is trying to contain him! (AKA hold him)

My baby girls and I

The Contardo's

Love these three little people more than anything!

Heading out to the bus!

Rockin' the blue bus hats! (Don't worry they only have to wear them the first month)

The bus!

All smiles! They never hesitated - just jumped right on the bus!

AJ thinking..."what is that huge yellow thing, and where are my sisters going?"

At school!

Caroline at school!

And...they're off! Only 13 more years to go!

10 Months!

I am a bit behind in posting these. AJ is now 10 1/2 months! He is still amazing as ever - walking everywhere now, talking more, and just amazing me everyday! I love him so much!
