Our Baby Boy is 2 Months!

Slade turned 2 months on October 17th. He had his wellness check-up today and yes, it involved shots... 3 of them! He fussed a little, then took one look at that nurse as if to say, "Is that all you got?" The nurse said, "Ooh, he's a tough one... most of the babies cry for a long time and scream like crazy." One of them was oral. It was a liquid; so he lucked out on that one. He's in the 50th percentile across the board for weight, height and the size of his head for his age. Slade's also big on cooing, smiling, laughing and he's very alert. He loves to look around as well... he doesn't skip a beat! He really likes to be interacted with; which is good because Gavin is a motormouth... :-) And if you look closely in the background of this pic; that would be Gavin wearing his Halloween costume already. Y'all know he LOVES Super Mario Bros; so guess what his costume is? Yep... so ya he likes to play dress up with his Mario costume... We're gonna get our $20 worth out of THAT one! :-)

Family Day at the Texans Game!

Like father, like son... making the same face and SO into the game! Slade did well. He did not fuss one time. He stayed awake half of the time. And when he was asleep he wasn't phased a bit by the very noisy stadium! Now Art wants season tickets... Right before the game Art went to Best Buy to get Gavin noise canceling headphones that connect to his DS and he played it a lot during the game. It helped considering a 6 year old's attention span is quite short. Great idea Art! Gavin did love the game though and can't wait to go back... It would have been better if the Texans didn't get stomped by the Giants though! :-(

Gavin loves him some Slade...

Dad duty... and Mr. Slade got a lot of attention from passers by too. :-)

Guess what this one was eating...

Look at these two... Yep, right down to the shoes. They are too much! The kicker is, Gav did match his Dad's jersey on purpose. The rest of their outfit was an accident.
