Titus has been doing well. His ears have cleared up and he seems to not have any problems. Other than that, not too much is going on. He is walking pretty good while holding my hands. He is still trying to crawl, but not getting very fall. Getting up on his hands and knees is about it. He has pulled himself up to a standing position from a sitting position in his crib. I am hoping to get some video of it soon.

Titus is also beginning to wave. He moves his hand up and down then starts to curl his fingers in. I just love watching him wave to everyone.

Sleet in October

Wow.. is it ever cold today. Only in mid October and this morning there was sleet hitting our windows. It seems as if the only time I get to do any blogging now that Titus is growing up and becoming more fun to play with is when he is in bed. But it seems as if when he is in bed I want to be in bed. I have been extra tired lately and not really sure why, maybe its because Titus got up around 6:30am for an entire week and I didn't get to take any naps like normal. Maybe its because of the weather, whatever it is I don't know but I am tired.

We have had some very interesting things happen lately, Justin was in the hospital for some surgery, nothing big and he is recovered and back to himself again. We found out that we didn't get the grant to help with our adoption. For some reason I guess God wants us to trust him a little more. I was really upset when we got the rejection letter. It never said why we didn't get the grant just that we weren't chosen. I really wish there was a little more explination. Oh well... life continues.

(Justin will not want this on here, but I think its sweet.)

A couple weeks ago we went to help load a moving truck for my brother and sis (in-law) they were moving to Maine. It was odd seeing them all packed up and not knowing for sure when we would see each other again. They gave us a nice gift, mostly for Titus, a really cute faux fur coat and a beenie hat. He looks so adorable in it. (see pic below) I am so glad they gave us the hat it has been real useful the last couple days with the cold snap we are having.

Thanks Aunt Courtney.. I'm staying warm :)


I had to take Titus to the Doc today, he has an ear infection and a sore throat. I feel so bad for him, now I know why he didn't want to eat any of his baby food. I have started giving him some meat baby food. He DID NOT like the ham and gravy, he gagged a couple of times while I was feeding him. Needless to say I got rid of that one. Yesterday I gave him a Chicken and Apples. That went over really well, but anything with apples is good!

What's up with Titus?

Titus was playing with toys until he realized I was folding towels.

He decided he needed to help me.

I did this by myself.

(not exactly how he did this, but I found him playing when I walked into the room)

Titus is trying to crawl,

He is getting up on his hands and knees,

But when he tries to move, he falls flat.

Titus loves his blocks. He bangs them together

& is learning to throw them. (I am not to happy with the throwing idea.)

Titus is learning how to pull himself up to get into his toy basket.

Then he sits and plays with the toys he got out of the basket.

Wants to play cornhole.

Decided that sitting on the playing field would be better.

Titus loves taking baths in the big tub!

Titus has begun to hold his bottle on his own.

He doesn't do it all the time, just when he feels like it.

My own personal band. Titus likes to play with my pots.
