Nabby McNabster

Drayton is walking all of the time now. I love the way babies walk. They kind of turn their knees out and waddle. Since Drayton has now realized he can quickly explore the rest of the house, he is constantly nabbing things and distributing them to other rooms of the house. I found a bracelet in the laundry room, the wipes in the dining room, and the lotion is definitely a favorite. It is really fun to sneak up on him when he's walked into another room and scare him. He jumps and then giggles and tries to run away. He has started to play his version of hide and seek with Ty. Ty will yell "Drayton" and Drayton in turn yells "Dada". It is pretty precious. Such a fun time!

Major catch up

So, like always, I have some major catching up to do.

February 4, it snowed. It was Drayton's first snow and he loved it!!!

He loved to eat it. 

and walk in it.

Cookie came for a visit while Daddy and Uncle Adam went to Honduras.

a little brood of ruffians

We went to the park!  He is always carrying spoons around.  He loves them and calls them boons.

Mimi and Nongy came to build him a new swingset and deck all in a weekend!  He loves them both.

He's never angry about naked time.

When will they be clean?

Then we headed to Cleburne, TX to the McWilliams farm with the Fords for Spring Break.

Again, who doesn't love to sit naked on a rock in a creek?

His first time in a sandbox.  He loved it, and also loved throwing sand.

We took a big ol field trip to Fossil Rim, an outdoor zoo.  Drayton loved it!  Some of our knees did not love it.

Uncle Cole wasn't so sure about some of the animals.

And finally, the boy has his first pair of shades and he loves them!!!

Oh, and I guess, a big by the way, DRAYTON IS WALKING!!!  Back in mid February he started to take his first steps, and now he walks all the time!!  It's pretty fun. Video to come.



Little stinker

Just a few random pictures.  Drayton is definitely expressing himself so much these days and is into everything!  He's a non-stop party (with a few sweet moments).

OOOOklaaaahoma Oklahoma!

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is one of my favorite movies.  We used to watch it over and over every summer at my Grandparents' in East Tennessee.  Every time I say Oklahoma, it is hard for me not to think of the scene in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

Anyways, we recently tagged along with Ty on a recruiting trip to OC and then made a trip out of it and swung by Duncan to see his Grandparents. 

While we were at OC, we stayed with Ty's cousin Dave and his wife Rachel.  Drayton is a bit of a flirt, and definitely thought Aunt Rachel was beautiful!  Thanks Dave and Rachel!  We had so much fun!

Then, it was on to Duncan.  Drayton got so excited when he saw this giant ball!

Is there anything more classic than a cozy coupe?

We had beautiful weather and got to go outside and play a lot! 

Drayton loves him some Grandmom!

Again, the red rubber ball!

It's a Jack attack!  Drayton was pretty mesmerized by Jack.  Sometimes he thought he was hilarious and sometimes he wasn't too sure about him!  It was pretty cute.

It was a great quick trip!
