August (Part 1)

Pierce has learned to open the drawers in my jewelry box.

Hmmm, what's in here?

 Look at that face.  G-U-I-L-T-Y

Big kisses from Mommy

We went to Javier's house for a play date.  The kiddos enjoyed crawling under the coffee table.

Hey, look at me.

Our coffee table is too short.  How fun!

Ok, I've had enough.

Mr. P is walking.

And he is oh so proud!

He is trying to get into the cabinets.

Happy walking boy

Our silly boy loves to stick out his tongue.

I think that I'll play with my cars and trucks on top of the coffee table. 

Fun times

Vroom, vroom.

Pierce loves his slide. 

Wheee, he went down all by himself.

Let's do that again.

Up he goes...

I've got this Mom.

Off to the water table

Someone is in deep thought.

 Busy bee

 Oooh, what can I do with these?

 We went to a play group at Haven's house.  Pierce loved baby Owen.

 He said hi to him.

 He gave him a gentle pat.

 Hi Baby Owen

 Pierce played with Wyatt.

 Haven, Jacqueline, Pierce, and Wyatt

 He had so much fun.

Psssst...they are taking more pictures.  Grrr. 

 Adley and Catherine came over to play.

 They had fun and pulled out all of the toys.

 Pierce loves to do crafts because he can eat the paper. 

Mmm, paper tastes good.

Silly guy

Daddy shared his ice cream with Pierce.

He LOVED it.

Pierce watched Mickey Mouse.

He hasn't been much a tv fan so I was shocked that he was watching it.

He liked it.

Now, get me out of here.

While Mimi and Mommy cooked, Pierce played with pots, spatulas, and cookie cutters.

Hey look at me.  I can stir.

He will crawl into any space that he will fit.

Pierce colored for the first time.  He also took a bite out of the back of the blue crayon.

We went to Sophie's house to play. 

They enjoyed the bubbles.

Pierce played with one of his favorite pals.

Pierce loves to hit the balls with the hammer. 

Someone got into the baby wipes.  What!?!

Chyna and Ashton came over to visit. He loved playing with them.

I will comb my hair and then eat the comb.

We had a Briargrove pool party at the Anchondo's house.  Pierce loved the stairs.

They were so kind and gentle with him.

He loved their homemade castle.

It was very cool!

Taking a cruise in his car

His walk is still a little wobbly.

Someone took a few bites out of my sponge. I guess that it's time for a new one. I admit that it does kind of look like a cookie.

Murree waited for food to drop.

Mommy and Pierce

Daddy and Pierce

Pierce and Catherine enjoyed bbq.

Pierce moved to his big boy car seat.

Catherine, Pierce and Gretchen at the zoo.

Pierce crawled through the tunnel for the first time.

We looked at the meercats.

Sophie and Pierce liked the chimpanzees.

Hey Mom, look at those guys.

Stroller pose

Pierce brushed the goats.

He chased this guy across the tank.

We painted with pudding again.

Yummy!

Pierce likes to paint.

This is my kind of painting.

We like edible projects.

Delicious!

Pierce moved the rug across the kitchen floor. 

We had a play group at Jacob's house.

4 Guys and A Gal

Pierce loves peanut butter.

He loved to climb in the bottom drawer oven. 

We now have a lock on it.

Water tastes yummy!

Hey Mom, look at me.

He is so proud.  I thought that it was cute at first, but it quickly became a bad habit.

We had a play date at Jacqueline's house.

Hand print and footprint art

Mommy went to a Honey Boo Boo Party.

We went to Mimi's house and Pierce played with Mimi and Buddy.

We played at Catherine/William's house.  He had to check William out.

We had lunch at Tommy's house.  We spiked Pierce's hair just like Tommy's. 

Pierce, Tommy, Amy

Pierce loves these HUGE bears at Costco.  One day, I will have to break down and buy one for him.  I just don't have the room for it though.

We played at Alex and Santiago's house.

Pierce rode with Ago.

Ago gave Pierce a kiss.

While Brad was in Austin enjoying his guy's golf trip, Pierce called him from the remote control and said, "Dada, dada, dadda."  He really missed his Dada.

Pierce and Uncle Pat had a staring contest.

We went to Lupe Tortilla's, and Uncle Pat pushed Pierce on the roller coaster.

He loved the sand.

This little guy loves peanut butter.  It was EVERYWHERE.  Check out the back of his hair.  LOL.

Pierce and Mimi built things.

Uncle Pat took Pierce for a ride in his lego wagon.  The four dogs did laps with them.

Pierce and Mimi

Kami and Mommy went to a baby shower.

Pierce and Mommy

Grandpa....no-more-pictures

My buddy was sound asleep.

He loves our next door neighbor's cat.

I'm not sure if the cat loves him.

We went to Sophie's house and swam in their pool.

We had a play date at Lucas' house.

Lucas isn't a fan of group pictures.

Josie clapped and tried to cheer the guys up.

Pierce has started a new thing with his veggie straws (his favorite snack). He likes to get two fists full.

Snack attack

Josie, Pierce, and Lucas played together.

Pierce and Jacob read a book.

The person to my right obviously got their attention.  Stephanie, it must have been you.  :)

The boys tried on Josie's hair bow.  Here's Jacob.

Pierce did not looked pleased.  Daddy wasn't pleased to see the picture.

And Lucas...

Pierce enjoyed his water table. 

And his slide...

Look at me!

Pierce crawled under the coffee table to get his toy egg.  It was a tight squeeze.

 Pierce got a new pet, Fishie.

We had a play date at Lea's house. 

 Pierce loved sitting on the steps.

 They enjoyed a snack.

 I'm a cookie monster.

 He had a blast in this play house.

 What did I do?  It's just a little bit of mud Mom!

 Now this is one muddy little guy.

Back in the pool 

 Watch out...Pierce is driving.

 He likes to honk horns.

 We bowled in the kitchen.

 Forget the ball.  I'll knock them over with my hands.

 Pierce painted with water.

 Mommy finally hung some of Pierce's art work. 

 We play in the backyard every evening.  It's a great way to end the day!
