Harrison's new shades :)

Hi all! Happy late Thanksgiving! I hope everyone had a great holiday! We sure did! Of course we were rushing around everywhere so that everyone could see Harrison, but it was really nice to hang out with our families and spend as much time with them on that day as we could. Harrison just got some glasses as you can see in his pictures. He used to cross his eyes a lot we noticed, so we took him to the eye doctor and they said that he is extremely far sided and that's why he's been crossing because he can't see very far away. So, they are taking the most extreme measure and have these huge lenses on him, which makes his eyes look huge, but still cute at the same time :)

He's been doing okay having them on though. He takes them off every so often but the doctor said that every time he takes them off to immediately put them right back on him. What sucks though is that he's bending his frame everytime he takes them off, so we are constantly trying to adjust them, but I'm going to have to take him back to the dr and have them try to fix them. That's pretty bad for only having them a week, but what do you expect? He's only 16 months!

He's doing great all around though, he's walking up to 6 steps, and the other day he walked to me and turned, mid walk! I think now that he has his glasses and can see, that he will be walking in no time at all. I think now he's going to have the confidence. He's such a great little man though and he just amazes me everyday. I think he's going to be very musical. He's always clapping his hands, and tonight at my cousin's Xmas program he was even trying to snap his fingers. Also, his favorite thing to do is "play" the piano.

He's still just saying "Momma, Dada, and Dog". We went for a run on the canal on Saturday and there were a few dogs together that were swimming and a lady stopped Kenney and told him that Harrison's been waving at them for a few minutes. Kenney just said "Not suprising, he LOVES dogs". I guess he gets that from him momma!

Well, I have got to get some sleep, so I hope everyone is doing well and I hope you enjoy the pictures!

HOWLoween and Halloween!

This past weekend was great! Harrison had such a blast all weekend, and we just took it all in :) On Saturday, I had to work at our HOWL-o-ween party and Harrison came too! He was carried into a room full of Great Danes, Labs, and weimaraners and he wasn't fazed at all. He just kept saying "Dog? Dog?", it was adorable and of course he was a big hit at the party.

Then on Saturday night, we met up with my mother in law and went trick or treating in our neighborhood! We only hit 3 houses because come on, Harrison isn't going to eat any candy! So we got enough for us :)

After that we went to our friend Chuck's house and had some chili and hung out with my brothers and some friends. It was a GREAT halloween! I love how laid back Harrison is, nothing ever fazes him. The masks, weird noises, and different people and he was just so chill!

Everything else is going really good! Harrison is doing good :) He is so close to walking! He is practicing falling down now, I think. He stands up, lets go of whatever he's holding on to, then falls over and cracks up. He only does this on the couch, thank God. He says "Dog, Dad, Mom, Earl and milk". He is also getting pretty independent on things and I can tell when he gets really frustrated. We are working on some things, like hitting toys when he get's upset and are still working on not feeding the dogs. It just seems that everytime I say "Don't do this", or "No", he just keeps doing it over and over until I distract him with something else. It's tough, but it seems that we are both learning as we go along.

I hope everyone is well.
