Chiefs and pumpkin patch

More pics to share... First, from last Sunday... Matt and I wore our Chiefs outfits... and they won... I think he may be a lucky charm....

Later in the day we went to the pumpkin patch... Here's a pic from when we first got there... gotta love the jean jacket...
And here's the obligatory "baby with pumpkins" picture:
And they had a tractor, so Matt just HAD to pose on it...:
And one with Mom beside him...
And there was a petting zoo... we didn't actually go in but he was thoroughly impressed with the goats...
And, finally, some pics of our fun with some cut-outs:

Several videos to "catch up"

Here are some videos taken recently... in order of when they were taken (all within the last 2 weeks). Enjoy!

Matt likes to feed himself... here he is with his spoon with some food on it (not a ton... I'm not crazy and didn't want to have a huge mess to clean)...


We have been giving Matt new things to try, including little Gerber puff things that dissolve in your mouth (to get used to some more solid foods). It appears we have finally found a food that Matt actually doesn't like (which is a shocker since he seems to like everything else... although chicken is also a little slow-coming...). Anyway, we thought his face was hilarious so we decided to torture him on video and have him try another one (banana flavor). Mmm....


Matt's defense mechanism... when you try to stick the tissue in his nose to clean out boogers, he spits. Here's the video we took when we realized it... try not to be jealous of my camoflauge footed pajamas...


Jimmy caught me on video playing with Matt in his jumperoo. He gets quite a kick out of seeing me "bounce" and cackle/babble at him... and the reason I'm shaking my head at times is he cracks up when my hair is flying all over the place... he's been grabbing it for a while now (so beware if you get to see him soon...)


Here's Matt crawling! He likes to pretend he can't crawl... he'll rock back and forth on his hands and knees, and then he'll sprawl out like "flying baby" - until you put something he wants out of his reach... then he'll actually go for it. This is one of the best attempts he has made so far with crawling (just took the video today). Pretty sure he's going to off and 'running' anytime now...

New camera

I know I haven't posted new pics in a while. For those of you I've spoken with, you know that I broke my camera and then immediately broke Jimmy's camera. So we were camera-less. We have a new camera now. Some pics are provided below... First, Happy Matt (He's soo..... happy... almost all of the time... note I said "almost"):
Matt still likes to cuddle... sometimes... one with Daddy...
And one with Mommy:
Matt is quite helpful... here he is helping Mommy make a salad... he's holding the chicken:
And here he is helping by feeding himself... please notice he's doing this left-handed... he seems to reach out with his left hand for quite a bit of things...
And, because I'm the one adding to the blog, here are pics of Matt in his Chiefs outfit... he seems pretty happy to be a Chiefs fan, huh?:
