Moooooooo Cows
Our neighbors down the street have some cows and they were right by the fence the other day. This was my first time to see a real cow up close and personal. There was a baby calf that just starred at me and wouldn't move. I wasn't scared of them at all!

Batter, Batter, Batter, SWING!!
I love to go outside and play, especially in the dirt!!! I even tried to eat some dirt! I try to go to the water faucets and turn them on, but apparently I am not strong enough yet. Mom and Dad keep trying to teach me how to swing instead of the chopping motion I do. Have patience Parents- I am only 17 months old!
Cox Cousins in Town
Aunt Whitney had to work last weekend, so Uncle Rusty brought the kids to visit Grandma and Big Daddy ( and to visit me too). We had a great time getting all of their toys out and making a mess. I learned how to say "car' from Paxton- Thanks! Mackey was crawling and enjoyed the Curious George -in-the-box that I have. Big Daddy tried to pull us around in the trailer, but we really weren't too sure about it. Thanks for all the great meals Grandma- you really know how to fatten us up!!!!

Fun Day at Splash Kingdom Waterpark
Here's a picture of me and my cousin Colby ( 1 year older than me). We are waiting on Aunt Dawn and the girls to get here so we can go have some fun in the sun!!
The park doesn't open until 11 am and I normally take a nap after lunch, so needless to say, I was out for a little while. This is my cousin Haley. She took me on a bunch of slides. She will be a great babysitter one day. We are ready for her to get older and learn to drive so Mommy and Daddy can go out on some dates ALONE!!!!!
There were two different parks for little kids and Colby and I enjoyed them both. One was mostly slides and the other one had a lot of fountains. I finally learned how to sit up when sliding. I used to lean way back and end up bumping my head everytime.

Bye Bye Ava
Mom and I were excited to have Ava Joy spend the day with us while her mom and dad loaded the moving van. We are so happy for the Ford family as they move into their new home and get to use a dishwasher! !! Ha ha! She was such a good girl and I enjoyed giving her kisses about every 10 minutes. Here is 4 months compared to 16 months. They grow soooooo fast!
Potential as a future Plumber
Play Date with Avery
Learning about the Lawnmower
I love to get on the lawnmower, especially whenever I get into or out of the car. I run and climb up on it and start driving. I went around a few times with Daddy on this day and then I noticed some toys in Big Daddy and Grandma's garage. Dad and Mom have to call them and ask them to shut their garage door before we come over, or else we will never make through the door. I am learning new things everyday. I can say "fish", "spoon", "ball", "shoes", "dog" , "sit" (which sounds like he is cussing, if you know what I mean) and some others. When asked how old I am, I will MOST of the time show you the number 1. I am almost 17 months old and I am actually slimming down a bit. I still have big cheeks and big legs, but I have lost some of my baby fat.
Yes, we got ANOTHER dog ( end of July)
We bought a Puggle, a mix of Pug and Beagle. He is really cute, but he was getting on momma's nerves because he was pooping and peeing in our new house. She forgot what raising a puppy was like. His name is Tobey and he is about 4 months old. He and Max (Pug) play well together- they chase each other and bite each other (I guess that is playing). I like to spend time drinking out of their water bowls.

I LOVE TO EAT!!!!!!! (July)
Going Away Party for the Ford Family
We are sure going to miss Brandon, Melissa, and Ava. Ava is about 4 months here. We are excited for them as they make a big transition from little Liberty City to big Fort Worth. We all gathered at the Crouch's for a little going away BBQ. They aren't leaving just yet... so I can still spend some more time giving her kisses. I also got to spend some QUALITY time playing and kissing an old friend, Avery, who was in town from Oklahoma. We had a blast playing in all of the sprinklers at the Crouch house and running around the pool.
A New Friend
This is Cade and he is about 5 months older than me. His mom and my mom went to high school together and cheered together. We are excited that they will be moving back to the East Texas area in a year- I will have a friend to play with since Ava is leaving me. We had a great time playing ball and our moms had fun just "catching up." Cade, be a good boy so Daddy can finish dental school!!! AND WE ARE BOTH AGGIES! WHOOP!!!
Vacation- Navarre Beach, Florida (June)
On the way to Florida, I would eat and then watch SpongeBob and then sleep and then eat some more. Mom and Dad pretty much can't stand to hear another thing from Spongebob Squarepants. It takes about 11 hours, but we split it up into 2 days due to me!!!!
This is what Navarre Beach looks like... and boy was I ready to get out of the car and run around. Grandma and Grandpa rode with the Poe family, so we didn't have to drive three cars to Florida. We had a 3 bedroom/ 3 bath condo on the 10th floor. I talked to them alot on the walkie talkies we had.
I wasn't very fond of the floaties. I would much rather be climbing up and down the stairs to the pool or playing at the faucet with a new girlfriend I found.
We played a lot at the pool and even went crabbing at night !
I enjoyed spending time with my cousins Megan and Haley.
My most favorite thing was playing in the water from the faucet by the pool.
I loved going out on the balcony with everyone! (Don't worry!! My big head/body couldn't fit through the bars!)
