Dear Bo, I love your dimple and when you wake up...

There's a zillion things I love about you, but lately, I've narrowed them down to these two...

1.  When you wake up---If both Daddy and I are home, there are very few times when we have not gone in and gotten you from your crib together.  In fact, we threaten each other if one of us tries to go in alone.  We just love going in and getting you.  You always look a little dazed, and you always give the biggest grin as soon as you see us.  I love it!

2.  The dimple on your right cheek---Need I say more?

Dear Bo, Race for the Cure and Visitors this weekend...

We had a full weekend!

You and Daddy had a guys' night in while I went to a work dinner on Friday night.

Saturday morning, we walked in the Race for the Cure and had breakfast downtown.




 Saturday evening, we had friends stay the night.  You were unusually whiny, but I know it's because we weren't giving you our full attention and were trying to catch up with friends!

Then on Sunday, we finally child-proofed the house!  You are just into everything now! You enjoyed stalking Scout and playing with Daddy's wooden toys.

Dear Bo, You love your daddy...

You giggle when he kisses the back of your neck...

And you love it when he's mowing the lawn and knocks on the window to make funny faces at you...

Dear Bo, Your favorite things at 9 months...

Your Fisher Price stackable rings.  You love to crawl with them!


Your Leap Frog music table; you love to close the book and bounce with the music.

Your Leap Frog Fridge Farm.

Reading books.  Your favorites are:  Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? and Maddy the Alaskan Moose.  You love when I make all the sounds in the Maddy Moose book.  When I finish one of these books you start fussing until I pick up another book.  Can I tell you how much I love that?  I loved reading to you when you were in my tummy, and I often told Daddy how fun it would be to have a little reader.

Dear Bo, You love yourself...

You've made a couple of big discoveries this week.

First, the trash can.

Next, your reflection in the trash can.

Aww, you like your reflection so much you gave it kisses...

(Some people (your Daddy in particular) might say you were licking the trash can, but I'm sticking with giving yourself kisses...)

Dear Bo, Fun on the farm and ranch...

It was family picture weekend at the ranch this weekend.  We went to the farm early so Daddy could hunt, then spent Saturday at the ranch getting pictures made.  Considering we had 10 adults, 10 kids, 5 of whom were under the age of 3, I'd say it went rather well.

Here's you with the ranch sign.  See?  It's your ranch! (Boy, am I going to have fun with taking pictures of you with everything that says "Bozeman" throughout the years!)


Daddy let you drive the short road to the ranch house, and you had a grand old time!


You got to play with your cousins, especially Brooks.  You were sharing toys...
And crawling...
Then...

See that mischievous grin?  He thought you looked scrumptious, edible even, and nibbled on you!  You forgive easily and all was well after a good cry.

Pop took you on your first mule ride.  You liked the steering wheel (of course) and loved seeing Kate (Pop's dog).  You even enjoyed the kitties, but you could care less about the horses.

And don't forget that you got lovin' from Mimi, too!

Another fun weekend at the farm and ranch!

Dear Bo, Finally, your 9 month pictures revealed...

My scanner isn't working so I'm just now getting these posted.

You were smiley in some...


Serious in others...

And even just plain ornery in another...

Either way, I think you're pretty handsome!
