So LONG!
I cant belive it has been almost 3 months since I have blogged! I know I'm terrible, but I do have a 17 month old that is on the move! Baker has gotten so big and is really into everything. Its been so long I cant even think of all the fun things Baker has started doing. He tells hilarious stories that only he can understand, and than cracks up when he is all done. Which in turn makes everyone else laugh just as hard. He RUNS, hits a ball off a tee, climbs up everything or down everything, is down to one nap a day, Loves his cousin Emo, eats at the table with the rest of the family, eats everything, gives kisses goodbye when he is ready to go somewhere, rode on a snowmobile and loved it, is just a super duper awesome kid. I really could go on and on about how great I think he is :) But Im sure pictures will be more appreciated.
Baker showing all his teeth. He is up to 12 teeth now but his top k-9 teeth are poking out a little too.
Baker and Emo early moring before Church. These two really love eachother.
Bakers favorite toy. A box! But Tyson and I built him a big fort with boxes and he doesnt like it. He just wants one small box.
Batter up. Baker loves playing all sports. Baseball and hockey are his favorite at the moment.
Baker playing his guitar. He really loves music

Halloween 2008
Hello everyone, Can you believe I am actually blogging and getting pictures up the day after I took them. I cant! I'm still a little surprised myself. But Baker looked so cute yesterday I had to post these quickly. Especially because all these other "Super Mom's" got pics up last night. Ok Kristin Get to the point.
Here are the pics :)
Baker with some of his second Cousins (Kevin, Baker and Jovie) They are all really close in age and I love that we all live in the same town!
Kevin and Baker trick or treating downtown Walla Walla
Baker is the Flash and his super hero cousin Emiliano is Iron Man. Baker couldnt keep his mask on
Flash as a baseball player :)
Baker was having so much fun in the leaves with Emo.
After a long night of being flash he decided to give it up and switch to superman :0)
And he finished the night with a little beerpong with dad!
P.S. I have a couple videos that I want to share but they take so long to upload on this thing that I am going to put them up on youtube. If your interested search Baker Samuel Halloween and you will find all Bakers famous videos :)
Thanks and I hope everyone had a great Halloween.

Fall Fun with Baker
>Sorry everyone. I know its been awhile since I have blogged. Like I've said before I'm not the best at keeping up with things. I get stuck on myspace and next thing you know an hour has passed Baker is up from his nap and I don't have time to blog. But Baker has been doing some really fun stuff and I wanted to share them with everyone.
Jitterbug
Baker has started a fun music, dance, activity class that he does once a week. I get to do it with Baker so it is great bonding time for me and him and he LOVES running around and playing with other kids which we don't get much time for since he stays at home with me or Tyson all day. Baker is learning a bunch of new skills there. The teacher is great with the kids and teaches the parents why she is doing certain things. Its so much fun I wish it was more than once a week. Its the first class I have found that is for kids as young as Baker. I have been trying to get him into something so this was perfect. He plays music instruments (his favorite part) he does obstacle courses which he also loves, nursery rhymes and practices taking turns (not his favorite part) but he is pretty good at it surprisingly. He only cries when it is time to leave.:)
Dog park
We have also been going to the NEW dog park that got put in about a half a mile from our house. We take Baker and the "BOYS" down there as much as we can and let the dogs really run. The other day we went and there was about 20 other big dogs there. So I have to hold Baker most of the time. But today we went and our dogs were the biggest so we let Baker down to roam with the dogs :) He loved it and found a dirt pile to dig in so he fit right in with the dogs. He has just turned into a little boy all of a sudden. He is so much fun.
Here are pics from the park and videos from Jitterbug. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Pumpkin Patch
Tyson and I took Baker and Emo to the pumpkin patch this passed weekend. We usually wait until mid October to go out to Klickers but this year we decided to start Halloween early. We will never wait again. There were the biggest pumpkins ever out there. They were perfect. We ended up getting a 50 lb. pumpkin. We were pretty excited and we got some really good pictures of Baker.
Here is a video of Baker trying to pick up all the pumpkins if you listen carefully you can hear him say "Ball" He thought he was in ball heaven :) Man my baby is cute hahahah
Fun New Pictures
Baker Rocking Daddy's hat
Silverwood with Auntie Bri. Baker went on his first ride. Daddy had a panic attack on the side line:) But Baker loved the rides.
Than he got to meet Garfield. Baker probably thought all the kids were looking at him. He loves being the center of attention.
Baker had a Slumber Party with Emiliano here they are playing the drums.
Here they are ready for bed. My two favorite boys!

Lots to Post
First Coug Game
Baker attended his first ever Cougar Football game 2 weekends ago at Qwest Field. We are so lucky to have great friends in Seattle that let us stay at their house all weekend, the Hintons! We love you guys tons. Baker and Hailey had as much fun as Hailey could possible have being only 3 1/2 months old. Baker loved her a lot and talked to her in this really pitch voice. I think he was trying to be sweet but who knows. Baker really loved their dog Emma who is also a golden retriever and Baker felt right at home chasing her around. I know she was more then ready for us to leave on Monday. We headed down to the coug game Saturday Morning and had Baker all "couged out" he was adorable :). He loved the game and actually let us watch the whole first half without getting up once. I was impressed since he is only 1 and doesn't sit still at all! We walked around a lot the second half and showed Baker all the stuff at Qwest field. Also a lot of drunk Cougar girls wanted to take Bakers pictures so he really thought he was the star and loved EVERY minute of it. We had so much fun but were more then ready to get back to Joe and Gina's after the game. P.S. I don't recommend driving in the same car with a 3 1/2 month old and a one year old in Seattle traffic :)

The girls and our babies! Except mine is a little heavier.

One happy Cougar family
Bumbershoot
During the same weekend we were lucky enough to get tickets from some of Gina and Joe's good friends for Bumbershoot. (Thanks Ian and Julie) I had never been and had no idea what bumbershoot was. I soon realized it was a BUNCH of concerts going on in one local spot. It was like a high class fair I guess. At that moment I was remembering how much fun it was not to have children. I would have loved this place about 2 years ago. But pushing a stroller and a crabby baby around a very crowded place made it not quite the same. Non the less we saw some really great performers and had a good lunch and then drove back to Joe and Gina's and had some really great sushi. :)
Wine Stomp Weekend
After a long weekend in Seattle it was nice to stay home for a weekend and relax. Every year Tyson's parents winery has a grape stomping event for all the Basel Cellars Wine Members. No we aren't members but we got the family connection :) This is pretty much a fun wine party where half of the proceeds go to charity and everyone has a really good time. There is a band and appetizers and lots of grape stomping. This year baker got to get in on the stomping and loved it so much! We can't wait until next year!
Baker's first step into the grapes.
He loved it so much he wanted his clothes off and to sit right down in them.
People thought it was so cute they were helping me pose Baker.
And the result is a ruined onsie but believe me it was well worth it. He had so much fun.
