Barrett the "Biter"

Well, it has happened. Barrett bit a poor unexpected baby at daycare on the knee. They say he has had many attempts and finally succeeded yesterday. They say he is not doing it to be mean, but is a little curious.

Other than that, I hope you have had a chance to look at Barrett's pictures at
http://www.dustygormanphotography.com/ under the online ordering. They are adorable. We only have a few days left until our little boy is one. I can't believe a year has gone by! Well, guess we will see everyone on Saturday. Have a safe trip! :) Michelle

They turned out really cute. I think we are going to go ahead and purchase the CD of all the pictures. So, if any of you would like a picture just let us know and we can get it for you. We should have the CD for his birthday, so we can take orders then. Hope to see you all at his birthday. We just sent out invitations yesterday. I had gotten sick last week and it pushed us back us getting out the invitations. We still can't believe he is going to be 1. He looks so grown-up in his pictures!

Hope all is well,
Love,
Michelle

Barrett's Birthday is Coming!

We cannot believe that our little man is about to be one! This year has flown by. We are going to have his party on Saturday, October 25th at 12:00 pm here in Lubbock. We will be sending out invitations this week. Just in case you need to know, he is wearing 12-18months clothes. 18-24 is still a little big.

We DVR'd the Bee Movie and he just loves it. It is amazing how much he is glued to that movie. It is his favorite.

He is so funny and is always a mess. He is such a joy though. We can't wait for everyone to see him.

Barrett is Crawling all over the place!

Well Barrett is changing so much everyday! Sorry it has been so long since the last post! He has four teeth and loves to use them. We are constantly saying "no bite". He laughs. He is crawling and pulling up everywhere! He is a handful to keep up with! He is growing up too fast. He loves mashed potatoes and his cereal puffs. When he stands up he loves to look at his feet. He is so amazed by them. He can walk along the couch and tries to walk from the couch to the table. He's really brave. We have had many bumps and bruises, but he is falling with grace now!

Hope everyone is doing well. We miss everyone. I will try to post more often!

We plan on having his 1st Birthday Party on the weekend of October 25th here in Lubbock. Hope to see you all there!

Go Barrett Go!

Rex's Wedding and Aunt Susie's

WE went to Houston The middle of August. Barrett got to fly on his first airplane trip. He did such a good job. He was such a big boy. We got to stay with Susie and Megan and had a great time. Uncle Brad picked us up at the airport and we got to spend time with Sugee, Skunk, Aunt KK, Nannie, Brad, and many more! Here are some pictures of our trip.

Barrett Changes everyday!

We went for his 9 month check up on Friday, July 25th. He weighed 20 lbs 8.5 oz-60%, was 29 inches long-85%, and his head was over the 100%. He is growing so much in many ways.

He has such a sweet personality and a mind of his own. He is not crawling yet, but gets on his knees. He even tried to pull up on the recliner today. It won't be long before he is crawling all over the place I am sure.....

I need to post some pictures and write about all of our trips. Hope everyone is doing great. Love, The Sugareks

Just an Update

Well, Barrett has developed quite the personality. He is such a cutie pie. He loves to kiss and hug.... He also, grunts alot and makes tons of noises. He has surely found his voice. It is so cute. Hopefully I will figure out how to upload video. We miss everyone a bunch and I am sure you miss Barrett a ton.

He is not yet crawling, but is very strong. We went to the river 2 weeks ago and he got to see his cousin JC and had alot of fun with Sugee, KK, and Skunk. He and JC were so cute together. I will get pictures up here soon!

Well, all is well here in Lubbock. Barrett has been a little under the weather lately, but is doing much better. We found out Thursday he had Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease and two ear infections. He still does not have a great appetite, but it is improving. He is changing so much every day.

May 15th he got his first tooth followed by the second one around the 19th. He loves bouncy balls and watching other little kids play. He hangs on your every word really wanting to imitate you. We ofcourse think he is adorable and the joy of our lives. He is so happy, even when he is under the weather.

Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Happy Mother's Day to All!

We hope everyone has a Happy Mother's Day! We wish we could be there with you!

Well, sorry I am late posting something new! Last week we took Barrett to the pediatrician for his 6 month check-up. time sure does fly!


His weight was: 17lbs 14oz- 65%


Height : 26.8 inches - 75%


Head : 18.2 inches- 97%


He is a growing boy. He is such a joy. We are so blessed. He changes so much everyday. He laughs so much and is always in a good mood. Sometimes I catch myself just staring at him.





Lately he has not been sleeping as good. He is teething, the bottom 2 teeth are trying to come in. I think he is starting to feel a little better though.





We took him to get his picture made on Tuesday. He was such a big boy. He sat up by himself the entire time. He almost toppled over just a couple of times.

More Pictures of Barrett

Here is the Sailor Suit Barrett was wearing in some of his pictures we had taken on Tuesday. We won't have the proofs for 2 weeks. I think they will be adorable!

Barrett's doing better! :)

Well, Barrett has had to go to the Doctor quite a bit lately.. He has had 2 ear infections in 3 weeks, but we think he is on the road to recovery. Tomorrow we go in and he will get his shots unless he is still sick. She will check him over tomorrow. Last time we went he weighed 18 lbs. and a little change with his clothes on. Tomorrow they will weigh him without his clothes and measure his length. He is definitely growing .

He changes all the time. He loves to laugh alot and is so good natured. His hand-eye coordination is really good. If he wants something he can grab it. Now, he is a little lazy sometimes. When we put him on the floor he won't always roll around. Especially if you want him to. He does like his exersaucer. He can play in it a while!

He hangs on your every word and moves his mouth with yours. He still does not cry too much unless there is a good reason. What can we say? He's perfect!

Go Barrett Go!

Well, today we were in the living room and Barrett was playing in the floor. Before we knew it he was half-way across the room. He is rolling over and over. He was so proud of himself. I can't believe how much he changes each day. He is growing up so fast!

Barrett is also sitting up so well. He wobbles a little and still falls over, but it getting the hang of it. He is so strong and loves to grab everything. He loves to go shopping with Mommy. I sat him up straighter in the stroller and he just loved looking around.

He still has a cough, but hopefully his ear infection is gone. We will keep a close eye on him. He such a sweetie pie!
