Talan says "I Love You"

I thought this video was cute, Barney was on, the "I love you" song...and he started to sing it! Don't mind me singing though I was trying to get him to do it again! If you listen close you can hear it!

Talan's Birthday Party

I know, I know, I really have been slacking on the updating. This past week has been super busy with Talan's birthday and Thanksgiving. To top it off I got a bad stomach bug last Friday and had to go to the ER for monitoring and to get an iv because I was so dehydrated. I feel a million times better now and can't wait to start all the Christmas decorating!

All that aside, I wanted to post some pictures from Talan's birthday party.

He had so much fun, a little too much fun for one day! The party had a jungle/monkey theme. Here are some pictures.

First Birthday and Christmas Pic Time!

Well it has been quite a while since my last post. I have been so busy chasing after Talan and trying to plan his first birthday party, which is this weekend. Today we went to go get some 1 year pictures done. I went ahead and got some Christmas ones too. Here they are, he was such a good boy this time, I had so many to pick from.

Talan Walks!!

Well, I knew it would happen when we were gone. We left to go to Indianapolis this past weekend to go to the Colts/Patriots game. (I will post another entry about this) and we come back and he has started walking. He was very close before we left, he would take a couple steps then sit, but now its all over...he figured it out! Here is a video of him from today. Please don't mind my voice over. I sound silly!

Irvine Park Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday we went to the Irvine Park Pumpkin Patch with AJ, Jaime, Cade, Brodie, Grandma Linda and Papa Buck and Great Grandma Charlotte. The pumpkin patch was very packed with tons of little kids because it is the weekend before Halloween. Cade, Talan and Brodie had so much fun! There was a train, a maze, pony rides and tons and tons of pumpkins. Here are some pictures I took.

Great Grandma with Brodie, Cade and Talan. This one is actually really good because the only one not looking is Talan!

He loved sitting on the pumpkins.

Little Piglet

Our little corn husks...another one that we couldn't get them to look in the same direction.

Standing with the Scarecrow.

All of them are looking the same direction, but not at the camera!!

They are too cute!

Before the pumpkin patch at Carrows. Cade came over to say Hi to Talan.

Kisses from Talan

Not much new here, Talan is just about to walk. He stands really well and will take 2 or 3 steps then sits down. I think he is still scared. It will be any day now I know it. I keep trying to get my camera out so I can capture it on film. This is what I got on film today. He has been giving out tons of kisses lately.

New Baby

In case you haven't heard the news already, the Martin Family is expecting a new addition in April 2009. We are very excited for Talan to have a little brother or sister. My scanner isn't working right now so I had to take pictures of the ultrasounds, but hey it works. Here they are. I am 14 weeks pregnant and due April 16th.

The Pumpkin Patch

We took Talan to the Pumpkin Patch for the first time on Wednesday. He had a lot of fun. There wasn't much stuff for him to do, there were a lot of big kid rides. They had a petting zoo, so Talan got to see some animals. Here are some pictures that we took.

Talan's First Cold

Not much new lately. Talan got his first cold, well, runny nose this week. Of course I freaked out and made an appointment with the pediatrician immediately. He didn't have a fever and his ears looked good so she just told me to give him saline drops and keep his nose clean. She doesn't like to give any medicine to babies because then they don't build up their natural immunities to viruses. She did write a prescription just in case it turned into a cough, but it hasn't yet.

I have been making some shirts and trying to sell them on ebay and stuff. They are pretty cute, and with Mark's new printer at work it makes it really easy. I just come up with a quick design, send it over to him, he prints it and then I use a heat press to put it on the shirts. Here are some pictures of Talan modeling some of them.

Sunday BBQ

On Sunday we went to a BBQ at AJ and Jaime's house for Ralph and Katie's "Farewell" party. They are moving to Tennessee and everyone got together. I didn't get a lot of pictures of the adults but got a couple cute pictures of the kids. It was so cute, it was all little boys there. We definitely need some little girls in the mix!

This is Talan, Cade, Reed and Jenson playing in the Wagon.

Head Banger

Haha, yesterday I caught Talan doing this weird head-banging thing...so I quick got out my camera and caught it on film. Here he is, so funny.

Just A Cute Video & Some Pictures

Here is a cute video that I shot last weekend. It shows how fast Talan is crawling and getting around! He also has been getting up on to the fireplace and he sees himself in the reflection! It is really cute.



Here are some more pics that I took this weekend of Talan...too cute not to post!


Talan loves his toys!



He loves His String Cheese Too!
And his Baths!!
