I know. This little boy gets so excited whenever he sees Mickey on TV...should be a hoot when he gets to meet him in person.Amy wrote:Every time I see his newest photo, I have to smile because he looks so darned happyI can only imagine the look of pure joy he will have on his face the first time he gets to see Mickey in person mouse

Re: Growing Up With Mickey
Kids really do bring enjoyment into our lives! They are truly blessings to have! Is he starting to rock back and forth on his knees or propel himself forward? They are so neat to watch. I remember joking about my younger kids about not being in a rush for them to crawl since that meant they would be all over the place

Re: Growing Up With Mickey
He's not quite on his hands and knees...but extremely close. He doesn't know that putting his knees and hands up together will be what helps him to move forward. Right now he just pushes himself backward most of the time.
His grandparents got him a new Mickey, one in an Alabama football jersey, that came with a small blanket. So we're up to 4 Mickeys right now...with the main one being his favorite of course.

Re: Growing Up With Mickey
I've been "keeping up with the BIGs" on facebook, but I usually don't comment...
He is getting more and more adorable, and the smile on his face always brings a smile to mine. Cbog40 and I both think he kinda resembles Mario Lopez with those killer dimples!
Happy Birthday Mrs./Mommy BIG!!!!

Re: Growing Up With Mickey
Yes I can see the Mario Lopez aka AC Slater resemblance!
And FYI they have a 25" Mickey plush (and other plush also) on sale at the Disney website for 25 bucks. I know you mentioned about the giant one at Costco.

Haha...yes...DS has Mario Lopez dimples!
Here he is at 33 weeks.

Here he is with Santa from a week ago. Yes...this boy actually liked Santa Claus and did not freak out. We expect he will be scared next year though. Oh...and I brought his Mickey Mouse with us just in case he had trouble smiling for the photographer at the mall. We ended up not needing it though.

Re: Growing Up With Mickey
Great photos BIG. He is certainly stealing the scene from Santa. That is a great looking Santa too!
