Peek-A-Boo!

Well, I am learning more and more every day! I have been so busy trying to learn to walk that I haven't slowed down to post on my blog lately. I am not mobile yet, but I spend almost all day every day working towards that milestone. I have cut two more teeth since last I wrote. One on the top and one on the bottom, and I am working on another one on the top. Mom is hoping it comes in soon so I don't have a goofy looking grin for very long. Today, Mom and I went to lunch with Granny and when we were through eating, Granny played Peek-A-Boo with her napkin. Well, I have got her number on that one. I don't Peek! I keep my head covered and wait for her to tickle me. She and Mom both get such joy from hearing me laugh! Today, mom had her little camera with us and caught this game on video. Check It Out! I'm so cute you will hardly be able to stand it! XO, Jax~

Fun At the Fair

Whew! What a weekend! I am so sleepy, but I just had to post a few pictures from the Lincoln County Fair. It was a long drive over, but Aunt Audi rode in the back seat with me and it was lots of fun! She had on her beautiful Cowgirl hat from Wyoming and her hair was down so I could pull on it all day!

Boy was it hot at the fair...and dusty too! We spent most of the day in the show arena to keep me in the shade. There was lots going on, and Daddy got Elvis and Elliott all cleaned up, hitched to the cart and ready to drive in the parade. Mom took some pictures of the set up, but because it was so crowded, I didn't get to ride this time. Granny thinks I need to be a little more stable on my own before I ride in the cart with Dad. Plus, at a parade, you never know when a horse can spook!

I climbed all over Aunt Audi, drank water out of a bottle (mostly I wore it), tried to play in the dust, and entertained the crowd with laughter in between show classes.

One of the best parts of the day was when Daddy brought me a funnel cake! It was for everyone to share, but guess who got the first bite. Yummy doesn't begin to describe it this time!!! That may be the best thing they have stuck in my mouth yet!

YAWN!!! Going to bed for now...will post more later this week. There are some fun pictures from learning to drive the cart and just some general pictures to add...getting sleepy...ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz

Happy Little Hatmaker

Hey Everybody!

Mom and Dad and I took a little road trip today and I wanted to share some of our adventure. We headed north to Norris Dam State Park to the annual Hatmaker Family Reunion. My granddaddy and Delores from Oklahoma were here. His nickname is Big Daddy. My Aunt Carolyn was there with her family from Enterprise, AL, and my Uncle Bob and Aunt Jackie were here from Texas. I had never met anybody but Big Daddy before, so there were lots of new people to learn and love on.

I got to nibble some home cooked goodies off Mommy's plate and all I can say is Yummy!! Dressing...check, Chicken Casserole...check, Green Beans....check, Macaroni and Cheese....check, Banana Pudding....Check!Check!Check!! I am so tuckered out! What a day.

I did have to crash for about 30 minutes in one of the cabin's bedrooms, but other than that, I didn't miss a beat. We drove Big Daddy down to the overlook and took some pictures of the three generations of Hatmaker Men.

Big Daddy has a picture of him and my Daddy in the same spot when he was a baby.

I was totally full of myself and got very excited about the cars driving by on the dam below. Then I got to swing on the big boy swing on the playground with my cousins! I squealed and giggled all day. I am posting some of the great pictures Mom took, and will post some more when I get them from Big Daddy. Right now I have to get some ZZZzzz's. Tomorrow we are going to the Lincoln County Fair and I can't wait to see all the animals! I'll try to post again, but it may be next week before I get to it. Until then, enjoy my pics!

Hugs,

Jax
