Happy New Year!

Between going to and from Giddings and La Porte last week, I decided to take a break from blogging. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

We spent Christmas weekend in La Porte with my family. We had a great time seeing all the kids anddd of course, staying up til 2 or 3 in the morning having some good ol' adult conversation!

Auggie had a few firsts while we were seeing family. He had his first ever Sonic drink! We get 'em hooked early in the Rigby family! Haha. He drank out of Gramma's cup while no one was watching. I was surprised he actually got something from a straw that long.

He's also started to sign bird and say "quack quack" more often. He's even started saying "GO!" when we're playing with his pop-up toy. I'm hoping to get a video of it soon. He always seems to stop just about the time I get my camera going!

Auggie's also working on all four of his premolars. Poor bud! He's been chewing on everything. Luckily he sticks to mostly toys and stays away from dirt, rocks and other yucky stuff. Only one has popped through the skin so I'm sure the other 3 are working their way out. I hope they don't cause too much trouble for him.

We spent New Year's Eve in Giddings. We spent almost 2 hours popping fireworks and playing with sparklers. Auggie liked the fireworks as long as he was in my arms. It was nice being around family for another holiday and even better that Auggie slept through the night in the pack-n-play! We've had some rough nights in pack-n-plays.

I'll have more pictures for you on Thursday but here are some from my phone.

Guess who is working on all FOUR of his
premolars!?!
Yep! That guy!

He enjoys playing with the tool bench.
Within the last few days, he even uses the hammer
on it 

MMM... drum sticks!

He loved following Nathan and Drake around
He is SO ready to be able to run with them!
