Is it Britany and Sean P??? NO...

it's Banks and Daddy!! Banks loves to drive with Taylor. He also likes to blow the horn!
(Note:The car was in park! There is no need to call 911!!)

Cookie Monster

Banks spent the day with Mimi and Papa today. They took him to The Bass Pro Shop where he saw all the animals....he even touched a duck! He loves DUCKS!! Anyway, he was so tired when I picked him up. Mimi gave him a chocolate chip cookie for the ride home. This was how he looked when we pulled in the carport! (Taylor undid some of his belt...it was all the way attached on the drive home.) Notice all the chocolate on his face!! Must have been YUMMY!!!

Daddy's visor

Banks loves to put on Taylor's sunvisor. He kept putting it on and taking it off! He thought it was so funny (which it was)!! Eventhough he does not look like it, he has had the fever virus this weekend. Obviously, the Tylenol was working at this point!

Saturday

We had such a fun Saturday. The weather was beautiful! Banks loves to be outside listening to the birds and looking for airplanes. Taylor has been studying so hard in law school. He took a break for a couple of hours to play! Banks loves his daddy so much. He walks around the house saying "Da da" then he will finally fo in the guest bedroom (where Taylor studies) and scream "DA DA"!! Thanks Taylor for studying so hard for Banks and me. We love you very much!
"Decisions...decisions.....which toy do I play with now?"
Banks was so tired after playing all day...that he literally fell asleep eating supper! Precious!

Touchdown Bulldogs!

Banks was so excited when the Bulldogs FINALLY touchdowned. Taylor, Nise, Poppy, and I all yelled "touchdown bulldogs" and Banks immediately threw his hands in the air!!
"We can wrap this game up in maroon and white....I think I will move my focus to the ice cream!!"

Retro Rocket

"Hey mom...look at me. I am flying through the air with daddy!"
Take off.....
Again, Banks loves is Retro Rocket that Uncle Jeff sent him. It lights up, vibrates, and makes other noises. As you can tell...we are not lacking for toys at the Polk house!!
Taylor and Banks playing "crash"! I am not sure that is the best game to teach him. Oh well....

Banks and Mc

We had a great weekend this past weekend with Mc in town. Banks loves his Uncle Mc! We wish that you lived closer to us so we could see you everyday! Maybe you will get transfered to the beach and we could come stay with you there!!

Banks loves his "truck" at Nise and Poppy's house. Here is Banks showing his real truck to Mc.
Look at me!!!

watching the game

We went over to the Stacy's house last night to watch the MSU game (or that lack of!) Here are Matt and Taylor "lounging". That is right...there was not to much to cheer about. Although Banks had a GREAT time playing with Carter.
Trying to get Banks and Carter to look at the camera at the same time....was absolutely IMPOSSIBLE!! Look how precious they are though. Yes, Banks is eating Carter's new Snow White high heel!!! She walks like a little princess (that she it) in them.
Banks playing "peek-a-boo" with all of us.
Banks and Carter both loved playing with Elmo. Thanks Stacys for having us over and to Carter for sharing all of your toys! We had a great time!!

Banks and Will

We went to the pool this afternoon with Will Nesbitt! He is growing up so fast. Banks loved watching him swim! Will is so cute and smart!

Can you find me?

After supper last night, Banks was playing and cleaned out these two cabinets and proceeded to get his legos and crawl in! He is growing up so fast and becoming an explorer!!

Happy Birthday Reagan

Reagan (my cousin) and one of her friends had a duel birthday party Friday night with "High School Musical" as the theme. They all went to dinner then a limo came and picked up ALL the girls (18 of them), rode them around town for a little while, then brought them home where the rest of the party was. Notice the red carpet that all the girls walked down after getting out of the limo!! Reagan loved her present from her mom and dad....a chi-poodle (chiwahwah-poodle mix!!)
Here is Reagan getting out of the limo about to walk down the red carpet! Such a movie star!!
Here comes the limo full of girls!!
Banks had to have a walk down the red carpet also!!
Hayes walking down the red carpe!!! All she was really interested in was getting the lizard out of Mrs. Debroah's closet!!

Yum Yum!!

Banks is such a big boy now! He loves chicken nuggets, carrots, and grapes. That has pretty much become a staple around here!

More bday pictures!!

Banks loves the hard hat that came with one of his trucks and legos!
Look at my hat and my new firetruck that Mimi and Papa gave me!!
"Hmmm do I want to ride on my car or my firetruck?" Such decisions!
"Look at the Radio Flyer Rocket Uncle Jeff sent me all the way from New York!" Thanks Uncle Jeff...we miss you!!!
Taylor pushing Banks on "The Rocket" all through the house!!

Happy Birthday Banks!!!

Looks at all of Banks' presents. He is so special to so many people (especially his momma and daddy!!We had a great time tonight at Banks' birthday party. So many family members and friends. Taylor and I were talking about what we were doing at this time last year. Time really does seem to go so fast. Thank you to all that came to celebrate with us. We love you all!
Banks loved his cake and ice cream. It is so nice that he can have dairy products now and I do not have to be the "bad mom" for not letting him have them!!
