September 7, 2007 at the Red Barn Farm. You can see that he's contemplating something in this picture and sure enough, seconds later he bit this gourd and so we had to buy it!

What a cutie, eh?

Fresh and clean!

"Mine! Mine!" He screams in desperation as he seems me with the camera.

August 2007 at the Washington town and country fair.

Garrison at the mall.

"Doggies" is one of his favorite words to say. Here at Grandma Joyce's they have an outside dog, (Scruffy, not shown) and Bounty (shown) is Lori's (Marc's sister who lives next door) outside dog. Garrison loves to feed them treats...he would do it all day long if we didn't stop him.

Can't you see the pure delight in his face?! Grandpa Larry got baby chicks. We had to watch out for Garrison because he kept wanting to pick them up and sqeeze them just a little so they would squeal. Luckily he didn't do any damage...well, that we know of anyway.

Nathan Palmer is Garrison's cousin. Nathan is so sweet! When he first heard that we were getting a new baby he said, "Well that's not very nice," a few times before Lori (his mom) realized that he thought we were trading in Garrison for a new baby!
