Rare snuggle moments!


I cherish these little snuggle moments that he gives me lately. He likes to be close when he wants to nurse and I just love it. He's starting to get a tad clingy in a new place but soon realizes that if he has an audience, he would rather get down and perform for them than stay in Mom's arms!

Getting ready for Christmas!

Aren't I something special!


Even though I can't hold still for long I did pretty good with this little photo shoot! I am a ham and like the camera. I just want to touch it and they won't let me! I try my best to "sit and look pretty" but it's hard.....especially when they put these hats on me! Argh!

I Love my Daisy!


Daisy and I were searching for the one special toy!


I decided to give her a helping hand!
I love playing with Daisy! I laugh as she sprints by me. I try to crawl along to keep up with her but she's way too fast! While she's sleeping on the couch I like to smack her in the head sometimes or poke at her eye. It's intended to express my love for her but it scares her. She gets back at me though by constantly licking me in the face when Mom isn't looking. We get along pretty good though. Daisy has always protected me from strangers ever since I came home from the hospital. She's a good dog and I'm glad that she's only chewed one of my toys. I tend to play with her toys more than she plays with mine!

My first real boo boo!


I cut my little finger on Saturday night. I was trying to touch Mommy's paper cutter and somehow managed to cut myself while Mommy was sitting right there. It was pretty tramatic for me and for Mom and Dad.
I took it like a man though. I'm brave! I'm almost ONE!

Amazed by my little man!

It feels like just yesterday I was bursting at the seams just to see my little one's face! Now I'm watching him want to do things all by himself and show me how 'big' he is! He's all boy and he makes me laugh everyday. I feel almost robbed that this past year has gone by so fast. Did I cherish all the memories that I could? Have I made sure to hold him in my arms as long as he will let me? I already miss my baby as I'm watching him grow up so fast. Picking out a 1st birthday card for him this week brought me to tears. Joyful tears that we've been so blessed with this gift of becoming parents and watching this little guy grow and tears that things are changing as they always are...the reminder to savor each moment we have and to be thankful for the little things that happen each day.

I know how to pick out a good tree. Trust me!

That tryptophan really does kick in!


Too much turkey and mashed potatoes!
