Rain Rain go away...

We were looking forward to going to the beach this weekend but Mother Nature had a different plan... we woke up to Rain, Rain, Rain!!  So we cuddled a little longer and played in our jammies a little longer!

A little rain won't stop me from having fun!

Toys, Toys, Toys!!!

You're almost a big 1 year old and that means mommy started putting away your baby things and started organizing your play room with all your big boy toys!!  Yes it has happened our home has turned into Fun Depot!!

 sorry its the best pic I could take

 You are one lucky boy to have so many fun toys!

but one of your favorite things to play with is books!!

You love to the turn the pages and pretend to read it is so cute

Swings

This week has brought a swing of emotions for me!  It's all about God's timing and his plan... after 10 years at my school I'm happy and proud to say I'll be teaching 1st Grade at a wonderful school 5 minutes from home here in sunny Florida!  Change can be scary and intimidating but I know this is the best for my family :)

We are Family

This is a little late but in February we had our wedding photographer take a family photo shoot of us at the park behind our house

I love love love pictures now my house is swarmed with pictures I'm running out of wall space

Happy 1st Birthday in NJ!!

GJ and Pops went over and beyond on your special 1st Birthday celebration in NJ!  

Here's a peek at your very special day!

 Peanut the Pony!!

 Peanut the Pony was a fast little guy and you rode him like a true cowboy!

He also posed for lots of pictures with your family and friends!

Great Times Great Memories

It wouldn't be a birthday party without cake and presents!!

 One of my favorite parts of the day was when we sang Happy Birthday.  You looked around at the all the singing faces and smiled back, then you were a little hesitant with the cupcake but after a few seconds...

 you chowed down!!!

I know this blog was a little long but I wanted to make sure I included everyone from your special day!!  We had so much fun we are so blessed to have so many people that care and love for you so much!

A special thank you to GJ and Pops we LOVE you so much!!!!  You're simply the best!
