Happy 13 Months!!

Happy 13 Months Bubba!

It is so fun watching you grow and learn new things.  We love watching you take everything in you are a very curious little man

Here's your 13 on 13

1.  Plane trip #6, Mommy needed to take a special trip to wrap my loving arms around Erica and Greg.  We love you so much Angel Avery xoxo

2.  When you like something you make a cute little noise mmmmmmm, you do this a lot when you eat :)

3.  Speaking of food you love to eat!  You will eat whatever we have for dinner and we have to watch how much we put on your tray otherwise you'll double fist it in your mouth.  

4.  You love sand you will crawl on the sandy beach for hours you laugh very loud when daddy covers you in it

5.  You love dogs.  When daddy takes you to our neighbor Lloyd's he has 4 dogs you will hysterically laugh at them or when you see a dog you smile so big

6.  You play with your hair to soothe yourself to sleep or when mommy is holding you you will reach your arm around my neck to play with my ponytail

7.  You like to be flipped around by daddy

8.  You like to push your cars and trucks all around

9.  You love balls

10.  You're back to being excellent sleeper at night, whewww

11.  You love sweets you take after daddy

12.  You wave bye bye

13.  When you get very excited you hold your arms up in the arms "so big" and yell dada dada dada dada, you are very easy to get excited just start dancing

13 precious moments

We are looking forward to having so much fun with you this summer its almost here!!!  We love you soo much

End of School Year 2011-12

This school year went as fast as blinking my eye!  Maybe because I loved this Kindergarten class they made it easier to go to work as I kissed you goodbye every morning.  They are a cuddly bunch and they absolutely love my family I get notes and pictures every morning for you and Mr. Gill :)  It will be hard to say goodbye and as a venture to a new school I hope my coworkers keep me updated on these little cuties.  So you and daddy gave my class a surprise visit yesterday!

I have a class website but I wanted to share a few of these precious pictures

 You love my class and will cry to be put down with them on the carpet

This is one is my favorite you wanted to watch the movie just like them :)

You had so much fun visiting us all year they LOVE you!!

Enter Sandman

You were born to be a beach baby!!

We love our trips to the beach you have so much fun crawling in the waves, napping in the shade and most of all playing in the sand!!

This time you ate very little sand :) but it was in every possible crevice in your body!  Thanks pinterest for the baby powder trick it really works miracles

Parent/Child Dedication

Daddy and I love God and we enjoy taking you to church on Sundays.  This Mother's Day we were extra excited to partner with the church in this special dedication.

Our wish is to raise you with this same love

 Thanks Auntie Deanna and Uncle Blaine for my special teddy it says 

Love the Lord your God with all your heart!

It was a beautiful day followed by a wonderful Mother's Day lunch

Happy Mother's Day!

As a child you walked before me,
To lead by example.
As a teenager you walked behind me
Looking out for my back
and being there when I needed you.
As an adult you walk beside me
So that, as two friends,
we can enjoy life together..
Happy Mothers' Day, Mom!!

May I be 1/2 the mom you are to me xoxo

Birthday Boy

Happy 1st Birthday Bubba!

Mommy took off from work and we enjoyed the day together, we first visited the Dr. for your well checkup

Everything went great, time for whole milk and sippy cups!

You were scheduled for your shots on Tuesday but you spiked a high fever that day :( it was so sad to see you so sick but you bounced right back!

 Then breakfast at Panera's

 Since you LOVE water we thought you would love playing in the fountains

at first you were very hesitant 

 okay Pops this is pretty cool

 then you were brave enough to play in them alone :)

 You had so much fun next time we'll get you water shoes

After a afternoon nap we headed out for an early birthday dinner

It was a relaxing day before the BIG Whale Tale of a birthday party!
