MERRY CHRISTMAS 2010

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

It's your 1st Birthday and we are so excited!!

Your family loves you very much Baby.

Happy First!!!!!!!!!

You are saying a few more words now.  You are walking pretty well.  And you love to try to climb.  (Oh no - say the Mama!)  You are such a happy baby!  We are having a BLAST!!!

Cookies = Epic Failure

Cookies = Epic Failure

I wanted to make cookies... but we were out of cookie dough (as in - bought from the store and ready to pop in the oven) so I got on my Hubby's new smart phone, looked up a Betty C recipe for Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies... YUMMY!

Ok, they came out like muffin tops?!!  Seriously!  Not cookies.  And there were TONS of them!

I don't what went wrong....
Well, yes I do... several things went wrong.  I had to cook and cool regular oatmeal because we didn't have quick-cooking oats.  I had to use little Hershey bars broken up instead of semi sweet chocolate chips.  I added nuts and coconut flakes too.  I kept adding flour to get the thickness right because it was super runny.  Crazy....

Oh well... we called them Breakfast Muffin Cookies and ate them anyway!

Happy Birthday Kiki

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!!!!!!!!

We love you and we are very very grateful for you in 1,000 ways!  I hope that your birthday (& our going out to dinner tomorrow night) will be very BLESSED! 

...And MANY MORE!

FIRST STEPS!!

The Baby took his first steps tonight!  He took about three quick steps from the toy (push behind truck) to the sofa.  My Hubby used his phone to make a video, but we could not get him to "re-do" the steps on camera.  Yay for a milestone!  Walking at 11 months... yikes!

GA Aquarium

Yay for Kiki and Gran Gran giving our toddler man tickets to the GA Aquarium for his birthday!  Today was our day to go to Atlanta and we really enjoyed it!  The largest tank is the size of a football field and hold 4 whales (not full grown yet) and could hold up to 6 full grown whales!  There were huge sting rays and lots of sharks too!!  The kids had fun and we all really enjoyed seeing SO MUCH!  We played at the park afterward and took our time getting back home.  It was a great day!

HAPPY 11 Months Old to our wonderful little man! 

You are a joy and delight to our whole family!  You love to laugh.  You are talking and saying cute things. You pull up on the sofa and play table all day... you'll be walking any day now. You can stand alone.  You make a funny face and love to dance and act silly.  You are still nursing and very healthy.  You are getting so tall and growing lots more hair (cute little curls in the back)

WE LOVE YOU BABY!

Happy Birthday Uncle
