First kisses

We had a wonderful, low-key Valentines day this year. Our first with a little
one in tow. So much fun! I spruced up some ol' pillows for the occasion and baby g? Well, he was busy giving/getting his first kiss with little miss a.


busting a move...

ahh! sweet love!

isn't innocence bliss? (and adorable?!)

A bundle of firsts...

With each passing day comes a new adventure and discovery in the life of our little man g.
Sorry pictures are the closest thing to a plane ticket we can send you, dear grandparents...
come visit anytime!! :)


1st climb under the changing table.


1st time walking with mama bee in this carrier. (thanks lara!)
doesn't he look so cuddly small?



1st discovery of pulling himself up and finding
the shiny DVD player & remotes!




1st taste of the shade string.



1st encounter with the shoe basket.



1st visit to a temple (Washington, DC).

1st time leaving something on his head (thanks J!)
for longer than a minute.



1st taste of a fruit leather- go grape!



1st time being caught standing up, babbling, in crib.



1st peak into the pantry.


1st time grocery shopping with a little buddy.:)


1st time showing more interest in "little a" than the camera.



1st time discovering how much fun a pile of grocery bags can be!



1st taste of a Ritz cracker.


and just to document two more firsts:
on Sunday we were looking at a picture of baby Jesus and he said "Jesus". no lie. babies know where they come from!
and not to take away the splendor of that little miracle, today I found his first un-touched Cheerio in his diaper. :)

feed me!

so, at baby g's 9 month check-up apt, good ol' Dr. said his 15 lbs was not going to cut it and to up the anty.
isn't this picture hilarious? so somber.

so i began feeding him solids more often and fed him until i thought his little belly would pop!

he hasn't seemed to mind the extra goodness! his little guppy mouth is poised and ready for some nutrition and we go until i have to roll him out of the high chair!:)

but, don't let this innocent face make a fool out of you...



because here is that same face ready to face plant it during his escape.

oh man! how i love that active little mind of his!
