Paper Hat

No we are not that mean, this is a game he came up with and loved.  The paper hat game, put on, take off, it's so much fun!

Ball

What do all of these pictures have in common?  In each one Myron is wearing his new birthday duds and say he favorite word -- ball!  He calls all balls 'baaa', and calls watermelons, apples and really anything round.. 'baaa' and every time he does mommy and daddy cheer with delight.

Sweepin

Mommy and daddy got tired of trying to sweep when I was asleep, so now I have my own broom and love it!  Let me explain, every time mommy would sweep I really really really wanted the broom.  She would allow me to help but every time she would put the broom away I would get upset and when she would let me play with it longer my arms would get so tired from that heavy broom I would get upset.  Poor mommy is was a lose - lose situation.  But now that I have my own kid size broom I can sweep for over an hour and my arms do just fine.  Now everyone is happy!

Myron's Big Top

For Myron's first birthday he picked out a red 'lady bug' tent and loves playing peek through the spots.

P.S. He also got three Sesame Street Puppets in the mail (which he loves) but we don't know who to thank, so thank you mystery puppeteer.

Valentines Day

We had a great valentines day!  We went for a really long walk to a store called 'baby cakes' and I mommy picked up my very first cake.

When we got home I was eager to try it.

I started apprehensively.

And then the frosting got on my fingers...

I didn't like that.

Then I discovered the cake part and it was all yum... yumo from there.

My last first Christmas

On Saturday I had my last first Christmas with Nana Dot, Auntie Amanda, Grace, Aunite Amy, Noah and Ivan.  There were so many presents to open, but my favorite was the blanket Nana Dot and Auntie Amanda made.  I played with and cuddled into it for almost an hour.

Peek... here I am.

I also showed daddy the moon, while we were there. I love the moon.  I point it out every time we are outside (even during the day).

Ivan, Grace and I modeling our matching outfits.  This is the best shot, really the only shot with all three of us in the frame.

Beach Day

The day after Grace's birth (and my birthday) we went to the beach!  I loved it!

It wasn't super hot as you can tell by the sweater and hat but I loved the sand.

  Although it was hard to walk on.

And when I fell on my face the sand stuck to my sun screen and tongue, yuck! 

Nope this isn't me.  My buddy Ivan was along for the fun and we swapped clothes.  He had my outfit and I had his hat.  Together we had all the needed pieces.

Happy 1st Birthday Myron

And Happy Birth Day Grace!

No this is not a picture of Myron, he did not revert to a new born rather on this birthday he got the gift of a cousin!  To quote my Auntie Amanda:

Gracie is here! She came into the world on February 5, 2009 at 6:51am. She weighed 8lbs 1oz, and is 21 inches long.

Much of Myron's birthday was spent at the hospital (or napping) but Myron didn't mind he was just happy to see all the smiling faces.
