My Baby with Baby

When I turned one Mike and Jen gave me a cabbage patch doll that I named Baby. Original, right? Andrew discovered her today.

Hello Spring! Wait...what?

That's right. It was basically early summer here this week. Andrew really loved being outside without all his knitwear.

So after we got used to all this gorgeous weather, we are having snow tonight. Go figure :)

Cute pictures of my budding reader in the crib this morning:








Also, a flashback treat: in February of 2011, I posted this picture:


This morning, I took this one:



I love my boys.

Tell her!

Our dog Leela likes to beg for dinner early. Andrew is already wise to this.

Andrew learns to strum

Ben finished his acoustic guitar and it is gorgeous! Andrew agrees. He has been drooling (literally) over the pieces for months now. Today he got to play it. Apparently he knows how to use a pick now.

On another note, Josh and I went on a little mini-vacation this weekend. We went down to the beach... without the baby. He did awesome! And so did we. We will definitely be doing that again. :)

Our new favorite song

My Funny Valentine

Bubble Baby

Andrew, Destroyer

It is difficult to say who enjoys the blocks more: Andrew or Daddy.

Kitchen play

Did anybody else notice how many times he followed directions?!?

Guitar toys are his favorite

Sorry you can't see his face. I was being sneaky.

More Snow Day

After our snow adventures, Andrew kept watch by the door, waiting for someone to open it.

I'm sure my faithful blog viewers get tired of Andrew playing the dulcimer, but we think he is just so talented! :)

It has been a fun day so far. :)

Andrew's First Snow

Ok, so it's not actually his first snow, but the first he has gone outside in.

Should be a fun day!

Video catch up day

Big, big baby

He looked like Newborn Andrew this day, just bigger.


Peekaboo!


A little mischievous...


Daddy, can I take your picture?

A food court adventure

Excuse the poor cinematography. The boy was sitting in my lap.

Snapshots of a One Year Old

Josh got bored waiting in the doctor's office for Drew's 12 month check up. Did I mention that my husband is amazing? You should have him take your picture.












I took some less fabulous (but still precious) pictures of him this morning while he was sleeping.



Andrew believes that you should always have a back-up pasie:
