Happy First Birthday JAMES!!!!

I can't believe where this year has gone! 7lb 7oz Sweet Baby James is now 22lb Big Boy James! James kicked off his First Birthday with a nap as guests began to arrive. After dinner, I woke back up the birthday boy for the festivities...

The Birthday Boy and his Big Brother looking so excited to be posing for a picture...

Those Big Blue Eyes!

James did not like his cake...

But all the other kids sure did, heehee!

Fine, I'll put my finger in...but I'm not going to like it

All in All a Fabulous First Birthday Party! Thanks, as always, to Nonna and Grumpy for all the help! Thanks also to Aunt Becca for the crafty help! The party could not have happened with out you all!

More Playground Fun!

YaY SpRiNg!!!

It was Finally nice enough yesterday to take the boys to the park! And what a difference a few months make! William not only climbed the tower but went down the slide and enjoyed the swings!! We had a blast!

James enjoyed the swings so much he began to fall asleep!

William and Mater going "highest of all!!"

James chilling in the tunnel...

James resting on the bench! The park is exhausting for an 11 month-old!

William going down the SLIDE!!! YEAH!!!

And He STANDS!

James is Finally pulling himself up on Everything! The walking part is going to take a lot more coordination! HeeHee! And yes, still not wearing socks!

...And Drinks from a Straw! HeeHee!

Ballard Boy Fun!

William and James cruising the grocery store!

They enjoyed the box more than the chair that came in it!

Perfect Fit!

James First Haircut!

James had a big Wed! He had his First Haircut! Sorry we have only after shots, my assistants were shopping next door while he had it done! But he was so good and now looks like such a big boy! James also STOOD up for the first time yesterday!!! He is growing up so fast!

William also got his hair cut yesterday too. And in William style he had to play with my phone while he had it done. This is his self portrait of what it's like for William to get his hair cut! HeeHee!!

Thanks to the Nonna who has been with us the past two weeks while the Daddy has been working! We got so much done!! Love ya!

Outside Fun!

Finally a warm day in the neighborhood!!

Willie teaches Jeb to use sidewalk chalk! The beauty of doing it with Jeb is he cleans up as he goes!!
