Hawaii/ Halloween

Doug had a break at the end of October.  So we took a trip to beautiful Hawaii.  Although we were bummed that Rick and Carol couldn't make the trip, we still managed to have fun.  Luckily we had some friends that were already going to be in Hawaii and they flew in to keep us company.  Thanks Todd and Erin!  We had a ton of fun. So this is basically me dumping all of our pictures with bits and pieces of commentary... enjoy!

A peacock?  Seriously?

Happy Halloweenie Folks!

Someone stole Doug's hat... Sad day :(

That's a large bath tub.

Part Two

These are pics from his birthday party.  He wasn't to excited about his cake though.  He barely touched it.....

So Doug and I took the liberty of smearing some of the frosting on him to get a good picture.  I'm satisfied with that.

Some fun facts about Landon at age 1:

Weight: 20 lbs 9 oz. (18 percentile)

Height: 29.5 in (48 percentile)

Head circumference: 18.75 in (83 percentile)

- He looooooves the Backyardigans and Baby Einstein movies.

-He's still not walking or crawling but he's getting closer everyday.

- His favorite part of the day is when Daddy comes home.  Nothing is more exciting.

-He is such a good sleeper.  Usually naps twice a day, but is starting to lean towards just one a day.

-I have a little piggy living with me.  He will eat just about anything but if the texture is wrong he tends to gag and I won't elaborate on what happens next.

- Loves to swing, go on walks, and being outside.

- Loves his blankie.  He sucks on the corners while he sleeps.

- Still has no teeth...

These just scratch the surface of the things that make little Landon the cute boy he is.  I can't believe that he's getting so big, but I couldn't be more happy that he's mine.  We love him so much!

Happy Birthday Landon!

Well folks my baby boy isn't a baby anymore.  He turned one on November 3rd.  Here is a little picture run down of his 1st year month by month.  

Happy Birthday Handsome Boy!  We're so glad you came to our family.  We love you!

My Little Landon

These are just random pictures I had of my baby boy that I wanted to show everyone...he's such a happy boy :)

 Those of you who know grandpa Jim.....know why this proves that Landon is related to him.

 In heaven...he gnawed on this sucker for a good 45 min.

In the spirit of Halloween.....Does this not look like Casper the friendly ghost???  He definitely got his Mom's fair skin.  LOVE this kid.

Aunt Casey's and Country Living Fair

  A few weeks ago Landon and I were lucky enough to get to go back and visit Aunt Casey and family.  We always have so much fun when we get to see them.  My mom and my other 2 sisters met us there and we got to go to the Country Living Fair.  It was a lot of fun.  Although Landon did have a total melt down for about an hour.  However, it was a total success...and the Amish pumpkin cookies were delicious!

My favorite people :)

 

 We couldn't resist the Kettle corn stand. :)

Landon and Kate...

 can't enough of these two

Tubby Time

My cute nieces Sadie and Norah.  These two crack me up.
