The David Boogie

Direct TV offers XM Radio music through the television. I found a station that plays kids songs. When David and I get home at the end of the day I will put on the music in the background while he plays.

He loves music and loves to dance. Check out what we like to call the "David Boogie".

A Birthday Bash & 100 Degrees

Thank you to all who came out and suffered what was probably the most hazy, hot and humid day of the entire summer to help us celebrate David's first birthday!

We had a great time - sweat and all! I guess that is what you have to expect when you have an August Birthday!

David's One Year Portraits!

Two weeks ago we went to Target (yes they have a portrait studio in some locations) to get our first family professional pictures done. I think they came out OK. I wish it weren't so hot because my face is blotchy and red and my hair is frizzy. Oh well, like I said they're alright.

We had to get the picture of David eating the baseball - well because it's totally David!

He's Growing!

At David's 9 month check up he was in the 10th percentile for his height and weight. He was our little Pee Wee not even fitting into the 9 month cloths.

Today he is pretty much on track. Check out David's 12 Month Stats:

Height: 29 1/2 inches (between 25% and 50%)
Weight: 20 lbs (15%)
Head: 18.5 cm (between 50% and 75%)

He even fits in 12 month clothes! I was disappointed that the cute PJ's I had been getting David from Carter's stop at 9 months. They sell footie's in 12 months but they were pretty lame so we decided to upgrade David to the two piece PJ's. He is so freakin' cute in his new PJ's - I don't miss the old ones at all! The pants are just a touch long but otherwise they fit perfect!

Learning Bad Habits

As David grows up, we've started to notice more habits that remind us of dear old mom. The most obvious is that he eats EXACTLY like she does. You can get some sense of it in this video. When David eats, one hand goes in the mouth while the other searches for more food, he chews with his mouth open (one of my favorite habits that he shares with the missus), and if there is no food left for him to grab, he gets upset - even when his mouth is already full!

Just for a full sense of things, this video was taken while he was working on his second cup of yogurt after he had already downed a bowl of cherioes and a cup of milk.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID!

This is our big boy playing with his favorite toy - a birthday gift from his buddy Maddie. He loves to bounce it all around the room and chase it as it rolls. He goes for his one year check up on Monday and we'll find out just how much bigger he has grown.



Happy First Birthday!

David's First Year in Video!

One year ago at this time we were at the hospital perparing for our little guys arrival. At this point I was feeling pretty good (I had gotten the epidural two hours earlier)! The Doc was eating his chinese food in front of me while I enjoyed a nice large cup of ice chips. Mmmmm...ice chips.

So if you enjoyed the picture slide show then you're gonna love this video montage!

David's First Year!

This year flew by! I can't believe in just three days our little guy is going to be one! I put together this slide show of our favorite pictures over the last year.



*Disclaimer - This video is LONG! But it's pictures of David so it's totally worth your time!!

It's Been Five Years...

Five years ago today the Doc and I said "I Do". It's kinda weird to think that we've been married for that long already. Stephie is in town this weekend and she took us out for dinner to one of our favorite places - El Azteca. We all celebrated with Margaritas - the best in town!

We came back put the little man to bed and ate our Cold Stone Creamery! It was really nice and relaxing and we finished the evening off with Monk and Psych . As a gift to ourselves the Doc and I are going to replace our old tube TV (that he's had since college and is dying) with a nice 27" LCD flat screen!

Happy Anniversary to Us!

Dancing and...

Check out this new video - and if you watch it really closely you can see David's latest feat.
