Happy Birthday to the Dude!

So the dude turns one. The week leading up to his birthday was a busy one. Grandpa was going to be out of town on the dude's birthday so we had a party for him a week ago at a restaurant, where he stuffed his face with chocolate cake.



We celebrated his birthday last Saturday to fit everyone's schedule, where he got some cool presents and stuffed his face with more cake. Yesterday, the dude's little friend from his "Mommy and me" class had her 1yr birthday party, and wouldn't you know it, they had cake there too.





We did, however, teach the dude that it is ok to eat that much cake in a week as long as we go swim a few laps over the weekend. So, we enrolled the dude in his very first official swimming lesson. He might have been the youngest kid in the tots class, but he seemed to enjoy it more than every other kid there.

Happy Birthday!

Mommy turned 30 today, and doesn't she look awesome? She had a "cut and color" that turned out to be a "cut and cut and cut and color".

Holidays in New Mexico

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from New Mexico. We hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season. Everyone in New Mexico had a great time and the dude got to meet two cousins for the first time in the matter of a few weeks.

New Addition to the Family

Congratulations to my brother and sister-in-law. Yesterday, they welcomed Camille Christine into the world. Born one day overdue, weighing 7 lbs 7oz and 21 inches long...we couldn't be happier because both baby and mom are healthy!
