My little boy

So in love with cars and trucks....just like his big brothers.

Seriously, how have I NOT devoured this child by now????
How I love to watch him play so intently, focused on the wheels spinning. And his newest addition is the sound of the engine.
Cutest. Noise. Ever. :)

A whole new view

What do you think about the view from up here??
You pulled yourself up to stand today using all those beautiful big muscles you've been working so hard to grow.
Oh my....so this is what this looks like from up here!




And you were SO proud!
As was your Mama who had to restrain herself from smothering you with kisses....standing there with those thighs was like hanging a carrot in front of a horse :).

THIS is how you read a book

Books are some of his favorite things (just like his brothers!). But Jonathan has a very special way of reading them....





by sitting directly on top of them (if they're big enough)). And then figuring out how to scoot just enough to get that next page up and over :).
Apparently this is a theme....it's how we "start" a puzzle too :)

MY ND BOYS!

It's finally here! College Game Day is back for the 2015 season and the Leonardo team is ready!
Oh how I love these boys and their ND pride!
Carrying on Leonardo tradition. Sam and his ND boys! Thanks for singing the fight song for us Stanford!


I'm not sure that anyone can look more delicious in a jersey onesie! :)

GO IRISH!

PARTY TIME!

We celebrated your first birthday in style!! :)



Your nursery has been filled with teddy bears and you remind us of a teddy bear :) so we thought it only fitting to make your party a teddy bear's picnic! :)
We were very excited to celebrate with Mimi and Ga who came to be with you on your special day
(and per tradition, helped Mama with your cakes!) and with Ms. Carol and Mr. Charlie.






This was your very first taste of sugar.....and you were quite entranced by it all! You used both hands to shovel in the goodness :) after figuring out that the sticky stuff on your fingers tasted really good :). 



Deeeliciousness in every sense of the word!!!




Birthday Selfie :)

Excuse me while I eat my child..... :)
