Buddies

One of my dearest friends had a little girl just a couple of months after me. Sweet little Karis got to spend an afternoon at our house this week. It was the first time I could see the stark contrast between boys and girls. Well, not to mention I think Ansel was trying to impress her....

Getting ready to watch a movie....

Ansel hasn't quite learned about boundaries...

Becoming a Big Boy

Our little boy is growing up. I can officially say he really isn't much of a baby anymore. This is a fun new season. Everyday he learns something new. He is sitting up on his own, eating solids, analyzes and determines how to get a toy that is just out of reach. He doesn't even like to be rocked to sleep any more. I swear there are days he looks at me like, "I'm a big boy now, Mommy." Here are a few pics and videos of these sweet milestones.

Baby Jail!!

"Is that what I think it is...."

"It is! It is! I found a tag!!" (I'm not sure why he has an obsession with tags, but he love them)
"I'm helping Mommy."

Peek-a-boo!! Or like we say in the south "Pea Pie!"
"Peas!! Yuck!!"

In May Ansel took his first flight to California. We had a wonderful time visiting with family and friends. We were also there for my brothers wedding. It was a beautiful day and we were so honored to be there to witness such a sacred moment. If you would like to watch a few clips from the wedding you can do that here.
This during our layover in Phoenix. Ansel was a little trooper. Giving the thumbs up....he approves this vacation!!
We weren't at my parents house for two minutes before they placed little bubba in an open top jeep...true Californians!!
