A year ago today...

Matt and I got engaged. 1 year later and all the planning that I have done so far is a tentative guest list...ha!

It was also a year ago today, that I told my family that I was pregnant. Everyone was so suprised and so happy. Now he's here and celebrating his first Christmas. What a whirlwind this year has been.

This is how Matt dressed MJ today

Matt changed MJ's diaper after a huge blowout...I will spare you the details but this is how I found MJ afterwards.

uhhh, I think you forgot something...........

Photoshoot for Aunt Liz!

He smiles like this when he sees the camera

"MOM, what's this thing on my head?"

I love you, Auntie Liz!

Big brown eyes

Happy 30th...

to one of my favorite people in all the land. As you are celebrating this important milestone, I want you to know that you are a beautiful person inside and out. This is our 12th year of friendship. I'm so lucky to have you as my friend. Love you!

Wise words from a favorite blogger....

"It's a startling thing that takes place the very second you enter into motherhood (and I'm talking as soon as you get pregnant, or even make the serious decision to endeavor to become a parent). You are ushered unknowingly through doors that don't open again behind you. You are subject to all new levels of fear, and pain, and loss, excitement, and love, and complete joy and amazement. It's the most difficult and rewarding thing I will ever commit myself to. I have never felt more needed and in need at the same time. What a delicious dichotomy, motherhood."

Well it happened...

MJ was sitting in his bumbo, enjoying his favorite pasttime...watching Charley eat a bone. Well MJ decided to grab the bone and was hold it while Charley went to town chewing on the the other side. It was so cute but I was too slow with the camera. It was then that MJ decided to try it out himself. Yep, he stuck the rawhide in his mouth. YUCK! haha....josie grossie for sure.
Here are some other pics of the best buds....

PS: Check out those thighs!!! Rolls on top of rolls.

Merry Xmas to all!
