Rollin' With My Homie

Little Man's friend, JR, came over a few Sundays ago. They are both pulling up and standing now, which made play time more fun for everyone!

After a while, they asked to head down to the neighborhood park, so we busted out the double stroller. I think it took us 20 minutes to walk 4 blocks because we were taking so many pictures!

The dads had fun, too - it was a fabulous spring day! Hooray for friends, parks, and sunshine!

You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry

At least, that is what I think he is going for....

...not really working. It's too cute! And it is accompanied by a lengthy huff and puff and a more furrowed brow.

On A Boat

While in FL, Little Man took his first ride on a boat! We took the water taxi from our hotel over to the Universal property.




He really enjoyed the wind in his face! I love this age, where he so clearly experiences new things but still doesn't have words, only expressions!

Third Cousins

I looked it up online, and apparently, if you share great-great-grandparents you are third cousins.

This is Little Man's third cousin, Not-As-Little Man.


NSLM has an older sister and twin older brothers.


They all sat nicely for a few shots, then LM made a break for it. They had a great time playing, and their mom and I (Second Cousins) had a great time catching up!


We're hoping to get to see more of them before they ship out to Alabama. So grateful for the time we go to spend together, so fun to introduce LM to his family - no matter the degree!

Family Time

I had a conference in Orlando last week and it was like we took off from winter and landed in summer. It was awesome.

We got to spend time with Frank's parents, and his aunts and uncle, and his grandmother, too!



With all of the family in town, Frank and I got to spend some fantastic time with each other (sans baby!). Including an afternoon at Universal's Islands of Adventure!

Little Man had quite a bond with his Grampa by the end of the week.


It was so fun to get to spend time with Frank's family - I'm so glad they got so much good time with Little Man, too!

Teeth!

Little Man has two teeth. Trying to get a picture of them can be dicey...





He is officially a carnivore now, too. He has had turkey, chicken, and beef. LM is quite adventurous - he even tried Thai the other night!

11 Months

This was tough - Little Man was born on March 30th, so we always (or nearly always) took his picture on the 30th of each month.

February, even this year, doesn't have a 30th. So we felt that gave us license to be really late - I think we took these on March 3rd. Oops.



Sitting still is not one of his things right now. But furniture surfing, and walking with minor assistance are his things.

He even started to stand without holding anything - for as many as 5 seconds!
