Now that I have your attention...

After awhile of no new posts - I have finally updated our website with loads of pictures from January, Vacation & Christmases. It is hard to believe we are already a month into the new year - pretty soon my little guy is going to turn 1! His newest tricks are doing "so big" (about 50% of the time) and putting all kinds of food (and his pacifier) in his month. He seems very pleased with this new independence - and I really appreciate having cherrios entertain him from time to time!

Hope you enjoy the pictures-
