One Years Old and Family Photos

Calvin turned the big 1 yesterday and wow can I tell you how weird it felt... I can't believe that a year has already gone by and so much has happened in just one year.  A few weeks ago Calvin and I had some fun taking pictures in our backyard. He is quite the poser and i was eating up every moment of it. And i took so many and they all turned out so cute that I couldn't help but post them all -- i have way to hard of time choosing just a couple. 
I can't tell you how much I love this boy of mine. I'm bias but I just think I have the cutest boy in town. 
Calvin's year one embarked many fun adventures and new discoveries. 
Was born at momma's end of school battle
Had his first Christmas in Utah
Could lift his head up at 2 weeks
Hated being on his belly
Started sitting up at 5 months
First road trip to St. George
Gave kisses 4 months and still does
Lived in 3 different homes
started crawling 10 months
Moved to Texas
says and waves hi and bye
sings la la la
signs more/food
crawls up the stairs
His favorite toys are plastic spoon and his gas relief bottle or mini tub of toothpaste
loves to read, dance and eat
Favorite foods: any fruit, ice cream, grilled cheese, bread + jam, cooked carrots
Favorite book: llama llama
Loves to be with people especially mommy and daddy



I sure love my cute boy! It has been one eventful and fun year. can't wait for more memories with you.
We celebrated by getting him a red wagon and the best part is that it was free. We had dinner with some friends and ate some yummy apple cheesecake bars = Heavenly.. I'll have to post this on the cooking blog. 

I planned his party for this upcoming sat because his cousin (that lives here) has the same bday as him but sadly everyone but one family I invited couldn't make it to the party... how crazy is that. ha so we are just doing a dinner, cake and ice cream on Sunday to celebrate 















 Here are the Family Photos we took in the summer awhile back I said I would post them. well here they are.

  3. So were you telling him to blow his lips like that? Love it! I loved all of those pictures and I just miss mister calvin. Wish I could've been there to celebrate his first birthday with all of you. Can't believe you already have a 1 year old!
