One Year Down - Let's Party

Thank you to everyone who has surrounded Connor & our family with love and prayers during the first year of his life. He is so lucky and blessed to have so many people who love him (as is evidenced by the pile of loot)!

First Haircut

It may have been traumatic for mommy to see all my curls drop to the ground, but I handled it like a pro.

Happy boy

Babysitter Extraordinaire

Nana was out of town, but that didn't stop Grandpa from sitting for me and this is how mommy & daddy found us when they got home.

He keeps a good eye on me, doesn't he?

Spaghetti Dinner

I love it in my belly almost as much as I love it on my face!

Be Mine, Valentine

Go Team!

I may be in 'Skins country, but this year my gift was being a good luck charm for daddy's team. GO GIANTS!

A face to love

For 9 1/2 months I've been making the "poop" face and although I can't figure it out, mommy & daddy think it's absolutely hysterical and just wanted to share.

All Bundled Up

A little cold weather doesn't slow me down - I'll take my walks any way I can get them.

Tied up with a Bow

Santa made sure to deliver the perfect gift - a healthy & happy baby tied up in a bow.

Trimming the Tree

Perfect job for nine months old - testing the lights..... and mom thought I wouldn't be able to help this year

Breakfast with Santa at BHCC

Pictures were fun, Santa was cool, but it's the pancakes that will keep me coming back year after year.

All Dressed Up, Let's Take Pictures

On Santa's lap

I wasn't too sure about the big guy in red, but I took him in stride and didn't shed a tear.

Fun in a Box

You really have to wonder about what would possess two relatively normal people to put me in a box for their own amusement and a photo-op.....but there you have it, the people who have been chosen to raise me.

Christmas all Advent Long

First day of December & the presents have already started. Thank you Aunt Pam for the Alphabet Pal - I love it!

Alexandria Christmas Walk

It may be cold outside, but that didn't slow us down from kicking off the Christmas season in Old Town Alexandria.

Ahoy there Matey

New Hat

Grandpa Halsted thinks every young man needs a Greek Fisherman Hat.......lucky for him they sell them at Janie & Jack - go figure.

Fall Fun

There's nothing like a crisp fall day to motivate mommy to break out the camera and snap a few photos of her growing boy.
