Yummy!
Special thanks to Caroline and Lucy for helping Austin blow out his candles and open presents. He definitely could not have done it without you.

One Year Check Up

Austin had his one year check up today and everything is looking good. Here he is waiting to see the doctor. Little does he know that he is getting two shots and has to give a blood sample. He handled it like a pro.
He is now 30 in (59%), 21 lbs 8 oz (31%) and his head is 19 in (93%). Sorry about the big noggin kiddo.

March Madness

What a difference a year makes. Both of these pictures were taken during March Madness, above is Austin's very first experience with "The Big Dance" and below is Austin enoying boy time and watching some basketball with Dad.Our friends Josh and Stacy came over to enjoy some March Madness action. They brought their new puppy, Kona, to enjoy some puppy playtime. Austin and Sunny loved Kona and hopes that she can come back real soon.

Visit to Houston

We took a trip to Houston to meet Austin's new cousin Nathaniel. Here are Marian, Austin, Amanda and Nathaniel in the garden.
Austin, Marian and Jon planting seeds in the garden.
Austin loved to shake the seed packets. They made a great noise.
We also visited Austin's great-grandfather, PaPa, in Baytown.
On the way home, we stopped at Woody's and Austin got his first taste of jerky.
