WALKIN...FOR YOUR LOVE.

Well, the big day has finally arrived. Abraham is a walker! He's been taking steps for a while, but he is consistently taking many more together now. We have a quick video just to let you see. When Aber's is walking, he likes to have his arms way up in the air, rolling his wrists around. I guess it helps with the balance. Enjoy!

We are in the process of rearranging our house today, so this is it for now.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! May 2010 be as exciting as 2009.

Love
The L-Bs.

11 months old

Favorite zoo activity...feeding the giraffes!

Whoa!

Hard to believe we have an 11 month old person living in this house. It feels like no time at all has passed and I was gigantic, anxiously awaiting the arrival of some baby we now call Abraham!! The developments as of late: 11 teeth still with 1 more molar just about through. We have quite the make-out artist on our hands. He loves to give big, open mouth, slobbery kisses. Beware to any visitors making their way out here! Aber's is also very, very mobile. He has actually taken 6-7 steps on his own without realizing what he's doing. Once he figures it out though, he face plants and giggles.

As for his measurements, he is 23# and 32 inches, give or take. Anybody that's out this way is welcome to come over on January 17th for a 1st birthday party!

Stay warm. Get outside. Merry Christmas!

Love
The L-B's.

Happy Hanukkah


Happy Hanukkah to those that celebrate this holiday. It is a first for Abraham this year. David has been teaching him about the menorah, the number of candles, and what it all means. Abraham, of course, is amazed by the flames on the candles. He also thinks the paper is fun to play with. He's not too worried about what's inside yet. Enjoy!

Opening presents with mom's help! A Luxury yacht to help make our troubled bath time more fun!

On his way to the "Abraham train", a wooden toy that Mickey Landry helped us find in the French Quarter, New Orleans. At this point, the McDonald's cup was perhaps of more interest to Abers!

Even Toiyabe had a good time opening Hanukkah presents this year.

Thanksgiving

Sorry for the delay! Hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving. We were lucky enough to have turkey day with both of our families. We celebrated with my family on Wednesday and then headed to MSP on Thanksgiving to celebrate with David's. It was a fun trip to see David's brother and family. As always, Mom had to get her Black Friday shopping trip in, just not with Grandpa this year. David stepped up to the plate and took Abraham and I shopping. It was a very bizarre morning as absolutely no one was out at the Target we went to at 0700. The food was great, the weather was beautiful, and we're glad we got to visit! Enjoy the pictures...Colorado Thanksgiving
