Merry CHRISTmas to all!

We are so blessed this Christmas! We have two fabulous boys. We have so many wonderful friends and family members who have supported us on our journey over the last year. We want you all to know how much your thoughts and prayers mean to us. We are so appreciative of every ooh and ahh that Kouper receives. We think he is perfect and all of you guys look at him that way too. We didn't think we'd get to this point so quickly, but we have.

May you have peace and love over the holidays. Enjoy all of God's blessings and remember the reason for the season.

Santa Claus!

Here are the pictures of Kayson and me around the same age (12 months). Both pictures were taken at North Star Mall with the one and only Santa Claus! Both of us had the same reaction, as you can see! I think he might have pinched us! Oh well... as long as he brings me some great presents all is forgiven.

Doing great!

I went to see Mr. Wenske on Wednesday with mommy and daddy. He added on to my conformer (which is a beautiful shade of blue!!!) to help expand the opening in my eye. He added about a 1/4 inch to the thickness of it. When he took it out it wasn't so bad... but putting it back in was another story. It took 3 tries to finally get it back in. It's so hard for me because daddy has to basically pin me down while Mr. Wenske puts it in. It's hard for mommy and daddy to watch me scream. But we all know that it's for my own good. There was some good that came out of the visit. Connie, who helps out Mr. Wenske, had a birthday present for me! She is in the photo above with me, but that was taken in September. She gave me a cool piano that I love to bang on! I love Mr. Wenske and Connie even though our visits aren't so fun. I also got to see Santa Claus... but I feel just like my brother Kayson did at 12 months... Santa is one scary dude! I'll post both of our pictures with Santa soon!

Why?

Why am I obsessed with trash cans? Who knows, but I love them. Especially the kitchen one, it swivels.

Prinka and me!

Not me!

No mom, that wasn't me who unrolled the toilet paper! Who could do such a thing?

Thanksgiving pics

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. My great aunt and uncle came down from Arkansas and brought my cousin Cameron too. He is funny and likes to play with me. My uncle Todd also was here from Albuquerque. I was a little scared of all that hair, but I warmed up to him eventually. We also had the Stadtmuellers over and the Shaos. It was fabulous. After that we went to see my Meme and Popo in New Braunfels. Mabel their pet deer greeted us and she is so sweet. I got to see my cousins Audry and Ella and we had a fun time.

Where is that yummy stuff?!

I know that mommy always gets my food out of here! Where is it? There's got to be something delicious in my reach!

My party celebrating the first 12 months of life!

I had a fabulous birthday party at my house! As you can see I loved my eggless cake! Okay well maybe I didn't get to the actual cake part, but the icing was darn good! I had lots of family and friends over and they were all here because of me! How special did I feel that day? I am so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends! Can I have my birthday every day??

Thank you Chelsea and Papa for taking such awesome pictures!
