1st Birthday picture session

We went to Portrait Innovations for Myers 1st birthday photos today. They took so many great shots, but these are a few of my favorites!

I am one (well, almost)!

What a cutie!

Christmas!

Santa visited our house on Christmas Eve, but...
we already have the best gift ever!

Myers really enjoyed his first Christmas. After the 5pm service at church on Christmas Eve, we ate Chinese take out and then quickly fell asleep. Santa must have visited sometime during the night because he left some really great gifts.

We slept until about 8:00am. Then Myers got to play with his gifts from Santa. After quite a bit of playing we had breakfast together. After breakfast, we started unwrapping the other gifts. It took forever to unwrap gifts because Myers wanted to play with every gift until he got bored with it before he would even look at another gift!

At about 120:00 we were finally finished unwrapping gifts. After just a few minutes Honey and G-Daddy showed up with more gifts! They really spoiled us rotten! Myers played and played and played all day.

It was so nice to get to spend the day resting and relaxing with nowhere to go. We took a walk and played Mexican Train and just enjoyed a laid back Christmas.

We've got a walker!

Myers took his first unaided steps on Wednesday night at church. He can take a few steps on his own and then dives to the floor to crawl. Of course, crawling is so much faster, so it is still his preferred mode of transportation. He can also walk very fast when pushing his push toys around the house. He loves to do laps around the living room, kitchen, and dining room. This is a picture of Myers at Sharon and Ken's house on night when they babysat him the beginning of December.

A visit with Santa and Christmas Tree shopping

We went to the mall to visit Santa a few weeks ago. Myers liked Santa. He liked looking at the sparkly decorations around him too!

Hmmm...what is this tree doing inside? And why have Momma and Daddy put it right next to my buggy?

I like this tree!

Let's take it home and decorate it!

A bunch of photos

We found the camera, so here are a bunch of pictures to catch up for the past few weeks!

Myers likes to eat Mommy's phone.
We hiked to the top of Kennesaw Mountain and Myers fell asleep.

Myers played in the field at Kennesaw Battlefield.

We went to the Richmond Zoo over Thanksgiving weekend. We got to feed the giraffes. They had a bridge that goes over the giraffe's enclosure and the giraffes would stick their heads through the slates. Giraffes have really long tongues!

This is at the Richmond Zoo.

Myers really enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner!
