A Few New Pictures

Here are some new pictures of Christian.  We got a few when Chris' mom was here visiting, although I think we were having too much fun to get many :)  I'll look through them soon and try to get them posted. 

We went downtown and rode the trolley, went to Jekyll Island and played in the ocean, and ate lots of wonderful food prepared by Myriam. 

It was too short of a visit, can't wait for you to come back Myriam!

Christian and I floating at Jekyll Island

Doesn't this look like an old time bathing suit?

This child could not have more hair

Running in the square downtown.

Yum, dum dum suckers!

I can't remember what was going on here! Pj's and my hat...

Naked time

How sweet is he? Love his little cheeks

Eating pretzels and wearing dad's hat

He was much more interested in the pretzels than the pool

On the trolley- look at my gigantic 20 week stomach!

These are so out of order :)

Each wearing a work shoe, they were taking a lap around the house! Practicing for future father son races I guess :)

Ha ha! How cute are they? They match too!

Random Sampling

Hello all! It has been a long time and we have been busy busy, but since Miss Gibson has requested I stop making excuses and put some pictures up, here you go :) This is just a random sampling of some from Christmas.  I will get the rest of the pics up soon.  I still owe you all 10 and 11 month pictures too! Can you believe Christian is going to be a year old in a few short weeks! We are having a monkey party for our "Little Monkey" and we can't wait to celebrate.  It has been a great first year.

And now the pictures.  Our little guy sure is photogenic wouldn't you say?

Why we won't be taking baths in the sink anymore...and other fun pictures

Reason #1 for not taking a bath in the sink, ever again:

 Do you see all that water?! It was on the floor, the walls, and me (see below for reason #2)

  

 Guess he thought I needed a bath too...

And another big reason we can't have water everywhere...

 

 

 

 

See that bowl? I use this to rinse his hair. Christian uses it to dump large amounts of water on the floor...apparently the constant splashing just wasn't doing the trick.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Christian insists he had nothing to do with any of the above.  

And on to the fun pictures,

 

Christian & Daddy

Christian loves his Daddy.  Loves, loves him.  Everyone use to say that Christian looked just like his Mommy, but I think the older he gets the more he looks like his Dad.  What do you think?

 Christian is all shocked...what are you doing taking a picture of me?? Angelo is just happy to be on the couch.

When Chris gets home Christian just lights up.  He usually has a meltdown from 5 to 6pm, and Chris gets home right when its over and the sun comes back out (lucky).  Then its all smiles and laughing when he sees his dad.  Chris is really great with him, throws him around and makes crazy faces at him. He lets Christian grab his nose (which he does All. The. Time) even though it hurts, he walks him around until he falls asleep when his teeth are hurting him, and he gets up at night and puts his paci back in when he cries. 

Christian says he pretty much rocks :)

I agree.

 Now he's wondering if it was Dad's idea to take these pictures :)

 How cute are they?

 Best place to sleep in the house :)

So sweet. I think he looks a lot like Chris in this one.  My nose, but the rest, Chris.

Oh and the best thing about dad? I'd vote for his stellar diaper changing abilities...
Although I'm pretty sure he forgot something...

Ooooookllllahoma! Where the wind.....

Oklahoma...you hold so many of my loved ones, I can't help but love you.

This trip was not unlike my last Okie trip, such a good time. 

Emma, Jett and Christian

we had so much fun with them

Christian loves his Auntie Em

Oh how big my little Evan has gotten :(

The Myers Family

Jett flying high

Christians first time in the pool...

...ehh I somehow packed him 2 different suits and none for myself :)

My baby boy before his much needed haircut

And right after...

Meeting Great Grandma Jefferson

Spending some time with cousin Dacia

And Christians favorite person...Papa Gibson

Seriously people anytime Christian saw my dad he would start screeching and laughing, 

dad didn't even have to look at him! So funny. 

Here they are in their matching hats...

Look at that smile.

And because Mimi managed to avoid being in any pictures....

I had to hunt down an old one. Christian had tons of fun with Mimi...

he really enjoyed meeting all her coworkers and pulling her hair :)
