Hawaii!

Aloha from Hawaii! Niall had a business trip and we took advantage to take the family. A few days in Honolulu at Waikiki beach was beautiful!

I'm walking!

12 months and 1 week....finally! He's still working on perfecting the art and has suffered some minor scrapes and bumps but overall Niall is very pleased with himself.

Nana's turn!

Turning one brings all the family out to the west coast. We took Nana to the safari park and had lots of beach and pool time!

Mimi comes to visit

Mimi made another visit for Niall's first birthday. The weather has been Beachy.

I'm One!

We had a gathering at the house writhing friends to celebrate! Niall really got into his cake, plenty on the walls and in his hair!

September

11 months

We're creeping up on his first birthday, unbelievable. August has been full of trips to the beach, bike rides and the pool. Niall loves jumping off the side of the pool and sticking his head under, which gives me mild heart attacks but I'm happy he's such a water bug. He's beginning to walk if supported and pushes everything around the house including the stroller and laundry basket. Favorite words are "ba-ba" and "da-da".

10 months!

Time is flying by! Niall is crawling like an Olympian and waving hello to everyone he sees. He is loving peanut butter sandwiches and string cheese while struggling with fruits and vegetables. Can you blame the kid? We've been heading to the beach in the evenings to let him crawl and play in the sand while dad surfs!
