13 Months!

Little Bodie Booth is 13 months old! And boy is he a firecracker! He's found his naughty "voice" which he uses anytime we stop him from creating complete havoc in the house!! Even though he is in his "not so easy stage", we are amazed everyday at how much fun he brings to our home.
He's a little explorer and will open every single cabinet in the kitchen and unfortunately, the toilet seat to splash in the water. He definitely keeps us on our (old) toes! At his 12 1/2 month check up, he weighed in at a whopping 16 pounds....(the Dr. once again re-weighed him because she didn't want to think that he only weighed 16 pounds) however, the scale didn't lie!! She's not too worried yet, even though he is way off the chart for his weight, he does gain between his visits so that makes her feel better about his size. He was 29 inches long (30%) and his head was 42 1/2 inches (3%). He's a wee little fellow as we like to call him...ha ha! But, his size does nothing to stop him from doing anything he wants to do around here! He started taking his first steps a few weeks before his first birthday and in the last week or so, he has started using his little legs as his preferred mode of getting from point A to point B! He is such a hoot to watch...he looks like a character from the Living Dead movies, but it's just so awesome to watch him learn new things and watch as his personality continues to grow. He still wears a size 2 diaper and his 12 month old clothes still look huge on him, but he's reaching his milestones and that is all a parent can wish for....he's a healthy, happy little boy.

Little Bodie bug all sprawled out!

Lookin Cool there Bodie....if only he would keep them on!

Yeah, baby!

He still prefers to eat his shoes!

Trying to get out of his "cage"! Even though all of his best toys are in the play yard....he wants nothing to do with it!

Sunday pics.....two cute boys!

More Sunday pics....Joel trying out his "cool" look...I think it's working...ha ha!

Here is his Zombie stance while walking.....he's got such a face!

Enjoying his first In and Out burger....He LOVED it!! Maybe we will feed him one every day to fatten him up!!

Now, that is some good eats!!

He stores his food like a chipmunk!!

We love you little man.....

Long overdue update....The Beach!

So, yes....I've been a very bad keeper of the blog lately...I have no excuses, but for your viewing delight here are some photos of the fam!! My sister came to visit a few weeks ago and we decided to take her to Laguna...the beach is beautiful there and we managed to find a perfect spot with not that many people. Kyle and Saige were the first ones to brave the super cold water...it was pretty slippery, but they managed to stay upright!

Saige getting a little help from Kyle...I thought this was a sweet picture.

The water was pretty clear, but you can't tell from this picture!

I don't know how they stayed in for as long as they did....wow, that water is FUUUREEEZZZING!

Little Bodie bug.....his Auntie Leah made him this hat....isn't it so cute?

Bodie wasn't sure if he liked the sand...but after a while, he decided he did!!

His little swim trunks were a gift for his shower....and they still fit...ha ha! Well, they were a little snug, but they were newborn for goodness sake! He's such a little peanut!

I super love this picture! Bodie sure does love his daddy and daddy sure does love his Bodie!

Getting his crawl on....he's loving the sand at this point!

I think he spies something he wants....Ewwwe! It was a baby crab!

Love this little pic too!! We love it when he lays his head on our shoulders!

Ahhh, sweet daddy pic!

My beautiful sister B! I miss her so much, we had so much fun during her visit.

Bodie sure took to his Aunt B....he let her hold him forever....which isn't normal!! He's usually too busy for such nonsense!

Good times!

Bodie managed to be the only one who didn't get a burn!! But, it was a great day and we are looking foward to checking out the other beaches!

So, my plan is to post some more pictures soon.....I'll stop being so lazy!!

Bodie's First Birthday......

Bodie is now 1....WOW, this year has just flown by.....I can't stand it! I just love planning parties and I couldn't wait to give Bodie is first Birthday party...it was a blast putting it all together and everything turned out great! I saw a milk and cookies party for a baby shower a year ago and have been thinking about it since! I think it worked perfectly for a little boy's first birthday! We can't say enough how much we love this little guy....he has brought so much joy and happiness into our home. I love seeing him grow and do new things every single day and even though I would love it if time just slowed a little, I don't take any days for granted! His one year appointment is on the 28th and I'll get his stats then, but he's hitting all his milestones and then some and of course we think he is the smartest baby there is! Here are his pictures......

The cookie station.....the red flowers were a last minute addition!

Tim....I love these labels.....you are sooooo good!

I bought two of these tubs for a saaaweeet deal (of course) and I super love them. I totally didn't get a picture of all the little milk bottles that I made to give as favors in the tub of ice...it was cute though!

The cookie favors with left over bags from Jade's wedding!!

I got 20 of these brown and white polka dot balloons...I love how they look!

I love these paper flowers....they just look so dang cute! And I loved how the whole table looked.

It took us forever to figure out where to put this happy birthday banner....it was huge!

Love his cake....we got it at a place called Bodacious Bundts....how cute is that? I took them a picture and they re-created it perfectly!

The drink station....I'm sooooo ticked that I didn't get a picture with the vintage milk bottle...oh well.

We decorated his high chair!

He loved opening his presents!

A sit and spin...whoo-hoo!

Some cool glasses from a cool guest!!

He kept eyeing this super cute little girl....he's already a flirt!

He didn't want to have anything to do with this hat....ha ha!

Attempting to get it on his head!

He's about to have a cow....ha ha...we gave up!

He wasn't sure what to do at first....but as soon as that first handful of cake went in...he had a blast!

Is he the cutest boy ever???

We think so!

The chocolate cake matches his eyes!

A little shot of his party favors...

I thought they turned out great!

1% milk for his 1st Birthday!

Well, that's it for the pics....of course I forgot to take a bunch of shots....but, overall I just loved throwing him this party!
