Almost a Year Old!

Can you believe it's almost been a year since Billy was born? We sure can't! That old cliche that it goes by so fast is SO true. Billy will turn one year old on the 26th. He's not walking yet, but he's cruising on all the furniture and says "da-da-da-da" and "ba-ba-ba-ba." Sometimes he says "maaaa" but usually only when he's upset. He's just added "naaaa-naa" to his verbal repertoire. He can wave "hi," raise his arms up over his head to say "yay" and can clap his hands.

Sorry it's been so long between updates. The winter has been long and it seems that Billy and Mommy have been sick a lot in the last 2 months. In fact, we have colds now! Daddy so far, has dodged the latest virus-bullet. So below I've dumped a smattering of photos taken from our San Fransisco trip at the end of February, to a couple snapshots from St. Paddy's. We'll hopefully have lots of pictures from Billy's birthday - we plan to go to the local zoo to celebrate!

San Fransisco:
First is the view from our hotel window facing Coit Tower in the distance. Then two pictures of Billy and Daddy in the San Fransisco Airport. The last is the weary travelers on the plane home (remember, you can click any of the photos to see them larger!)...










Here's Billy eating like a big boy in a high chair at the local Applebees restaurant. He really enjoys going out to eat with Mommy and Daddy!














Billy's first bath in the "Big Boy" bathtub! He totally loved it. He especially loved crawling around after the water toys that Grandma Dar and Grandpa Bill bought him for Christmas...










On March 2, Billy was Baptized and his Daddy was received into the Episcopalian Church in the same Ceremony. How cute Billy and Daddy were in their matching church outfits! We didn't catch a photo of the actual moment (since we were busy in the ceremony), but here are some before and after shots. Billy fell asleep for the first part of the ceremony, and woke up right as Mother Susan was dripping water on his head! He was only slightly grumpy, though.













Lastly, here's a couple of snapshots from St. Patrick's Day of Billy in his Shamrock onesie that Mommy designed. He didn't want to sit still for the camera.
















Hope everyone is well! Next update, Billy will be a year old!

Love,

Karyn, Jeremy & Billy
