More of Daddy's favs

Some favorites from 2009

NICO!

Nico took us for a drive to the park where Aqua got some great pics! Talking, gibbering, talking back, arguing... he still thinks he can win... the cutest baby on the planet! Good luck, rest of the world, topping this adorable little kid.

I just can't help my self... As Sweet Aunt Meg says, "he's just so cute! I want to rub him all over my face."

Sorry the video's are sideways, but we will get better or maybe we won't...

SLIDE outside the market in Austin Texas.

He's not scared... which should probably scare us a bit, but it doesn't. We love it!

NICO Rocks!

Brigantine Baby Bub

Our first day at the beach was a success, Nico loves the ocean, sand, and makes friends easily on the beach. We have had beautiful weather and wonderfull days, hate to leave....

Nico's last ISR lesson

We are so happy to be done with Nico's lessons, it was alot of work but totally worth it. Our little boy can flip over, float and swim now, what a relief for us. He was not happy to be in the water with Anatasia again but was thrilled with his ride around the course.

Nico's one year pictures

Happy 4th of July! Nico is looking especially dope in his swim diaper, a special gift from the Hamdens. He had a blast hangin with Nolan and swimming like a big boy. Swimming lessons are working, he floats, puts his face in the water, holds his breath when he goes under and has no fear whatsoever. So all the torture I go through during swim class is paying off! We can't wait to get him to the Jersey shore and put his toes in the ocean, he is definitely a water baby.

You want me to do what with who now?

Nico starts swimming lessons tomorrow... We went to observe last night and the kids were all screaming bloody murder. It was awful. I bet our little Nico takes to the water like a half amphibious little mutant creature desperate for the calming effects of H2O. The lessons are not so much swimming lessons for Nico, but patience lessons for Amber and I as we stand aside and watch some lady torture our poor screaming child until he floats. ...Fun for the whole family!

The cutest kid in the world...is mobile.

Yes, it is true. The boy is a full fledged toddler. Walking around...cursing us for not letting him have his way every second of every day. He's too cute to have such a bad attitude. I know a walking announcement would generally have a picture of the kid walking, but I'm just teasing you with the news. You'll have to wait and these adorable pictures will have to suffice. Cheers.
