Yesterday (Jan 9th) was Xander’s First Birthday!  I can’t believe he is one already!  We had a quiet party for him with just a few friends at the house last night.  Here
are a few of the highlights!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year!  Ours was fantastic!  Travis cooked a GREAT meal, the baby had his first Thanksgiving meal, and I just loved being able to spend time with my family!

We’re looking forward to spending Christmas at home (in Maryland) in just a few short weeks!  Only two weeks until we’re there.....

Hi guys! Happy Thanksgiving. We’re looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks. : ) Love you all.

Just put Xander down for a nap.  I am in the living room, and I have the video monitor on.  I just looked over to see if he was asleep... and well...

No. He’s not.

Anyone who knows my sister, will know where Xander got this very special talent from.  Ah, food in the hair...

Xander is really getting into "big people" food.  Here is he enjoying some of Mommy’s pizza:

and Ice Cream:

and finally, Xander finishes the night by brushing his teeth like a good boy!

Megan took this picture of Xander and I, this past weekend in San Francisco. It is officially my FAVORITE picture right now, and so I wanted to share it with people here!
