Happy 1st Bithday, Fisher!

Happy 1st Birthday to my Fisher-man! You LOVE wagon rides, so we thought we'd celebrated with a Little Red Wagon-themed party. But there wasn't lots of "wagon-themed" stuff available, so Mommy had to get creative. Also, you were a little sick with bronchitis on the day of your party, so we had to downsize it a bit; but you still seemed to have lots of fun!

Candy For Everyone!

Our only family pic of the day. Your brother is upset that I took his candy bag for the picture. :(

After a 4+ hour nap, you woke up to open presents! :)

Supper time! Here you are playing peek-a-boo...except you cover your ears instead of your eyes! :)

We love you so much Little Bug. You are such a happy baby and bring so much joy to our family. At one year you can say "Da Da", "Ma Ma", "Eat", "Bye Bye", "Dat" (as in "What's that?" or "Who Dat?") hehe and you've attempted to say "Trace" a few times. You love to play peek-a-boo, patty cake (you love to roll 'em up!), give hugs when we say "Love, Love", and you make sure everyone knows how old you are; when we say "One" you point you finger way up high! You also love to dance, you crawl super-fast, especially when you're trying to get into something like Phoebe's bowl or Trace's lunch, and you put things in your mouth faster than lightning. You love to laugh, especially at your brother's silly antics. Oh, and you're still famous for your hair, although you've had 4 hair cuts in the past 6 months and you always stick your tounge out, but you've gotten much better about this since your 2 teeth have come in. You are perfect in every way and we can't imagine or remember much of life without you. Happy Birthday, Fisher. Looking forward to MANY more (but try to slow it down a bit, please?) ;)

We love you. -Momma, Daddy, & Trace

First Game at The Box

Last night, I took Trace to his first LSU baseball game at the new Alex Box Stadium. LSU beat Southeastern 7-3, and we had a great time.

Here are some of the highlights of the night:

Eating all the popcorn he wanted:


Watching the game with his friend Cole:

Wait, there's a park here? This definitely put going to an LSU baseball game at the top of his LSU sports list:
Oh yeah, there was a baseball game going on too:
