Precious Moments

I love watching the boys play together. They are growing so fast and I just want them to stay this age forever. I can't wait to watch them grow up together, but for now I want to capture every moment I can, so it's simple evening play times like tonight that I want to remember!!

.

Having a little monster truck fun before dinner...it's all about doing what big brother is doing these days!

Then their nightly baths together...and boy do they have fun!

.

Such a ham!

(sidenote: Look at how tan Lane is getting already, his arms and neck, just from being outside at school...crazy!)

Lane certainly keeps Levi entertained!

Sweet boys!

Love these two!

Levi Austin: 12 Months

(Finally...his official twelve month post!)
.
Sweet Levi,

A whole year has gone by so fast! As much as I tried to slow down this year, I couldn't and you grew so fast!

.

I remember holding you for the very first time...

And cuddling with you in the hospital and soaking up every precious minute with you.

From the beginning you have looked so much like your big brother! But now I think you are growing into your own little features! This year we have settled into a family of four and you have been the perfect addition!

Here's a little glimpse back at you over the year!

At 12 months you are:

*22 lbs.

*walking full time

*drinking from a sippy cup

*can sign the word "more"

*loves to go byebye

*loves to be outside

*can wave byebye

*loves to eat

*off formula and on milk

*sleeping all night

*developing quite the temper

*can play ball
*have six teeth

You are so silly! And I'm not sure why blogger uploaded these sideways but I still wanted to have them on here!

Mommy and Daddy love you more than anything! We have loved watching you grow this year and can only imagine all that you will do your second!!

Happy Birthday Again sweet boy!!

Another Season in the Books

Yesterday we had our last soccer game of the season against the Rockets. The boys did great and Lane had a good game!
Pre game water and pep talk!

Game Time!

Lane on the move to score his first goal!

and again!

.

It was perfect weather for the game, and after Paul passed out their trophys!

These boys are precious! We had a great little season! Not sure if this team will be back together in the Fall or not...Paul says he's done coaching...he wants to "sit and watch" he says!! So we will see!!

Good Job Strikers!!

Yea!

We got him undressed and then he was ready to go...he picked around at it a little bit at first...

Stealing glances at me to see if I was going to stop him or not!

Giving it a taste

Mmmm....

He loved to suck the icing off his fingers

Sweet sweet smile!

This was him at the end...not too messy and all smiles!!

We had a great afternoon and Levi was worn out!! Thanks to all our family for coming to celebrate with us!!
