Our Favorite Kid.

Our baby is 8 months old! Time is going by ridiculously fast and I wish it would just slow down! This is SUCH a fun stage. Landon cracks us up every day. Some of the recent highlights include:

Learning a few tricks: Coughing on command--so hilarious. Rolling under the bed--of course he still manages to keep his head sticking out so we know where he is (how considerate!). Rubbing his dinner all over his hair (most often with avocados)--good for his skin, right? Doing the worm--ok, ok, it's his version of crawling and he's almost there!

Laughing his head off: Landon loves to laugh. Sometimes all you have to do is look at him and he'll laugh and laugh. So fun!

Finding his voice: Our neighbors can attest! This kid screeches!

Being a trooper: This kid has now been on several hikes with us and many, many outings. He is such a good sport, so fun and he loves to be out and about with Mom and Dad.

He is such a joy. I would not trade anything on earth for the chance to be this little guy's mom!

Per the request of some of the grandparents (and great grandparents--that's how you know you're REALLY slacking), here are a few pictures of our favorite kid:


















Just Havin' Fun!

Alas, I've shirked in updating the blog again! What's new? So, a timeline in pictures will have to do.


Landon & Dad

Fun day at Eddie Park. Landon LOVED the swing!






 This picture so awesome. It just is.



3.14 -- We celebrated pie day with the neighbors! Dutch chocolate. Apple Struesel. Pumpkin. Oreo. Yogurt. Cherry. Oh happy day.



Jeff came at the end of March & we explored every inch of LA! Starting with Universal Studios.


I. Love. Lucy.





 Jeff, Landon & I hiked the Hollywood sign. Ok, Jeff & I hiked the Hollywood sign. Landon was just along for the ride.



Santa Monica Pier as a family! Highlights: Incredible view from the top of the Ferris wheel & super crazy performers 

 Having some fun dyeing Easter Eggs! The one on the bottom right is supposed to be Santa Clause. Could you guess?

Good times. More pics of Landon & life to come!
