Gus is 1.

Happy Birthday Tiny G. Gus turned one on May 29th. We had a big party. You can read about it here. I know you want to.

I thought I would do a year of pictures. Just one for each month. Nothing fancy, just real life photos. With a little commentary thrown in.

There's something about his eyes....Do you see it? It's like you can see right into the depths of his soul.

newborn - he had gas. The only reason for his smile. And look at all that hair!



one month - still hair. He fell over the second I snapped this shot.

PS - the chair in the background is our favorite garage sale find - EVER - fifty bucks for a leather recliner. I bought it the weekend we moved into our very first house. I was supposed to be painting, but got sidetracked...

Chubby cheeks on that one!



two months



three months



four months - Seriously. Those eyes. I'm dying. They match that denim and the hat and sweater perfectly!



five months - Gramps was visiting. See that big scratch? Not my fault. One of the dogs took a flying leap over Tiny G's head, and didn't quite make it. He wailed.



six months - I mean really. Torturing myself with baby cuteness.



seven months



eight months - He got tubes put in this day. He rocked. We even went shopping later.



nine months - DYYYINNGGG....Don't you just want to take a bite out of his cheeks?



ten months - My fav. Look at those eyes! I didn't edit this photo at all. Can you believe it?! He's killin' me. And of course he's eating bacon. He's definitely a member of this family. They all love their meat.


eleven months - Hey mom?! I need a haircut!



twelve months. OMG. Oh.Em.Gee. Pudgy fingers, pudgy toes...you'd think he was actually on the growth chart....nope. Tiny G.



He's a dream. Love him to death and couldn't imagine our family without him. Looking at these pictures makes me want another one. Better not tell hubby.

  8. I truly believe values are instilled in our children by the time they are 4 or 5. Keep up the good work! Love and cherish and mold them. Our girls need great guys.
