One year ago....

James is growing so fast!!! These pictures were from exactly one year ago today. I can't believe how much he has changed!

The Park

School started back today so we had the Bethel park to ourselves. James had a great time but wore himself out!~

Egg Allergy

We just got back from the allergist and it was confirmed that James is allergic to egg whites. Many kids outgrow this allergy and 90% do by age 5. The doctor recommended that James start an "egg free" diet for a year and then he will be tested again before his second Birthday. This really stinks because he has just started eating the Gerber Graduates Pasta meals and they all contain eggs. What is he going to eat now?????

Blue Eyes

Bath Time!!!!

I got a new camera!!!! Can't you tell the difference in the quality of the pictures?? I LOVE IT!

Cheese Puffs

I've had such a hard time getting James to eat table foods, but I think he is finally getting there. Last night he ate a fish stick, 3 green beans, and some pieces of cheese. Last week he wouldn't touch cheese. He is also eating nabs, sugar wafers, and a variety of other crackers. Any suggestions on other things I should try??? He sure loves his cheese puffs!!!!

Climbing on the Couch

Today James learned how to climb up on the couch. The only problem is he can't get off...and our coffee table is right in front of the couch. He wasn't too happy with me when I wouldn't let him play on the couch.

A Day on the Farm

James helped Pop Pop check tobacco barns....

He couldn't believe how BIG Daddy's new combine was!!!

Checking out the inside....

Catching a ride....

Quality Time with Daddy

Gray and I have had a stomach bug. It only lasts 24-48 hours but please pray that you don't get it! We survived but it was hard, especially with an active 13 month old running around the house. James really enjoyed Gray being home for 2 whole days!

Uncle Kevin

James loves to play with Uncle Kevin!!!!!!

Too many girls...

All of my friends have girls. I'm sure James won't be complaining in about 15 years. We went to Smithfield on Wednesday afternoon and got to spend time with Maddy and Addie. I don't have many pictures of Addie and James because they are both very mobile. James loved playing with Maddy's toys and her puppy Dixon.

James' First Haircut

James got his first haircut on Tuesday. I didn't want to cut it but it really was time. I didn't get many pictures because he wouldn't sit still and I had to hold him. I think it looks really cute!!!
