12 Month Well Baby

We took Crocker to the doctor this past week for his 12 month old check up.

He weighs 22 lbs (37th percentile).
He is 29 inches long (25th percentile).

He is doing good except for having bad allergies. He is on Singulair for a month to see how it works.


While we were at the doctor, he had a little snack.




Then, he played in my purse and looked for my cell phone.




Then, it was time for his shots. He is giggling here because he thought they were playing with him. In about 2 seconds, he realized that was not the case. It was not pretty.



He is doing great and goes back at 18 months!

Fall Festival

We went to a Fall Festival on Crocker's birthday.


Sheldon and the birthday boy!



Mommy and the birthday boy!




They had a firetruck and Max Man was so EXCITED to sit in the truck!
They let him sit in the front and honk the horn.


Then, he sat in the back.



He played games and got little treats.





Our family.

Happy (Early) Birthday Max!

We celebrated Max's birthday on Sunday.
We will not all be together on the 10th, so we decided to celebrate a little early.

He requested a hot dog, grapes, cheese crackers, and yogurt for lunch.


He was a little unsure of the candles, but blew them out!


He enjoyed his cupcake by licking all the frosting off and leaving the cake.



He was so excited to open his presents.



One of his gifts was a Honey Bee Tree. We put it together and played a game before nap time.



Max had a fun birthday party and we love him so much.

Happy Birthday Crocker!!!

Crocker woke up so excited and happy that it was his birthday!



He got to eat birthday waffles as his breakfast.


We went to the fall festival at a local school in the morning (it will be a separate post) and then came home for the boys to take a nap.

When they woke up, it was party time.

Crocker opened his presents.




Then, he modeled his cute birthday shirt.



We had friends over to celebrate and had cupcakes.




Crocker really liked his cupcake. It took him a minute to get into it, but then he was all over that cupcake!












All the kids played for awhile after the cupcakes.
He especially loves Riley, who played with him and read to him.



Sheldon got a little wild and crazy at the party!


We had such a good day with our little boy and are so glad that he is a part of our family!

Birthday Eve

We went to eat dinner at the "peanut place" otherwise known as Logan's.
Max loved it as usual. The peanuts are still a hit and he had a good time playing.

Crocker was happy like always and was excited to eat a hamburger!

We had some other errands to run and then we headed home.

One Year Ago

One year ago, Sheldon and I were in a hospital in Casper, WY.
We were excited, nervous, and ready to meet our new son. (I was secretly hoping that they were wrong and would deliver a girl. I am so glad that it was a boy!)

At 8:02am, Crocker joined our family.
Sheldon was so happy and protective. I was thrilled to see my husband get to experience the birth and having a newborn.




The past year has been so fun.
Crocker is a precious, tender-hearted little boy.
He is so laid back and calm.
He is ALWAYS happy and has a smile on his face.

We are so thankful to have him as our son and cannot wait for the years to come.
