Daeson
and Judah

Officially Announcing...

Baby Culin #2. Due November 21, 2010. I am feeling very sick, but excited about the first trimester being over soon. We are already anticipating Judah having a hard time not getting all of our attention, but I am so excited for the new addition God is forming for us to love.

wow responsibility is hitting me all over again.

I will keep you updated on any new news :)

Fun with Photo Booth

Judah and Daddy often have fun taking pictures while they play on the computer. Here are a few from last night. Auntie K got in on a bit of the action.

Judah is a little jealous that Auntie Ev and Uncle Jeff are going to Paris (and so am I), so he wanted to wish them a good time- with out us :/
A final fun face....

color wonder

these things are brilliant! They only color on the special paper. This I know from experience, because had they been real markers there would be fun all over my walls and floors and furniture. He is getting so big. He loves to put the caps on and take them off, over and, over, and over.

This is the new "CHEESE" face

when I get out the camera and instruct Jude to, "say cheese," this is the face that we get. Not sure why he wants to close his eyes. :)

HI Heather

I feel like I needed to update this blog because there are a few peeps that check it. Here is Judah's most recent photo session .

Here is the happy face...

This is the "I am tired of saying CHEESE, mom" look...
and this is the abrupt end to the photo session.
More to come. Stay tuned :)

Another Milestone

Judah's First Haircut.

and this is how it went down.....

this is the before with Auntie EV

Here is the snip snip
This is my GQ pose
And the final result.....
It might be a little short, but it is only hair and it will always grow back. :)

Boys time

Bonding over guitar hero.

Looks fun ha!

Judah's first Birthday Party

We had a very merry christmas

Jude and Daddy got some fun gifts...Grumpy really liked this toy...
Nana loved her gift...
Jude Just liked the attention :)

Merry Christmas!!!

Just a smile from Judah to wish all our friends a Merry Christmas.

we are banking on his shirt message coming true with a little help from Auntie :)

This is just a little glimpse into my fun. Trying to wrap presents and I see this. He pushed this box over to the table because he wanted to get into the presents that I was wrapping. He actually fell off of it the first time, cried and was comforted. Then moved the box again and this is Jude caught in the act (the crying is still from the first time he fell off).
Happy Holidays!

my baby is 1

My sister took more pictures of Jude's birthday, so I will post more pictures in a few days when I get the rest of them, but here is a glimpse

We decorated with a lot of balloons.
The Birthday boy (complete with identifying outfit) loved the balloons!

. I can't believe it has been a year already. Happy Birthday baby.

Dinner with the Konings

It might seem mean, but there were no babies harmed in the eating of this wonderful dinner.

He is a very active boy so we had to make sure he was safe. 2 scarfs + 1 beach towel= instant high chair.
Thanks Evalie and Jeff, we had fun.

Anyone for 3-D?

he really did like them.

We are all ready for christmas

Our tree is decorated from the middle up :)

because someone likes to pull off the ornaments and eat the lights.
I know this one is blurry, but it is a great illustration of how Jude acts when I bring out the camera. Our camera is a "tough" camera, so you can drop it and submerge it in water. So we have let him chew on it and play with it, so whenever I bring out the camera he just gets this big grin and runs toward me.... 'give me my toy mom.'

I know it has been a while....

my little blog, but I will try to update you, my faithful followers.

First we said goodbye to Georgia....

and we moved in with my parents for 2 weeks. Jude had lots of fun at the park,
he was not to sure about the grass, but he loved to eat the bark. :/
Babies first Thanksgiving was a huge success.....
Stay tuned for more pictures.

Leave it to the professionals

I thought I could try and see if we could save a little money and yet still record our son's growth...As you can see it didn't quite come out the same...I guess I need to take a few classes.
