Photos from apple picking!

Jenn's One Year Anniversary

We were so lucky to have found the perfect addition to our family in Jenn. In the past year she has helped Simon grow from a sleepy infant into a sweet, smart little boy. We are grateful every time we leave to know that Jenn is capable of handling anything that a small boy can throw at her (literally and figuratively) and always manages to be patient, loving, and have fun at the same time.

Thank you, Jenn. We love you.

Jenn made this pillow for Simon.

He loves it.

And he loves her.

Celebrating one year with Simon!!

Today is my one year with the amazing Basque family and Simon and I decided to celebrate by going to breakfast at Wishbone, refusing a nap (too excited!!), and a trip to the museum of science and industry. Here are some photos from the day and the baby Simon photo is the first photo I ever took of him :) I love this family and this year has been such a wonderful year!! Thank you for all 365 days Emily, Alan, Simon, and family!!!!! Love Jenn (aka baby nanny)

Animal Sounds

Simon can make a ton of animal sounds and here are the ones associated with the blocks. I love that he moos for the Moose. And sometimes he holds his nose for the skunk and says PU!

Story Time

Some Father-Son reading time.... I love that Simon yawns and stretches and touches his toes. 

One More

Simon learned to say One More...

What drawer?

What, mom? What drawer am I not supposed to open?
