Happy Birthday Russell



Happy Birthday Russell!!

I meant to post something on the day of Russell's Birthday, but somehow the day got away from me and then so did the rest of the week! I cannot believe my little boy is already 1. We celebrated his birthday while we were in Utah (more on that trip to come). It was fun having family there with us to help celebrate. Russell was a little afraid of the cake to begin with but by the end he had the hang of it and was a big mess! I love the above picture with his crooked little smile. It makes me all happy and giddy inside whenever I look at it. What Russell is currently doing:

walking around by himself. He still falls a lot but he is doing really well!
says na na (meaning no no) which he learned from his loving older sister :)
Kevin and I swear he has said thank you on more than one occasion (he's pretty smart)
Loves to carry around long stick like objects...the wooden spoon is currently his favorite toy
He gets very attached to things as well and lets you know when he disapproves of you taking it away from him.
Continues being the sweetest and happiest boy around!

Happy Birthday Russell...we love you!
