Back Bend!
James has learned to turn off the lights.
He loves to do this so much that he will
grab the door frame if we didn't let him turn one on or off.
Lazy eater
Learned to climb onto the mantel and tried to climb into the fireplace.
We had to cover up the fireplace

Learning how to do a back bend
Before the cold front comes, we enjoyed the Water Fountain.
This was James's first time to enjoy the Water Fountain while walking.
We went to support the Alabama Swim and Dive Team!
Ayda and James were ready to jump in.
They were excited!!
They might have cried when we left to go eat dinner.
Loves!!!
Brushing their teeth together
They do like each other
Packing for Disney, again. This happens more then you think!
Messy eater
Reading about Princess Ayda
Starting the morning out by practicing using a spoon.
He loves the swing!
He walks straight to the swing when he gets outside.
This little boy!
We might have caught him standing in this chair...
We had more smores!!!
We understand that boys are dirty,
but we never realized how much dirt loves a boy.
A boy and his bear!
Momma and Daddy went on a date
We love the beach!
Lake Shell hunts!
Cleaning shells
Ayda is enjoying a cupcake while watching James.

Nap Time?
Weight: 24 pounds 8 ounces
Length: 30.75 inches
Head: 18.5 inches
He grew 11.75 inches and gained 17 pounds and 8 ounces in one year!
He is a healthy baby (toddler).
James has been walking for a month now
Loves:
books, especially I Love You Through and Through and Peek-a-Boo Baby
bringing you books to read to him
throwing things in the toilet or just playing in the water
throwing balls
playing with his toy cars
swing
dirt
bath time
climb stairs
carrots, yogurt, fish stick, spaghetti, pb&j, any kind of beans, chocolate, and milk
give big wet kiss
hugs
waving with his floppy wave
showing you where his hair is when you ask
We had Dr. McGiffert look at his feet, which blister up when he wears shoes (which isn't much). We are now waiting to get a Pediatric Dermatologist appointment to check if it is a type of epidermolysis bullosa. James also became tan over labor day weekend and we noticed a white mark on his arm. It probably is a birth mark but the Dermatologist will look at the white mark, too. James loves to say Momma and cares less about any other words. The doctor loves how social he is but is concerned that he doesn't use other words. Hopefully, in six weeks he will improve. If not, We will get to visit our favorite doctor again figure out our next step.
While fixing Ayda's lunch,
I caught James and Ayda loving on each other.
Sleeping while we shop for Daddy's traveling gear!
James loves to dress up.
He will bring us different things to help him put on.
Walking to school
James loves to talk on the phone!
We finally got her ballet slippers.
She immediately wanted to stand on her toes like the big girls!
Learning how to do a back bend
Trying to leap over a large object. It's very tough!
Sleeping with her ballet slippers on,

This girl gets excited about seeing the Moon!
This was James's first time to enjoy the Water Fountain while walking.
Nap Time?
We went to support the Alabama Swim and Dive Team!
They were excited!!
James somehow takes his shoes and socks off everywhere we go.
We are lucky we haven't lost any so far.
Making Smores!
Five days before he turns one and already driving the car!
He walks straight to the swing when he gets outside.
To understand James's personality:
He hates that he can't stand under the table.
Here he is crying because he hit is head when he stood up.
This happens multiple times a week.
but we never realized how much dirt loves a boy.
These shoes use to be white and grey
Brushing our teeth together!
First morning at the Lake!
Loving the beach!
Building tunnels
Then Ayda helped make James's Birthday cake!
There is a shark in the birthday cake!
We can't wait for brother to find it!
While the cake cools, we all, all four, took a trip on the waverunner.
James's first waverunner ride the day before he turns one.
We love the beach!
Holley graciously took photos of us yet again.
Thank you for the memories!
The feast before the party!
James's First Birthday Cake!
Yum!
Very unsure about digging into the cake.
One last beach party before we leave.
One last boat ride and ice cream before we go!

James might have dug in the dirty hamper and brought me this dress.
He wore the dress with pride!

Skating!!
I caught James and Ayda loving on each other.
9/27/14: Ayda came running inside and insisted me to come look at something. When we got out side, she said "It's pink! God gave me pink!" The sunset tonight was a bright pink! Then she tried to find the moon, which has been missing for a while. The pink clouds parted and there was a bright sliver of the moon "God's Thumbnail!" She then asked to go to the moon!
9/30: James can show you his tongue and loves to give high fives when you ask him.
Ayda loves to name things E.L.P. "What shall we name our monster?" "E.L.P." "What is your cat's name?" "E.L.P."
After nap fun!
