Playing with Dad

I love these pictures of Kaiden with his Dad, laughing, making faces, climbing on him. It makes my heart so happy to see my son with his son, to see how loving he is to his family.

Killing Time

After we had our family pictures taken on Saturday, we had to wait to see the proofs, so we walked around the store to kill time. Tito discovered discounted Halloween hats
Kaiden discovered a car attached to a shopping cart

and was entertained for quite some time.

Happy Birthday, Tito

Happy Birthday to the only one I know with two birthdays. Until he was 20 years old , his birthday was celebrated on the 16th. Then came the day he applied for his first passport and his birth certificate listed his birthday as the 15th. He says he can still hear his mom arguing that he was born on the 16th! But in the end, his birthday is officially the 15th because that is what the official document says. I tend to believe his mother.

We actually celebrated yesterday. All of us went and had our picture taken at a studio - something he wanted and then came back to the house for a family dinner. It was a good day.

Happy Birthday, my love.

Studying Tito

When you are only nine months old two months is a long time. Kaiden spent a long time last night studying Tito. By the end of the evening he had warmed up a quite a bit especially after Tito fed him dinner. By this morning in church, he was smiling and letting Tito hold him. Tito is happy.

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary, my sweetie. We have really been through it all - for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health. I love you so much and I am so happy you are home!

I'm Glad

I'm glad that Tito was able to be in California the three weeks before his father died.

I'm glad that he was able to stay for 2 1/2 weeks after the funeral and help his mother with all the details.

But mostly I'm glad that he is now home after being gone for almost 2 months!

Nine Months

Nine monhs old and in motion - this is how we see him most of the time anymore - on the go!
