Growing Up....

my Grami and Trey's Great-Grami made this special growth piece for his Birthday. we just love it, thank you Grami!! The nice thing is that when we have another child, whether boy or girl, we can stitch their name on either the other boy or girl shown and we can chart their growth as well....what a special gift. Thank you Thank you Grami!!!!

Trey's First Birthday "PAWW-TY"(Part6)

THE AFTERPARTY: when you are 4 and 1 the party keeps on going....esp. when "they" are well rested, and its bright and early in the morning. As PopPop would say: "party on garth".......

this is what i saw when i walked into the kitchen sunday morning....i for one certainly can't wait for Hayes and Lily to be old enough to hangout with these two....man those 4 cousins are going to have a grand time together........

sweet little guy posin' on his new airplane that GaGa gave him......def. hammin' it up for the camera....

Trey's First Birthday "PAWW-TY"(Part4)

since i knew ella would be here for the birthday party i wanted fun things for us to do!!! being a teacher i know how important it is to have activities for kiddos! So since its almost Easter we dyed easter eggs...it was a perfect day to be outside!

trey is waayy more interested in carrying things at this age. he pretty much walks around carrying something. case in point: here he is carrying measuring spoons...where did he gets those, not really part of the party....who knows...!!HA

Trey's First Birthday "PAWW-TY"(Part3)

trey thinks his cousin Ella (4years) is very cool...deena, michael, ella and hayes stayed at our house for the weekend and trey and ella had a great time together! Thanks Ella, for being a great big cousin to Trey!

I still can't believe this is "MY SON" with that light hair....who would have thought????

trey is a "monkey" and well, if you don't snap fast he's gone!

Michael and Hayes just hangin''

i loved this picture, thats PaPa's hand reaching out to Trey.

YaYa bought Trey this Birthday hat and we were able to snap a few shots of him wearing it...but it didn't stay on long. Here is Trey unable to decide what to play with so he's holding onto everything! The long thing is the bubble blower!!! Trey loves his bubbles!!!!
