DAM's last carefree morning

He sleeps until 9:45 a.m. Tomorrow, he turns the responsible age of 1. Here's his wake up face.

Traffic jam in Vicksburg

David's push cart (on loan from Manu) doesn't turn, causing problems
once an obstruction is encountered, especially when that obstruction
is the bathroom door...with MB inside!

Wait for my birthday?

What? You're not kidding? No fair! I may have to call Uncle Jim to
help plead my case for early unwrapping.

Dad's home

but out of practice. I wiggled right out of my diaper!

Downtown Xmas shopping

It's girl!

M.A. and Jimmy's afternoon project was hanging the (made in China)
baby announcement.

Yep, they bathe me occasionally

Like my shirt? My uncles (Daniel and Patrick) used to wear it when they were little!

Larkin Elizabeth Bendele

Born Dec. 5th, 2010. Aunt Jessica and Uncle Marvin are thrilled, but Cousin David senses some competition.

Happy birthday, Jimmy!

I'm dancing to your birthday song.

Practice makes perfect

So look out world (and Mom and Dad!).

Happy Birthday, Manu!

Today we went to my friend Manu's 2nd birthday party. Here he is
explaining to me what it's like to be two whole years old. Also, he's
got some great toys that he even let me play with!

A visit from Granddaddy

Who's on his way to Texas for some reason...

Recovering w/ cookies

Stomach bugs are no match for warm peanut butter cookies.
