Happy to Be Here

We just celebrated Moses' 1st birthday on Christmas. What a year it has been and how lucky we all are to know this little guy!

Here he is last year under the tree. And here he is this year under the tree, in a picture that will no doubt become a Birthday/Christmas tradition.

Here is Mo after devouring his birthday banana bread cupcake. The kid can eat and his first taste of frosting was no different. We had a quiet birthday dinner on Christmas and Ella got to blow out the candles for the 2nd time in a week and Mo got to rub frosting all over his face, like all proud 1-year olds should do.

And there he is...Moses "Happy to Be Here" H.P! Mo literally greets every new moment in life with that smile. Around every corner, he comes with a smile. Into each new place we visit, he comes with a smile. Each new person, animal, or large vehiclethat he meets, he greets them with smiles--and recently with a wave and a big "Hiiiiiiiiiiii!". Moses is more than just a happy baby, I actually think he is showing signs of being just plain nice. I think that when he gets older he's going to be the kind of person that people meet and say to themselves, "Wow, that Moses is so nice and thoughtful. You don't meet people like him too often." Just like his mom.

We're happy you're happy to be here, Moses. We're happy you're here! We love you and Happy Birthday big boy. Keep smiling!
