Reid -

We have no idea what our world would be without you!  Pierce worries about you when you are not around, we worry when you get more quiet than usual, because I think you can be a tad bit sneaky! Like I said, above, you are our quiet observer! You are so fun to get to laugh!  You laugh easily!  You take your time!  We are so thankful for you and what you bring to our family!  We are not complete with out you!  

We love you so much and as Daddy said tonight .... Here's to many more my sweet!   

Love, 

Momma, Daddy & Pierce

*************

Tonight, even though Reid kind of has a snotty nose and a rash all over, we quietly celebrated with just the 4 of us!  Pierce of course wanted to help you open presents!  You only wanted to eat the paper until you got to your Sesame Tune Up Garage and you were really interested in that!  Pierce was excited to give you your Dusty Crophopper from Planes that he picked out for you!  And still you wanted to eat more paper and tissue paper!  but we had fun and we hope you did too!

Feel better soon sweet love!

(Thankfully we go to the doc tomorrow for his 1 year check up!) 

 Getting into ripping so that he could try to EAT IT!

His own garage!  He was excited!  ;)

Just a sweet face to watch!  :)

Reid's Early Birthday Bash!

Even with all the fussiness/sickness it was such a fun and relaxing celebration for Reid!  We did it a week early because several of the family had Monday off for Labor Day and it gave time to recoop after the partying!  :)  

Pierce was WAY sicky poo and could barely eat!  Reid had a runny nose!  We got to visit bunches with family!  All in all everyone was in a pretty good mood!  

We missed a few peeps, but understood traveling would have been hard with a 2 month old! :)

Thank you everyone for attending and enjoying good food and a relaxing time!
We love you so much!

 Getting to ride together!

Getting balloons ready! 

 I didn't want to do R's 1 year picture early because A LOT can happen in a week!  :)  so, 9/9, I'll take a picture and add it to his poster board!

 :) 

Over the shoulder pose!

 Really reading his card!

"Ooo!"

 

"I want to eat the paper!"

"I'll sit in the bag!" 

"and I'll eat MORE paper!" 

"I'll sit in another bag!" 

Comparing toys! 

"I'll sit in a box!" 

"I'll laugh in a box!" 

 "I'll get mad because I can't get the tool off the wagon!" 

"I'll eat with Uncle John!" 

Isn't this adorable!?  Mr. Jerry Joyner from Paris!  AMAZING!

 He wore the hat for one split second!

 Not sure about it...

 I ate much more than my brother did at his 1st birthday! :)

 Grandmom did A LOT of puzzles with Pierce!

Dancing at the frig to end the weekend!  :)
