Canon is still such a joy! He seriously laughs, smiles, and claps all day long. He is really into playing with his toys and likes to climb up on everything. He likes to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse in the mornings for a few minutes. He loves to riding in his stroller while I take walks, I think he is going to have a love for the outdoors. He actually listens to us when we tell him "no touch" and he obeys most of the time (we are very proud of him)!
I can't believe he is almost one! What a wonderful year it has been!!


Love,

Our Star

I took Canon to get his pictures taken at the Picture People in the Mall about a month ago. I am not a huge fan of studio like pictures (some of them are very cheesy), but I think I will be glad I did them in years to come. For his 1 year photos I hope to find someone that can take them outside, so the pictures can be more artsy and candid. (April, wish you were here to take his pictures)! Anyway, I was pleased with some of the photos and just think Canon is adorable (yes we are bias, but who doesn't think their kid is the cutest thing on the planet?). Come to find out the studio in the mall put up some of his pictures in the studio! He is a star! Shouldn't we get paid for that? :)
Enjoy the pictures!



Love,
Rachel
