Catch and Release

HOWDY Mr.- Long time no see.


I find Catch and Release a fitting title since I have quite a bit to catch up on and also the fact the my sister and I have been released from school and sent out into the wild world of work and motherhood, not to mention the fact that Julia has moved to the Mormon Mecca...sad. (Julia you will and already are missed.)

Well...Curtis is 1! And at every attempt to celebrate he has refused to fully participate. As parents we have finally said, "Let [him] eat cake." However, the only response we can get from him is a big frumpy turn of the head and a squirm to get away. After many celebratory outtings we have finally subsided to saying, "Let [Us] eat cake."

Although his first seven teeth haven't shown to be a sweet tooth, he himself is one big bundle of sweet delicious goodness. He loves smiling, waving, tilting his head and giving lip-smacks(which I interpret to be kisses). He is also very obedient, gentle, patient and introspective.

Like this film taken way after his bedtime:
