Capturing some of his recent favorites

He often sits and pages through a book. Very quickly (of course) but it is still fun to see. As of right now he is prefering to read them by himself. :)There are still times when he lets one of us read to him, which we love!

One of Austin's favorite places to hang out is under the table. It is tall enough that he can still stand under it.

Tracy got Austin a piano-playing snowman for Christmas. He loves to dance to it.

The little drummer/JimBay Boy

Here is a picture of David teaching Austin how to play the Jimbay. Austin loved it! :)

Austin Walking

These aren't exactly his first steps, but we finally caught him on video going a little ways!

Austin's 1 year appt.

Austin had his 1 year appt. on Friday Jan. 4th.

He is 31 1/2 inches tall. (90th percentile) and 21 lbs. 8 oz. (25th percentile). For now he is tall and skinny, although with his little chubby cheeks you would never think it. :)

He is walking more and more everyday and trying to repeat some words we use often. He got his one year pictures taken; I have included some of them below.

He definitely had some funny pictures as well. ^
