Oh Boy!

The big One

He usually cries him self to sleep

This time for a different reason

Some of you are thinking about Lady and the tramp, this kitty is not a Siamese

Buddies, Waimea and reilly

There is a gecko on his arm

Getting in to the diapers with sophie

So proud of himself

He stayed up here for a good 20 mins

The world looks better from up here

and under here

everything is a new experience

good bye tower...make way for Waimea

Everyone wants this valentine...but he's mine!

Chillin with Micah

he loves to chew on a tooth brush

and to feed himself

We love this kid so much. He is tons of fun.

Some of his favorite things:

Green beans, pears, eggs, frozen peas, frozen blueberries

Walking around with mommy or daddy's hand

being out side

baths, and water he loves the hose, the sink and the ocean

dancing

anything with wheels (so boy)

harassing his sister, he already knows her buttons and he pushes them often

Climbing up and on to tables, beds, steps etc

taking things out of drawers or containers

putting things back into containers

His green blanket...he cuddles it all day if i let him

Stuffed animals, he nuzzles into them and gives big kisses

He really is a sweet boy and I love watching him grow and learn.

This is living

11 months WOW MOM!

Can I have some of that banana?

Not by the hair on my chiny chin chin!

Pat a cake, pat a cake...clapping is so fun!

I love my cousin Wes!

What mess? Oh this? Cats sure are messy, right mom?

Check out these bad boys. Thats right 3 teeth!

So many reasons to get a dish washer.

But this is the cutest reason

I can't tell you how much I love this boy! He is so much fun. He lights up when he sees Hanalei and daddy! He is so easy going. Anyone can't get him to show off those big yummy dimples!

While in cali he said his first word. Dog, thanks strudel! He signed it at the same time otherwise I might have missed it. It sounds like "og". Since we got home from our trip he has perfected all done and immediately claps after he signs it! If he had his way Waimea would attach his hands permanetly to my hands so he could "walk" around the world. He loves to be outside and loves his trike! I am so blessed to have him in my life!

I love this Kid!

He is so stinking cute. Lately he is a crawling machine. Gets where ever he wants pretty quickly. If he had his choice, he would travel by holding on to the fingers of rusty or myself and walking around the house. He is in love with two things, Hanalei and the kitties. No one can crack him up like they do. Much like his older sister he is a talker. He just babbles on, and can scream louder than something that small should be able to. He finally got a tooth but he doesn't really like showing people. I will try later for another tooth shot.

My Girl!

People always say that Hanalei looks like Rusty. She is all Rueckert.

She might look like a Rueckert but the Wilcox in her sneaks out every now and again.

She has grandma's green thumb

She loves to sing, especially while watering tomatoes

She loves kitties, definitely not from her dad

Wait for it...wheels are turning

Thats MY girl!

Imagination

My little Hanalei has a great imagination. She loves to be a mommy to her dolls, call people on the phone, and give creative reports when dad asks what we did that day. Its so fun to see her expand her mind. Lately we have been making forts and having pretend picnics. This time we had a rain storm so we needed an umbrella.

Feed Me!

Waimea is getting so grown up now. Its crazy how big they seem when you can pretty much throw whatever dinner is, on their tray. Even ribs, Which is surprisingly a great teether with nutritional benifits. And for dessert Waimea dimples. Yummy! Love that boy!
