a keeper

Oh how blessed we are to have Michael in our lives. 

I never doubted his ability to be a good Dad. He was raised by Parental Pros.

From day 1 as a Dad, he has rocked it. Michael has changed just as many diapers, made and given just as many bottles to Banks, and played with him for just as much time as I have. He is ALWAYS willing to lend a helping hand and I usually don't have to ask because he is already on the ground wrestling with Banks or playing the guitar for him. 

I lucked out ladies, big time. 

Banks totally prefers Michael over me and that's no secret. When Michael is home, Banks is constantly following him around, trying to crawl up his legs to get him to pick him up. He does this to me about half as much. Gospel truth. Michael is a pretty great Dad and I couldn't do it without him.

We Love You Daddy!

Plus, he let me order an insane number of these fantastic chairs to go around the table...plus some.

Like I said, I lucked out

Big Time.

We've got a crazy man on our hands.

We call this move... The Shrimpy.

11 Months

As of yesterday, the Banker man is 11 months old! I cannot believe next month he will be 1! Crazy how this last year has just flown by. He'll be walking pretty soon so stayed tuned for that.

it's been a while

We just had internet installed in our house on Wednesday which is why I've been MIA for the last 2 weeks. We are finally all moved in minus our sofas that I am anxiously awaiting. There are so many things to do when you buy a house. So many fix this and buy this, and do this type of stuff. More than I thought. Oh well. It's all part of growing up I guess. Enjoying the summer and excited for many more fun days ahead.

This little lady graced us with her presence late Monday night. 

So excited for my first niece EVER.

Good work Sam and Chas!
