Happy Birthday, Boy #1

Yes, it has been a busy week at our house. Sweet Girl's birthday was Monday, school started yesterday and today......

....this little guy turned 12! My sweet baby boy was born in Dickinson, ND. His doctor was known as the "Racing Stork" because he drove racecars as a hobby. In fact, while he was waiting for my labor to progress he left to go work on his race car. He was just happy that I didn't go into labor on the weekend while he was actually out on the track.

Oh, how my boy loved Veggie Tales when he was little!

He would work for hours helping Grandpa do chuckwagon cooking. He still would if we lived nearby.
Such a goofball with all his silly expressions!

Now that he is 12 I guess he is too cool to smile for the camera. My little baby is now taller than me (I know, I know - that isn't saying much). He loves to fish. He is intrigued by weather and storms. He will start jr. high football as soon as his arm is completely healed. I am very proud of the young man he is becoming.

Happy Birthday, Boy #1! I love you!
