Look Who’s Walking Now [Photos]

MotivationAs some people have bore witness to already, our son is up on two feet with nothing standing in his way these days. I had also promised early last week to share some photos and a little video of Christian showing off his latest talents, so it’s time to make good on that promise.

Here are a few images from us with Christian shooting out in the hallway of our condo building.

Maybe it was just a little cabin fever being smack in the middle of winter these days, but both of us had fun running through the halls with Christian for a little bit on Sunday. It seems he gets a kick out of it, too, when you’re standing next to him one second and taking off full speed the other way. Seems like foreshadowing to some great afternoons outdoors this spring and summer.

Fortunately, no other tenants were disturbed during the photo session or the shooting of this video. :)

X-Mas Morning [Photos]

Again?Do you remember your first x-mas morning at the early age of one? Me neither.

At least Christian will have photos to look back to, anyway.

While he obviously had know concept of waking up early for presents, something with his internal clock woke him up about 30 minutes earlier than usual. We still managed to get through the normal morning routine, however, before getting to the presents around 10am. We didn’t go overboard with presents this first year, so there wasn’t a ton to open.

But as you can tell, he still had fun.

Playtime [Photos]

PagesNow that the Daily Baby project is officially completed, and the baby luau in the books, I’m already into my new weekly project covering the second year for our little guy.

More details on the project coming soon, but on Sunday Christian and I hung out in the nursery for about a half hour and I captured a glimpse of playtime that I wanted to share with everyone that’s been wondering what he’s been up to after turning the Big O-N-E.

Christian’s Baby Luau [Photos]

Birthday SmileWell, the first year has come and gone, and we had a great baby luau to celebrate Christian’s first birthday.

And as you’d expect, Papa was there with camera in hand to capture all the fun times. We were so happy that our friends and family could be there to celebrate with us, and even the ones that couldn’t make it were still able to drop in to say Aloha!

As we look ahead to what this next year has in store for our ‘ohana, we are truly blessed with all the support we’ve received during our first year as parents. It’s been so great being able to share the happiness our son brings us with all of you.

Enjoy the photos,

Turkey Day 2011 [Photos]

Gobble, Gobble.

I hoped you enjoyed your Turkey Day as much as we did, and if you’re not already shopped out with Black Friday shopping, maybe some photos from our feast will bring you some cheer.

With this being Christian’s first Turkey Day, and his first birthday less than 10 days away, you just knew we’d be capturing photos, didn’t you? Dinner lasted a little over 2 1/2 hours, so there was so much to do – and our little guy was a true champ throughout.

Enjoy the photos, as well as a few of our favs below:
