Happy 4th of July! Porter loved the sparklers!

Our Family Pics

Here are some of the highlights from our photo session in late September. I thought a lot turned out really great. Hope you enjoy.

Happy Birthday

Right now Porter loves kisses! When he gives them, they are always open mouthed, but when he gets them he just smiles and smiles! He loves being tickled and sometimes laughs in anticipation. He is also getting really smart and loves opening cupboards and banging everything. He is such a goer and sometimes will bang on the door the the garage, signaling to me.....hello mom, isn't it about time to get out of this place. I can't believe my little man is one all ready, but it has been so much fun to be apart of his life.





Porter had a great Birthday, and a great chocolate cake! When your birthday is right next to Christmas you do get to celebrate with a lot of family.

Christmas

Porter is such an early bird! He goes to bed a little earlier than the Schanz Family is used to, and usually when the party is just getting started. So this little man had a great nights rest on Christmas Eve.
My mom twisted Justin's arm until he agreed to sing a duet with Brook. They always sound great, but how could they not when they are both awesome!
Nathan Sang "Christmas Shoes" on Christmas Eve. What a great tradition.
This is Porter at the Butler Family Christmas Party, Porter hated Santa!

Christmas presents

I made these aprons for Justin's mom and Sister-in-law, Ashlee, for Christmas. Aren't they so cute, I just thought I would mention it.
