Peek-a-booo

If you can't find James, he's most often found behind the curtains. If you say "Where's James?"...you just hear a laugh and see his little feet hanging out under the curtain. Sometimes Lenny tries to join him, but with his 117 lb body, he's a sure giveaway!

Do I have something on my face?

Party Animal...

Here's James exactly 1 year ago! Even at such a young age, he was excited to see a beer bottle! We see trouble in the future....

The Many Faces of James...

Who is this baby????!!!

This picture just amazes me. He looks so big!! What happened to my little baby? James will be 17 months on August 18th. Amazing. His latest word, is yellow..but sounds more like "nellow". He's such a show off. Anything that looks a bit like yellow, he points and says "nellow". And then claps for himself! We also hear him saying "nellow" over the baby monitor. Must be the newest, coolest word at daycare.

4th of July in PA

We spent the 4th of July in PA with the Bathon's. It was such a great time...we relaxed, had many laughs, too much to eat/drink, ate crabs, watched fireworks (Tucker, in particular, loved them!) and spent quality family time together. We also had the opportunity to finally meet Uncle Tim's girlfriend Rhonda!! It was a wonderful trip, and of course, it's always sad to leave. We hope to return soon!!

Introducing....

the newest member of our family.....Tucker Bathon Rapa!!! We were so excited to meet our new nephew/cousin over July 4th! He's just a toddler now, but he's growing very rapidly and will be a big boy just like cousin Lenny! James absolutely loved Tucker, until he went for his blankie!!!
