ONE YEAR OLD

our sweetest baby boy has turned one. i feel so blessed to have celebrated the first birthdays of three children. rishi has really mixed things up around here, we went from gliding along like a canoe to racing around like a speedboat. life since rishi has been so fun and crazy and he truly completes our family. we had a very lovely morning celebrating his birth with my two girlfriends and their children. it was very simple with a homemade pumpkin apple harvest cake and homemade decorations. the only thing more i could have asked for, would be for my mom to have been able to join us.

today rishi hung with the shan boys. the toddlers kept the babies entertained, as always.

tonight, the kids and i watched 'the wizard of oz' and rishi seemed to really enjoy the music. when 'ding dong the witch is dead' was playing, he started bouncing and dancing and shimmying from side to side. it's really cute when he dances because he's so chubby it's just so cute.

rishi is mr. grumpy pants most of the time these days. not sure if it is the teething, or the itching (skin issues) but the boob always makes it better so whatever is buggin' the bugger, it can't be THAT bad. still only pretty much taking one step and then throwing himself at me, still only wants to be in the ergo and is SO not having me put him in a stroller for any reason whatsoever. still pretty much the cutest baby boy you ever did see, only since the last cutest baby boy you ever did see, who would be my deepak :)

tonight we went to deepak's winter concert. we were in the back row with all the other parents of toddlers and babies. luckily we were able to check deepak out right after his class performed. not sure how much longer rishi would've lasted. they babes did look ADORBS though in these coordinated tops from gymboree.

today we ran errands in the rain..........costco, winco (despise the service but can't beat the prices) and the christmas tree farm. we took a really cool drive we'd never been on before and found a great farm with fresh cut trees. they were half off and they would be shaken, baled and tied to our car for free! we found a gorgeous 7/8 ft. noble fir, for $30! we paid 3x that for our tree back in socal. gotta love oregon!
