One Year Old

Jalen is one year old! And this big boy couldn't be busier. Creeping, crawling, dancing, singing, laughing, slapping, clapping, screeching, making general mayhem, and shouting 'NA!' when he doesn't want something are now his daily agenda. At 32 inches, he is still in the 97th percentile for height, and 23 lbs, 11 oz, he's only in the 50th percentile for weight... don't let that fool you though, he's growing (and moving) as fast as ever!

Dallas, Baby

Our little traveler yet again took to the friendly skies, this time to visit 'Aunt Becky' and 'Uncle John' in Dallas, Texas. He treated us all to some fine dining on our first night, but seemed to better enjoy devouring Uncle John's homemade pumpkin waffles the next morning. After a dreary New York winter, he was eager to enjoy the playground, as well as to participate in his first cattle drive (albeit one made of bronze). But mostly he was happy to just take in the sights and hang out with two of his favorite people.
