Year Old Portraits

Its been cold and busy couple of weeks here in Central Illinois. Patrick had his one year check-up where he weighed in at 20 lbs 1 oz. and measured 32 inches tall, although he plays like he's 3'1". He also keeps getting faster, and loves chasing me or Meg around the living room. While trying to keep warm through this cold snap, I forgot that I hadn't posted Patrick's one year portraits yet. So here they are.








Here are a couple of shots we took. In one you can see a block tower, moments before Patzilla knocks it over. So far Meg and I have had more fun building things with the blocks than Patrick, but he does like banging them together.




Finally, I wanted to say hello to Meg's cousin Anna, who's giving the site log an international flair while she spends a semester in Galway, County Kildare, Ireland. Drink some Guinness for me.
