Sun Bathing Baby

Here is Malachi's little sunshine pool. He really enjoys splashing in the water and playing with his boats. Every morning when I open the blinds, he looks out the window and points to his pool and says, "pool." This first picture is the first time he went in the pool so he is a little unsure. Now he loves his pool. We also go to our community pool and he loves the water there also.

Malachi in Texas

Here is Malachi and Daddy at the Riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas. We had fun walking along the water, seeing ducks, eating and taking the riverboat.
Here is Malachi with Mommy and Daddy at a wedding for Mommy's friend, Lisa.

Here is Malachi at the wedding reception. Look at his hair getting blonder.

Here is the Texas Mexican, little Ranchero. He is such a happy baby all of the time.

First Trip to the Zoo

Malachi had a great time going to the Santa Barbara Zoo last week. He loved watching the animals. We really enjoyed watching him point at each animal and ask us questions, in baby language, of course. This is a white leopard behind Malachi. He would copy us growling at it. Here is Malachi with the elephants. He didn't care too much about them because they were slow and didn't move much. He liked the birds, penguins, and flamingos the best.

Malachi is 1

Malachi is learning to count and he just learned how old he is. He is showing you that he is one year old.
This was on Sunday when Malachi is all ready for church. He is in his crawling position.

Malachi's First Haircut

As hard as it was, mommy gave Malachi his first haircut. I had to make him the little toddler boy he is now. But I think it just makes him more handsome. :)

Here is his before shot. (He was even getting curls in the back.)

And... his after shot. What a handsome surfer boy. He is now 13 months.

Malachi's First Birthday

So, I am a little late on this but I wanted to send some pictures of Malachi enjoying his birthday. Here is his new car from mommy and daddy. He loves to go for walks and drive his car. Here is his #1 pinata. He had fun hitting it, even though he didn't get any candy.

Here is his teddy bear cake that Grandma Debbie made for him. It was so funny that when we went to take his picture with the cake, he did the same pose with his hand as the bear. Too cute!

Another Eleven Month Picture

Here is the cute little boy. He loves playing with his socks and he always has this thing where he takes off the left sock with his right foot. We have lost so many left foot socks or had to go back and look for them at stores or on walks.
