february 1, 2010 - simon's 1st birthday!

simon amuses us while we sing happy birthday to him. he will get cake on february 7 at his b-day brunch - we are mean, but not that mean. well actually see below and you can decide. be kind, please.

after all the festivities of the morning - birthday banana and

singing, simon visits the doctor on his 1st birthday. he's

happy, though, that he gets to hang out with dad for the day.

bud's birthday karaoke

date night for christie & eric - YEAH! bud has his birthday at the highball.

eric sings 'if heaven ain't a lot like dixie.' they didn't have it on the playlist, so eric set up a boom box with headphones to 'sing' the song on his own. it was a beautiful experience. so beautiful amy wipes tears - laughing tears.
