Landen's Favorite Sitting Spots

On the Move

Landen is now a walking boy. Here he is roaming the yard at grandma Sally and papa Mark's house. At home, he walks from one end of the house to the other and is getting into everything. Trying to keep up with him is exhausting. He is saying a couple of words: what's that?, dada, go go, and then sometimes copy what you say. It's so fun to see him grow. He isn't a baby anymore and we are going to miss this stage of his.

Landen's 1 Year Birthday Party

Landen is 1 yr old. That first year went by so fast! He had a great time at his birthday party. Family and friends came to celebrate with him. He loved eating his cake and enjoyed all of his gifts. It is a Korean tradition for their one year birthday to be dressed up in a Hanbok and to have items placed in front of them to choose their future path. Landen chose rice and thread which means wealth and a long happy life. He we so worn out from his party, but didn't want to nap, so he relaxed on the couch and watched TV.

Loving the Water

For my niece's birthday, we celebrated at Lake George. Landen loved playing in the water. He crawled right in and started splashing away. The best part later was getting all the sand out of his "areas".

11 Months Old

Landen is now 11 months old. I know I missed his 10 month photo, sorry. He is now crawling and getting into everything. He loves to crawl up the stairs. Landen also pulls himself up onto furniture and is starting to walk along the furniture.
He still thinks his older brother Owen is so funny. They are starting to play very well together. It is fun to see them interact with each other. Landen loves being outside and loves water - being in a pool, or at a beach or in his bath will keep him entertained for hours. He is growing up so fast and we can't believe that he'll be 1 year in a month.

First Boat Ride

For Ben's birthday and a little vacation, we rented a cabin up north with some friends. Landen enjoyed his first boat ride - he thought it was quite funny.
