Happy Birthday Escher!

Two years ago I was walking the halls of Saint Francis Hospital, anxious to meet the little guy who had been kicking my insides for what seemed like forever. After walking, walking, more walking and laboring in the tub, then pushing for hours, Escher was finally brought into this world at 8:12pm. Needless to say, he has completely changed our life. Escher brings laughter and joy to everyone that meets him. His zest for life is encouraging and inspirational. He throws himself with reckless abandon into everything that he does, whether it is playing at the beach, eating dinner, or disovering science experiments in our front yard. Every day we watch in amazement as he hones a new skill or learns a new word. We relish every kiss and hug, and our hearts burst with love as we watch him grow.



I'm still in awe that this came out of me! 7.3lbs...



This picture, without a doubt, is my most favorite picture of Escher.



And this picture, while being my most not favorite picture of me (please pardon the frizzy hair!), it is our first picture together as a 3 person family.


This is Escher, today. This morning, in fact! Doing his most favorite indoor activity, jumping on our bed. Happy Birthday, "Dude", we love you so much!
