By George... I think He's GOT IT!

ok.. it's seriously just the little things.. but he learned how to drink out of a straw today.. and drank his first juice box!  He loved it.  Go Porter J!  By the way.. if you're totally bored you should do a search of juice box images..  "Why are there so many"?  it's creepy!

We're dog sitting our friends doggie this week.. every where I go they follow... Porter.. Carter.. and Bob.. I'm like the Mama Duck.

Also.. today we went to http://munchkinplayland.com/  It's like a coffee/sandwich shop for adults and has a rock'n little kid play area.. Porter loved it!  We met up with another new Mom that just adopted from Ethiopia.  Fun times!  We'll definitely be back.  

Have some fun on St. Paddy's Day!

He likes to look out the window!

This is what being a Mom.. is allllllll about!!

Hallelujah!

Received the Certificate of Citizenship in the mail today.  Can you believe it.. 6 weeks...!  Woo Hoo.. happy dance!  Thought that was going to be a major fiasco.. couldn't have been easier!  Back to social security tomorrow to get his name and status corrected.. and then we have made it through ALL the paperwork.. WOW.. let's celebrate!

It Tastes Like Chicken!

Chris made his famous homemade chicken strips which are "crazy awesome"!!  Someone decide to put chicken in his hair!!  Why, I don't know.. but he sure thought it was funny!

Surprise!!

ok.... nothing to do with Porter J.. but it's worth an honorable mention.. My Mom and I threw a surprise 40th b-day party for my sister.. it was awesome.. she had no idea.  We had this in the works since December!  It was just a few of her closest friends at a small wine bar last Saturday.. it was great!

I swear we didn't plan to wear the same color.

Did I mention my Mom makes the best ranch, EVER!

We gave out personalize wine glasses as party favors

Gram 2 and the birthday girl

Fun times.... Good memories!

Fun Times with Porter

Here are some pictures of what Porter does when I'm working in the kitchen...

I swear I didn't put the bag on his head.. he did it himself!

I just got home from grocery shopping and he wanted a grocery bag.. WOW.. cheap entertainment!  And seriously.. how can you say "No" to that smile?  I'm screwed.

Do you have any idea how many times I've picked up tupperware!

Daddy showed him how to climb the stairs... good times!

I can't remember what he was laughing at.. but he sure did think something was funny.  Look at him, in his little doggie jammies.. Cute Cute Cute!  Ready for beddy-by-time!
