It's already June!!

It has been a while since I last updated the blog =(. Since Toshi is napping right now I figured I can write something up real quick.

Toshi's development has been so quick the last few months. Both Dawn and I were wondering if he was ever going to crawl since he preferred to stand. However, the first "step" was the backwards crawl to a seated position and then we realized he LOVES the iPad or our phones. These objects were like cookies for him.  He showed signs of wanting to crawl and sure enough within a few days he was  mobile.  Our lives just got a little crazier, right??

Well it's also pretty cool when you think about it since my arms can finally take a break from holding his beefy frame. I don't know if I could hold him for more than 10-15 minutes!!! Yes, he's that solid haha. He's also an enormous heat generator. I started off this blog mentioning that Toshi is sleeping ... I love to hold him and let him sleep on me, while I still can, but the time has come that he prefers to sleep in his bed. He actually sleeps on his side these days so maybe that's why he'd prefer his bed. I can't complain either since I get really hot when he sleeps on me.

We recently sent out his invitations for his first birthday. These were the pictures we chose and narrowed it down from there. Having him sit still is really, really hard haha.

This picture was a straight up mug shot haha. None of us like this one but I'd thought I share it with everyone.

I liked this picture but too bad I wasn't directly in front of him.  I don't have Photoshop skills, yet, to remove the bib and all.  If you haven't noticed yet Toshi loves to eat!! He eats so well for every meal I just hope he doesn't grow sideways too much.  I remember that I spent all my money, from my first job, on food. I loved going out to eat all the time with friends ... sure enough though you gain weight haha. Let's hope Toshi doesn't eat THAT much :)

This is a picture we chose since he was dressed up and had a koi fish behind him. He just looks a little "WTH" don't you think? haha.

Lastly, this picture was great. Every time I see this pic I wanna say, "Hey guuurl, how you doin??"

Dawn and I can't believe this little guy came out 6 weeks early, super tiny baby, and now he's like a little boy now. He's grown so much and he is someone that makes me smile after I come home from work. I can't believe he'll be one soon. It has gone by way too fast.
