Here's my nephew, Nathan, at almost eleven months old (I can't believe it!). Look at all those teeth! I see both his mother and father in that darling face of his. Can't you just hear the laughter? His Grandma was spoon feeding him his dinner while I was disruptively playing peek-a-boo from behind her and around her hoping to catch the joy from our little game with my camera. He gave me more than joy... he always does!
Here are some things that must give Nathan joy because they are his three most frequently used words: "ball," "dog," and "bubble."
Nathan impressed us all with another little game one day. We were all sitting around the table at Cracker Barrel and Gayle asks her little boy, "Nathan, where's Grandpa?" and Nathan looks around the table and stops his eyes on none other than his Grandpa. We all clap and he smiles at the positive attention. "Nathan," his mama continues, "Where's Sarah?" Nathan shifts his gaze to the other end of the table and looks directly at his sister. The table erupts with hoorays and claps again.
Will he know me I began to wonder as Gayle keeps quizzing her son. "Nathan, where's Daddy?" Nathan finds his daddy's familiar face at the table. Cheers! "Nathan, where's Auntie Dawn?" My heart skips a beat. Does he see me enough to really recognize me? Nathan began to move and those darling blue eyes met with mine! What a feeling. Now he's just showing off!
Made You Smile,
Dawn (& Nathan)

What a cutie he is! Hard to believe he's almost a whole year old already. Time sure does fly by quickly!
You DID make me smile- and so did Nathan! What a handsome little guy- he'll be popular with the ladies! :) Thanks for the compliment about my snowy berry picture. I was having fun with my new camera, though I don't know the lingo/features yet... I'd love to take a class! Keep on posting on, I love reading your udates!
