Happy 1st Birthday Cannon!!

A year ago today, sweet Cannon Quinn joined our family! We had not decided on a name until after he was born.

Colin and Cannon were the top two names.

Carter was so excited to be a big brother.
Finally home and ready to sleep (or not) in our own bed.

Cannon seemed like he had so much hair compared to Carter. Cannon just had darker hair, but not much more than his big brother.


Ahhh, I remember the time when he would sleep...

Cannon is a light sleeper. Unlike his big brother who slept through the bathroom remodel.

This is one of my favorite pictures of the boys.


This one too...



Cannon's first Christmas

The last week of December, Cannon made his first road trip to Pampa.

Smiling!

We stopped at a bounce house in Fort Worth on the way back. I think he enjoyed it??


Cannon enjoyed tummy time.

This picture just cracks me up

He weighed one pound less than Carter when he was born. He seemed so tiny.

He put on weight fast and quickly outgrew his bassinet.




Carter teaching Cannon how to lift up his head.

Cannon loved being carried in the sling.


Baths were a hit!
The bouncer too.

Again, enjoying the tummy time. Carter would have none of it as a baby, but Cannon loved it!


Carter is such a good big brother.

Another favorite picture.

Finally time for the exersaucer / jumper. One of my favorite toys!


Starting solids. We loved this face. He would bite down on the spoon and wrinkle his forehead.

Trying to flip over.

The exersaucer (applesaucer according to Carter) and Grammiki's

Cannon hanging out in the sling helping me vacuum. This picture was discovered by the folks at Baby K'tan (the makers of the sling) on my blog and landed him on their website.


Agh! Teething! Cannon got his first tooth when he was 5 months old.

Sitting up well!


He loves his elephant, we got this as a gift from my friend Carmie, Marc and Isabella.

Starting with the low-crawl.

Another favorite. I just want to kiss those cheeks! and toes. and fingers.



June was the month to travel. Hanging out at the Hamlin's lakehouse.

Then to Sea World...



And Houston...


And then back home...



Cannon loves baths with his big brother!


Pulling up well now and getting ready to walk!



I'm so excited it got cold enough for Cannon to wear this jacket - it was Carter's. :)



These were taken on Cannon's last day as an 11 month old!
