TheKengFamily: September 2008

It's been a while since my last post August to be exact and here are some random things that have been going on with us...

A couple of weeks ago William and I traveled to Lubbock to see my grandparents and family so they could see William before he turned one. I was so ready and excited to see my family but before I had even left I was already sad and had started missing Wesley like crazy. Of course not a whole lot has changed except the construction in Lubbock is an even bigger nightmare than it was when we moved from there. While we were in Lubbock William did something he has not done before. He actually missed me when I had left him with my parents for a few hours. His whole attitude changed again once he saw me later in the day. Although it was nice to be missed I worry that this "attachment" phase will only get worse. William is still not walking and only has two bottom teeth but the third is coming in. My mom noticed something funny about William. Whenever I would bring the camera out to take a picture of him he will automatically smile or make a cute face towards the camera. Lets see what else...oh yeah... my brother Nicolas began his freshman year at Tech and made the club soccer team. Way to go Nick! We will see him in action when he plays in Austin.

So it's September already and just a few days short of Williams first birthday. Wesley and I (mostly me) have had a few flashbacks of where we were this time last year because we were anxiously awaiting Williams arrival. A year later here we are with a handsome healthy little boy. Williams birthday is coming up next week and we are expecting a houseful of guest. I can't wait for the out-of-towners to get here. His party is going to be cute. The theme is a safari birthday. Wesley found William the cutest outfit for the occasion. There are still a few little things we need to get but is going to be fun! That's about it for now...Here are some pictures of William from our trip to Lubbock.
