Will Originals

As you can tell, Will had a blast painting! I wasn't so excited about the clean-up but it was definitely worth it! I have my very own Will Buckley originals!

Fathers Day!

Grace, Grandpa John and Will
Grandma and Mike
Justin, Grace and Andrea
Very sleepy guy.
We had a great evening with the family, and as you can tell Will was a bit pooped by the end of the night. A little rest on the ball and he was ready for more!

Backyard Fun!

Will has more fun playing with this hose than all of his toys put together!
His favorite digging spot!
Flirting with the camera....and mom.
The BEST $120 ever spent!! Swinging has always been one of Will's greatest loves, and now he finally has it back! He's loved swinging ever since birth...literally...he lived in his swing!

Will's first emergency trip to the doctors!

Last night I was opening a package that I had ordered, a set of glass tuperware for the kitchen. And Will, being the helpful little guy he is, reached in and tried to help pull out one of the dishes . He had barely touched the glass dish when he quickly pulled his hand away and I noticed blood dripping from his finger. After saying a few choice words I grabbed some tissues and dad and we held pressure to it for what seemed like a good 30 minutes. To make a long story short, the pressure wasn't helping and the more we got to looking at it...the cut was pretty deep and not looking so good. I had to go to work so Mike ended up taking Will to the after hours kids clinic and had them check it out. Will didn't end up needing stiches but they did irrigate it, put dermabond (glue) on it, wrapped it up, gave him some Motrin and sent them on their way. I'm very proud of both of my guys, Will for being such a brave little trooper and Mike for....well...the same. Mike's not a big fan of doctors offices and blood so I'm proud of him too! I was feeling horribly guilty for not being there for Will but I knew he was in great hands with his dad. We ended up calling Crate and Barrel (the company I had ordered the dishes from) today to ask whether we needed to return just the broken bowl or the entire set...as we were talking to them we told them what had happened to Will. They were horrified and the next thing we know we get a call from Crate and Barrel's management saying that they were going to pay for all of Will's medical bills and they were sending us a replacement set of bowls for no charge! We are so grateful to them! We'll definitely be shopping with them again and hope you will too! And as you can see from the picture, Will is doing great!

Will's first trip to the zoo!

We've been reading so many books to Will about animals that we were so excited to take him to the zoo and show him the real things! He loved the elephants and even waved goodbye to them! The zebras and monkeys were also a huge hit! Will got to see a tiger in the water "taking a bath" which he thought was really funny! And as we were watching the zebras, two ducks that were also in the exhibit were..well...mating and quacking wildly...Will was bent over at the belly giggling like crazy! Don't you just love nature! And of course the train ride was the topper!

Daddys Boy!

As much as Will is a mama's boy, he adores his daddy.

Best Friends

As you can tell by the photos, Bogey and Will are already best buds! And they love to snuggle, especially when watching cartoons!
