climbing up the slide

determined to win the race

sharing his cup with Chucky

in Old Mesilla with the boys

The Horcicas left for a day and a half to go visit their Aunt in Arizona
and Maverick was very upset about it

hiking with the Horcicas

Our friends the Horcicas (Hor-see-kuh) came up from College Station to see us

Hugging the slides goodbye, it's always bittersweet leaving the park

Climbing at the park closest to our house

Pointing at his cousins, he loves doing this in the morning

Swing in the park on daddy's lunch break

We got daddy's diplomas framed! And it was quite a task keeping Maverick from breaking everything in the framing aisle at Hobby Lobby.

Our Maverick letters Aunt DiNana and Mommy made

The first thing he does when we go in the back yard is head for the pretty glass mushrooms from Aunt Diana & Uncle Randy. He constantly pulls them up and tries to rearrange them.

We usually watch his Baby Signing Time video a few times a week.

I have to constantly move him farther back from the t.v. but he usually wins the war.

He LOVES brushing his teeth.
He would probably brush them all day long if mommy would let him.

He also became a big fan of the slide

He makes several girlfriends at the park

After Maverick turned one, he finally mastered the sippy cup

The next day Aunt Diana and Uncle Randy came to celebrate Maverick's birthday. He loved all his presents from them, the Warners and Great Grandma & Grandpa

cake I'm saving for Aunt Jessi

Maverick turns ONE!!!!
We had a birthday party for Maverick on his actual birthday, Jan 27th. Over 25 adults and 4 kids showed up. He was a little overwhelmed for the first ten minutes but then got really excited and enjoyed himself. We were so busy during the party I barely got any pictures, sorry!

Our sweet friend Marit made this from his invitation!

Maverick got to open gifts from both grandparents and Aunt Debby and uncle Ed before his party.

Rex from Debby and Ed

Maverick played with the punch bowl I borrowed from church all morning.

party favors (chocolate)

jello bars, they were prettier when I cut them up and served but I forgot to take a picture

balloons!

Maverick's reaction to the balloons when he woke up

Kitchen

Maverick loves to play in the kitchen cabinets

This is one of his cute puma outfits from Aunt Debby and Uncle Ed for his birthday
We go on walks around the neighborhood around 5pm before Daddy comes home from work. Maverick's expression says it all...
Sorting
Maverick likes to somewhat organize things. Whether he's in the bath tub, playing in his toy box or eating. Here he is organizing his food...

Playing Outside
Maverick loves going outside. Our favorite part of our house is the back yard where he can explore...

He had to bring his broom outside with him

I just took these pics because this was his first outfit he wore to our new church. A very nice lady named Coleen takes care of him in the nursery. I always find him asleep on her when church is over.

Maverick got many toys for Christmas that he can ride. Mom and Dad spend a majority of their time pulling him around on his zebra, train, bike, ect.

Maverick enjoys taking objects out of places and putting them back.

Happy New Year!!
We were all invited to a party at the house of a family from the church. We got to meet a lot of people but of course went home a little early for mister maverick.
