My inspiration

Dad has been working on a new project.
He wants to get all the pictures on the computer cropped and edited.
He isn't very good and doesn't know what he is doing.
Someone once said people take 80 pictures and show all of them. A photographer takes 80 pictures and shows 8.
Oh yeah and he is working on inspirational quotes. Look to see some on his work blog also.

Mommy and daddy went to a dinner last night and they came home with a couple of cool toys.

I really like the bird house because it plays two songs. We have played with them so much we have created a dance and Ian sings along.

Here let me show you.

I love swimming. Even if it is a bit dirty what do I care, I'm a boy, heck I pee in the pool.
Who needs this silly bathing suit, I'm probably naked.
Hmm a water fountain, I think I'll take a sip. Maybe go swimming.
The Smith cousins from left to right. Andi (she's not a cousin yet) Boo Boo holding me, Derrick in the back, Zack holding my brother Ian, and Chelsi.
Amazingly enough my brother and I can sometimes play well together.

First Birthday

I know it has been a while since I turned one year old. I have just been so busy that I can't seem to get anything done. First let me show you some pictures of my birthday party, then maybe I'll let Ian show you some pictures of the parades we have been in this summer.

Lot's of people stopped by for my day time birthday party. 

Ian and mommy helped me get my toys working. 

This is one of my favorite toys. That is if I can get it away from Ian. 

I love birthday cake. 

Piggers

Dad used to have a nickname, Piggers. He got the name because one day Grandma and Grandpa Murphy dressed him in his Sunday best and went to a party with him. Later he was found playing happily in a mud puddle. 

Do it Yourself

I want to thank dad for at least trying to be a good dad. He really needs the help. Hopefully in the future I won't have to spend too many millions on a therapist.

Here is the web site he found this week, but honestly how much can Kiwi's really know about parenting?

This is me helping.

Free hugs

This is something That the world could use a little bit more of.

How about a hug from mom and dad.
