Days Later

I made tons of cupcakes. They tasted awful, but Travis didn't know the difference. So he ate all of them. He had so much fun eating them up.





He couldn't stop laughing at himself.


He's such a sweet boy. He kept offering Mama some.



Travis' 1st Birthday Party

Travis had too much fun at his birthday. He was an absolute TERROR, wanting to show off for everyone. He wasn't quite sure what to think of his cupcake. I had to make one especially for him. He cannot have regular cake like we can. And I haven't quite mastered the "from scratch" stuff. But for my boy I will.



Audrey and her little friend had no problem helping brother with his presents.

You can see Travis wouldn't keep still for long. We never really got any good pictures of him.

Although I got a lot of grief about his cake, it was just what I wanted!

Mama's little peanut. I have to joke about the situation or I won't get throughout it. Thank you to everyone that tried so hard for his birthday. We really appreciate everything. I know it was a sacrifice! No peanuts, but yall made it through.

Thank you again. You have no idea what it mean to us.

After the 1st bite Trav couldn't get enough. He was so precious with those cupcakes.


To update you on Travis' condition.

We have joined quite a few groups for food allergies. Travis is not the only child in Houston with this condition. Everyday I meet more and more families who live with this.

Since we have been being so careful Travis has been very healthy. It isn't that we don't want to see anyone, but the less he is exposed the better. No ear infections in 5 weeks and no hospital trips in 5 weeks! What a blessing. Travis has been such a happy child. I know he misses everyone.

I am on a committee for the FAAN walk a thon. Soon I will be taking donations.

Thank you for all of the support!

Travis' 1st Birthday

Mommy's Boy!
We decided to go to Granny's house from Trav's bday.
We could barely keep him still. We took his clothes off to eat. He is just like Daddy and PawPaw- messy!


Daddy was showing his boy the baby chicks Granny just got. Travis could not get enough of them. He walked around and around the cage.

We all know how much Audrey loves being a big sister. He had the best time playing at Granny's. It's probably because she lets him get away with everything!

My little boy is all grown up! I cannot believe he is one! He has the sweetest face.

But he is half demon- he gets that from Derik's side. Last weekend at my mom's he tore the texture and sheetrock off of the wall in her bedroom. Of course Mamaw wasn't as upset as Mommy. We will have to take that out of his college fund.
