The Willis

Dave calls this the "Larson face" :-)


Please enjoy the chub and mohawk on Willis!





Happy Birthday to our little Will!! He is such a sweetheart. I can't believe that he is 2 years old. Somehow it seems like he has always been with us. He has really been such a joy. He is the happiest, messiest, heaviest, funniest, smartest baby that I've had. Will doesn't do anything middle of the road, he is always the extreme. But the one thing about Will is he was such a joy to have as a baby. Maybe because I really needed him after my Mom died, or maybe because I was just more comfortable as a mom, but I really have enjoyed his babyhood. And an added bonus, he was my only baby that really has liked me to cuddle him. Love it! Except for the fact that he has been double the weight of a normal baby, so holding him sometimes is a bit much! :-)
I always kind of feel sad when a baby turns 2 because to me it is kind of the end of their babyhood and start of their childhood/toddlerness. But to me he will always be my baby, a guess like my other 2 as well. I just can't believe what sweet miracles they all are in my life. I am such a lucky mom! Two things I love about Willis are how he loves having his blankie and his binky (which he boths calls Kiki) and how he loves having his shoes on. He is such a funny kid. Happy Birthday to my sweet Will!!!

Oh Mr. Willis!!!! Happy Birthday little man!! He is basically my favorite. Our kiddos have a lot to live up to, because I'm pretty sure I compare every baby to the "cuteness" of Willis. And Dave is right on the "Larson face" - it totally is. I know the face well because I do it all the time. :) Tell Willis Happy Birthday for me!!
