Shea just turned the big oh-one. Oh, the responsibilities that come with being one year old!

Responsibility #1: grandpa's personal trainer.
How else do you think he stays young at heart?

Responsitility #2: goo-goo ga-ga factor.
You ever notice that when a baby enters a room all the adults loose focus on what they were doing, and gravitate toward said baby, coohing and talking incoherently? "Wuzzamatter, there-there, boo-boo have a wittle owie?" No wonder Shea ends up crying harder - big people don't make sense!

Responsibility #3: Momma's heart warmer.
'Nuff said about this. Just look at Mayet's face; it says it all.

Won-derful was supposed to be spelled "One-derful". You know, the number 1, as in Shea's FIRST birthday.

"Not yet Shea. First, eat your dinner."
(What did I say about kids and nutrition?)


Make a wish Shea!
Now what would a 1 year old possibly wish for?
The Nobel Prize.
To be a rockstar.
To be a superhero.
(Oh, wait, those are MY wishes.)

A blue and green striped pony.
(Ok, now we're talkin'.)
(I know, I know!)
To live in a toy store!

Yes, that's it.
To live in a toy store.


Grandpa, time for our workout. Carry me!

"Shea, wow, you really work your grandpa hard!"

Alright Grandpa, hold the balloon.

Hold it for 7 more counts...

In the meantime, Abmel is contemplating the hazards of taking home that box of pizza. "There are 9 slices of pizza here. Each slice is approximately a thousand calories. J.S. is going to kill me for bringing all these calories home. To get rid of a thousand calories I have to curl twenty-five pounds one hundred times... Ugh, this is giving me a headache!"

"Come on Tito Abmel. Calories are all relative. Think of them as fuel for your workouts."

"I guess I could throw in a few squats and sit-ups too... Ok, I'll take it!"

"Dear pizza. I love you. I love food. I love to eat. Farewell. Be good for Tito Abmel."

Me like yummy Mickey Mouse chicken nuggets!

Responsibility #4: Make sure Momma and Dadda keep the fridge full.
Nobel, schnobel! I just wanna eat, poop, and sleep. I'm the big Oh-One!




















awww I love it, you're so talented!
