Teo Nearing 14-months old!

Our little boy is growing. And getting smarter by the day, it seems. And his palate is expanding as well. I've never had a kid before, but I'm guessing there are few 1-year-olds out there that like Caesar Salad, mushrooms, dried cranberries, raw tomatoes, and a number of other foods I can't even remember, there are so many. And out some grapes or oranges in front of him and he will eat them one by one so fast he doesn't even have time to finish chewing the previous piece.
I wasn't sure how he'd adjust being back in the confines of his home after having spent over a week on a ship that was nothing but new and adventurous surroundings. I thought he'd get bored for sure. But other than losing his balance over the first few days from the after-effects of being on a rolling and rocking ship, he adjusted well. Life is an adventure for him, no matter what, so all is good. And for those of you who might not have seen the pics from the ship vacation on Facebook or the pic website, here it is: www.revdesign.com/Pics/MexicoCruise_May2010/index.html.
The ics here with this post are a few images taken recently. He turns 14-months on June 3, so we'll try and put up a few more pics then. Please check back. In the meantime, enjoy these pics!

New Images/Ready for Vacation

Here's some recent images of Teo, who's growing up real fast. 13-months tomorrow!
Now I understand how children are the images of their parents - and siblings. Teo's mimic skills are unsurpassed. He is without question an amalgam of each of our (Candice, Tanner and Dad's) personalities, traits and mannerisms. Plus mix in his own burgeoning - and forceful - personality, and you have Little Man Teo.
He's about to embark on his first voyage at sea. We're leaving today on a week-long cruise to the "Mexican Riviera" - if you can call it that. (Apparently you can, no doubt the brainchild of some marketing wonk trying to find some attractive-sounding moniker for the Mexican Pacific Coast plagued by recent bad publicity. Or something like that :)
But I digress. Teo will be on the high seas for a week, and hopefully he has inherited the intestinal and seafaring fortitude of his mom and dad and won't get seasick. That would NOT be a fun week for the little guy. We are looking forward to spending a week with family, and hanging out on the beach and boat with the little guy.
Of course we will take lots of pics, so please check back in a couple of weeks for some cruise pics and Teo's trip to his cultural homeland. Well, at least a small part of Teo's homeland (being 1/4 Mexican). To complete THAT scenario, we'd also have to go to Poland, England, Wales and Italy. And maybe be one day we will.
Bon Voyage!
