Hi

This is Orion's new shirt from Auntie Jenny and Uncle Jason. It has his name on the top and the picture of Orion's belt...the picture is a little fuzzy but that expression is priceless. This video is very dark, but I had to share it because he was trying to repeat almost every word we were saying tonight and Hi was sort of clear at times. He was in a great mood tonight, most likely because he actually took 2 naps today instead of the 1 a day that he has been taking for the past few weeks. Kevin and I were cracking up all night long at him!

We had another party for Orion yesterday with Kevin's family and some friends. It's official, we need a new house for all the gifts Orion got! Even though we were packed in we had a great time celebrating and eating the yummy soup that Kevin made. Thanks for the recipe Uncle Bruce!
