St. Joachim Is My Hero

Hello! My name is Joachim and as you can tell, St. Joachim is my hero. Obviously I was named after him, but who is he? Well, he is the grandfather of Jesus! His daughter was Mary, who became the Mother of Jesus. Pretty sweet, huh? I thought so too. Thanks for viewing my blog. I hope you like it. And it saves me from using up all my Mom's cell phone minutes trying to keep in touch with all my family and friends. Love you!

Catching up!


Ok, we have some catching up to do since I went so long without posting. Sorry, but I was so busy during April I just couldn't find the time.

This picture says, "Get off your high horse and enjoy the blog!" ...or should I say "get ON it?"


I made it to my 2nd annual "Sara, Adrienne, & Brett Combined Birthday Party." Yes, that's right, I went to my first one last year when I was only 5 days old! Last year's theme...Tube Sock Party, this year's theme...Wear a shirt/accessories from somewhere foreign. Mom wore a Scotland shirt that Uncle Eric brought back, Dad wore a German soccer jersey of Matt's, and I wore my I love NY that Kelley brought me. New York is a foreign place right? And they wore their sombreros too, while I just poured the champagne.


Also, I made it to my first Royals game! It was so fun (even though the pic doesn't show it)!! And the Royals WON!

My friend Kim was with us too. I got tired, so here I am in my pj's ready for bed right after the Friday night fireworks!


Here's me with my friend, Alan, from Daddy's work. We all went out to lunch with everyone from the office for Dad's birthday.

And he I am with my cousins. Who belongs to who? A hint: no mommy is holding their own baby!


And here's me on Easter! Boy I loved playing with those plastic eggs!!


This is the birthday cake that Great Grandma made for Daddy. He let me help blow out the candles.


And here I am with Uncle Eric. Just trying to show that I love all my uncles the same!

Ok...until next time...laugh a lot and pray hard...for that is what makes life good!

Happy Birthday to ME!

Mmmm...boy howdy, this cake is good! I love eating with my hands and getting it all over my face. Yum!
Yes, I am ONE! Grandma didn't let me grab my cake, but I sure tried. Cool tractor, huh? My Daddy made it. He rocks!
Balloons are so much fun!
Yep, that's right. I just blew out my first candle in this pic!
After all the cake, I got to open presents. Thanks so much to everyone for your amazing generosity. I love all my new books & toys so much!

But one of the very best gifts was this beautiful red wagon!! My Daddy refinished it and now he's takes me for rides in it. Can life get any better than this?
Did you notice the words on the side? This is definitely a limited edition vehicle!
Thanks Uncle Jon for coming to my party! And thanks to all my other Uncles and Aunts and cousins and friends and family. You are all SOOOOOOOOOOOO great.
This is me partying all night long! All the sugar in the cake (well...probably a lot of it came from the icing...the best part if you ask me) made me stay up late. Boy was I hyper! BLAH!!
And on a more serious note, I will be contemplating the finer things in life from the comfort of my new rocking chair. Thanks Great Grandma & Great Grandpa!
Thanks for all the birthday wishes from everyone. I love you all and can't wait to see you sometime soon!
