In the life of a toddler, 365 days make a big difference.
Here we are on the last day of the first decade of the new century and I just can’t help but reflect on the changes that have happened in the last twelve months…
So, just for the JOY of it, I spent a few hours walking down memory lane…
Wow, the Little Guy sure is changing (and my photographic skills are getting better too!)

Okay folks, now it’s YOUR turn! Lets spread some JOY!
I know it’s New Years Eve, so you might not have lots of spare time for blog hopping, but if there is anything that gave you JOY this year I’d love to read it…

Well viewing those photos sure was fun! He's certainly a cute little guy. Was wishing I could just reach through the screen and snuggle him up. I'm out of baby snuggles at our house…but I do still get 11 year old and 6 year old snuggles…and just so you know…they're awesome, too!
It's been fun getting to know a little bit about you through your blog. Can't wait to see what 2010 has in store for you…
Oh…and by the way…the backgrounds of your photos show beautiful home decorating skills…any chance you'd make a trip to Minnesota in say…early April…to help me pull together our new home? Just a thought.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your beautiful family!

I enjoyed looking at your pictures! He is such a handsome little guy! I know you are looking forward to all 2010 has to offer you and your beautiful family! Happy New Year!
I also enjoyed browsing through the year in photos! He is one cute guy!! Happy New Year!
You're right, a year makes a big difference in the life and look of a toddler. He is such a cutie! Those pictures certainly brought a smile to my face.
I blogged today not thinking about 'Just for the Joy of It', but I went ahead and linked about cause blogging really does bring me joy. I've loved getting to know other bloggers…like you!
Awesome pictures! Aren't you thankful to live in the age of digital photography? It sure is fun to chronicle both the baby steps and big ones…
I've enjoyed your blog – and look forward to reading more in 2010! May you have a Blessed New Year!
What a little darling! they change so fast and nothing demonstrates that more than looking back over the photos from the last year.
All the best in 2010 to you and your wonderful family!
He is super cute! Looks like you guys had a great year!
Look at that sweet boy! It's so fun (and sad, too) watching them change so quickly. Sometimes you don't realize it until you're looking through pictures.
Bless the people who developed cameras. They have a special place in my heart.
Have a wonderful new year with your precious family!
Such a precious family! Happy New Year to you!
Gorgeous pictures! Enjoy him!
Happy New Year!
Oh, look at your little guy grow! How fun. Thanks for sharing your wonderful photos.
Happy New Year!
He is adorable and just look at how much he's grown! It goes to fast.
I took a trip down memory lane in my "My Pictures" folder the other day. It's so true when they're that young, a year really makes a difference! I can't believe how much my two have changed in 12 months!
Your little guy is a cutie!

Wow, these are beautiful pics! But my favorite of all these is the one with the baby and the dog! I used to have a dog just like that, his name was Cocoa.
Hi! Visiting finally from SITS and what a sweet little fella you have there! What a wonderful time the holidays are when you have a little one to share them with!
