It's me, HYZYD!

There's no denying that feeding babies is a messy business! I'm AMAZED of how much mess one little person can create! I TRY NOT TO WORRY ABOUT THE MESS and just enjoy these special moments with my baby. More cutie messy babies are found at Mommy Moments . Join us and let's have fun !

I wanted to keep the memory of my baby's first months fresh in my mind for years to come. I know that some of the mementos from this first year will be the things that my child is going to treasure when he grows up and has his own children! Here are some of Hyzyd's "firsts" with date. Yesterday, he was celebrating his 9 months birthday!
