His name is Cody, he's five years old and all boy! Whether he's following Sheila around the house or helping Pop in the yard, Cody is the center of attention weekends when he often stays with us.


Yes, he's a redhead! With a redhead's temper, a redhead's reckless abandon.

Cody on his fourth birthday.


Having a birthday just before Christmas can confuse lots of people, but Cody and Santa are never confused.

A whole bottle of sunscreen (SPF45) is necessary for an hour in the sun. He'll never tan . . but someday his freckles may all growth together and make him a shade darker.


Ready for bed, Cody is quiet . . . very unusual! What's he up to?

And my all time favorite, Cody at two, relaxing on the deck on a hot summer day.
