My sweet boy when I came to get hime from his crib on the morning of his 1st birthday! |
Those sweet chubby thighs and the way he loves his bottle reminds me that he's still just a baby : ) |

Love that sweet face |
Sissy was excited about his birthday too |
My first baseball glove from Uncle Tanner! |
Jeremy's cousins and their kids were in town and came over to celebrate |
This was his expression while we were singing to him...so funny |
What's this all about? |
Mmmmm...tasty! |
Ok, I'm over it...ready for a nap now! |
Our precious boy |

Present time! |
Wow, time really flies!! Seems like just yesterday I was bringing home my baby boy from the hospital and now he's one! We had two seperate parties on two different days with different family members that were in town. Although he did enjoy the cake and presents, I think he was over all the hype! He has really gotten mobile over these last couple of months. He crawls at turbo speeds and pulls up on everything possible. He catches himself standing along a lot and like to push things with wheels on them. I feel as if he'll be walking very soon. He is on whole milk now which he loves, but we're still working on the sippy cup. As far as eating, this kid eats EVERYTHING!!! I feel like half of the day is spent with him in his highchair being fed. I always say I'll just keep offering bites until he refuses them, but he rarely does!! I end up having to cut him off in fear that he will puke (which he has before!)!! He's not very picky and likes most everything. He totally skipped the baby food thing and eats only table food. I know for a fact he eats more than Izzy. It's so funny because I have to bribe her to eat just a few more bites and at the same time i'm cutting him off. He screams for his next bite, so we've been working hard on sign language. I want him to know screaming for food is not very polite : ) He's coming around with his sign language. As far as real talking goes, he says dada a lot. No mama yet, but he's experiementing with lots of different sounds. He claps all the time and loves to do "so big." He has 6 teeth now and I think he's working on a couple more. He's a great sleeper. He takes two naps a day. A morning nap around 10 and an afternoon around 3. Each one is about 1 1/2 hrs. He goes down for the night around 7:30 and will sleep till about 8. He's become such a boy lately, he loves to bang toys together, pound on tables and throw any toy that's in his way! He is still extremely smiley and so easy to get to laugh. He has the cutest belly laugh and is the most ticklish baby I've ever seen. What an awesome year we've had with our little man and we're excited to see what adventures his next year brings!
