On November 7 ,My little boy finally made it to his 1st birthday, surprisingly, i mean come on look at who the poor things parents are. :) Its been a fun, rewarding, exhausting, frustrating and fun year. Watching him grow up has been hard but i'm loving how he's getting a little more independent and doesn't need me 24/7 which is a nice break. He reached all the 'milestones' babies are 'supposedly' reach before their one, but he did it 2 months earlier than most babies. I'm so lucky...or cursed that he learns so quick. He has almost all the teeth he'll get for a while, doesn't walk anymore but tries to run everywhere. Is finally giving up his stubbornness and saying mom and dad, only when it benefits him of course. We made it a whole year without him getting sick once, which then this week poor boy been stuffed up and a slight cough. Which is my fault for even saying anything. but it is what it is. However, can i just say I LOVE that he is turned around face forward in the car now and has been the giving the go ahead on eating whatever he desires. LOVE IT!! His picture was in the paper and i thought that was cool, i just gotta remember to keep it. He went to the doctor and at one year he weighs 24 lbs (which he feels a lot heavier than that) and is 31 1/2 inches tall. He's growing up and I really am loving it, i'm sad but its just fun to watch him learn new stuff everyday.
Funny little tidbit about the birthday candle. As you can see he wasn't really too sure about the fire since he's always been told not to touch it. Well he stuck his finger into the cake covering his finger with frosting, and then he proceeded to put the candle out with that same finger. He was proud of himself and i'm glad it didn't burn him. It was pretty funny though. He seemed to love the frosting and wasn't too sure about the cake, all in all though it was just a hoot to watch him. Since ever few minutes he would just pull his funny face, thinking he was so proud of himself for making a mess and not getting into trouble about it.
I can't wait for the many years to come, they million more messes, hugs, smiles and giggles. I can't believe its possible to love such a small thing sooo much. He really is the center of our lives and we are truly blessed with our little 'bug'
