1 year

How is it possible that he is 1 already?  On one hand it feels like yesterday I was pregnant with him but on the other, we can't imagine our family without him.  
Weight:  21 pounds 15 oz. (60th%)
Length:  29 1/2 inches (50th%)

He gave us the best birthday present EVER by sleeping through the night (for the first time in a year!!!) on February 14th and again on February 16th.  Even though I still woke up numerous times, out of habit, it was nice not to have to get out of bed!  

He is always on the go and rarely sits still.  So opposite from his sister who will sit and listen to book after book being read.  He likes chasing balls, playing trains, banging blocks...the louder and faster a toy goes, the better.  He really enjoys being outside and has started squealing and pointing to the swings every time we go to the park.  

There isn't a food we have given him that he hasn't liked/eaten.  It makes mealtimes so easy!  He eats a ton (definitely more than Sydney) but is really good about eating his fruits and veggies!  We switched him to whole milk around 11 months and he now drinks it 3xs a day.  Mealtimes tend to be a mess and we do multiple outfit changes a day but we're thankful to have a growing, healthy boy!

He's serious most of the time and can be hard to get a smile from but when he does smile/laugh, it melts your heart...you know its genuine.  Sydney has started making him belly laugh and it is so adorable to watch.  

He's walking holding onto objects/tables but hasn't stood on his own yet or taken any steps... and I'm ok with that!  He's a crazy fast crawler and is starting to climb up on everything so anything with a ledge/steps we need to watch him like a hawk.  


Can't believe you're already 1.  We love you!
