Happy FIRST birthday, my sweet boy!! I can't believe it's been a full year, and that you are ONE! I will always remember you this year making that face with your crinkled up nose, and the ways you have surprised us with your physical achievements! These days, you are climbing up, climbing down (you have learned to put your legs down from the couch in order to get down to the floor). You also love your brothers' toys and you go through great lengths to get them. These days, your favorite items are your brother's pencil which you also like to draw on paper. You also like to play with cars and scoot them on the floor. Crawling remains your method of transportation, which is always so cute! You love to crawl into your brothers' room and wake them up. Speaking of brothers, you love to pat Josiah when he's feeling down. You also know how to lie down for a diaper change, which by the way - every diaper change involves a butt scratch from you. You are modern baby all the way! You love to self-feed with a pouch, not finger foods or soups, etc. but you like to put a pouch to your mouth and squeeze the contents out. You also love the phone and laptop. In fact, if you're quiet, we know you have found the phone and are scrolling through it or typing away on the laptop. You're so adorable! You're still very attached to mommy, though you do have bonding times with daddy at night when he's reading flap books with you. The boys love you and so do we! Happy 12 months, my baby boy!!
