One Year Old!

Today Nathan turns ONE! A year has passed so quickly! Nathan has always been such a happy baby. Now at one year old Nathan loves to give hugs and kisses. He is already practicing to be 2, by knowing how to stomp his feet when things don't go his way. He is intrigued by Thomas' every move and loves to mimic him. He is a climber and learning to bite.... yikes! He's all finished with baby food and loves to eat hot dogs, chicken nuggets, green beans, carrots, black beans & rice, grilled cheese and fruit! He has slept through the night since he was 14 weeks old and he still takes daily naps. He learned to walk at 9 1/2 months old which has made life more interesting! Baby gates have become a permanent piece of furniture in our house. Nathan has his favorite lovey....his puppy. He uses it at bedtime along with sucking his thumb. At his one year checkup today he weighs in at a healthy 22 pounds and almost 31 inches tall. I am continuously amazed by how someone so small can bring so much joy to one house. So, happy birthday sweet, Nathan. We are excited to see what the year brings for you and our family. xoxo
