He's 1!!!!

It's hard to believe it's been a whole year! Last Christmas I couldn't wait for him to get here. Now He's walking. He's so much fun right now. He's so much more interactive. He has said his first word. DUCK.  He's so happy in the morning. He's over loaded with toys since Christmas and his birthday are so close. He jabbers a lot these days. Sometimes we wonder if he is singing. We started meats a month ago and just switched to cows milk. Now to try peanut butter and honey. He has six teeth. We need to get him in for his 12 month check up then we'll know how much he weighs. Everywhere we go he gets the attention of someone and they always come up to talk to him.

We had  a fairly simple birthday party. Cupcakes and ice cream. A few friends and some family and two computers. We are so grateful for Skype. Nautica, Grandma and Grandpa Thompson were able to join the festivities this way. We sang happy birthday to him then Chris helped him blow out his candle. He's a rather cautious little fella. He didn't go crazy on the cupcake. Chris helped him get started. He really didn't make too big of a mess! He really liked all of his presents!

Getting read for his party.

Just a few of the nick names we have for him.
