One

Well.
We did it. We've managed to get MB to his first birthday. With all of his fingers and toes intact. And most of our sanity....
He's got 4 teeth, with a fifth one on it's way. He stands up without holding onto anything, (looks kind of like a meer cat when he does it.) He's going to walk soon. He's in the 95th% for height and 15% for weight. Skinny little string bean! We're thinking basketball....
His eyes are this really cool shade of hazel-grey. MM says they are just like his dad's eyes. Even the pediatrician was stumped about what color to call them.
He still has a sunny, laid back personality, even when he's teething. He can be a bit of a drama king if he's not getting what he wants, and he likes nothing better than to bang away on our computers or phones, already. Anything electronic seems to lure him in. I have visions of coming home and finding that he's dismantled the toaster someday. Probably soon.
The last year has been so much fun. So many changes, with both him, and everything else. But every change was positive, and has worked out for the better of our family. I'm at a really cool place in life, loving every minute of it, and I wouldn't change it for anything...

Awwww - he is just ADORABLE, but of course you know that!! Happy Birthday! One! So crazy!!
Your life and everything just changes so much when you have a kid, doesn't it? Your whole perspective and priorities is just so different. In a better way. Raising kids is hard but so awesome.

Happy birthday(belated)to your little boy. He is so adorable. I love seeing the world through the eyes of a little child.

It is awesome to be in a cool place in life like you are.
