When Babies Grow Up....

Wow! In less than 45 days, our first born BABY will be turning 1! We cannot believe how that time flew! So many people told me that before he was born, and it is so true. He is the most incredible baby in the world! I balled when he was born....and I could start crying right now. He is just so amazing. From my pregnancy, and delivery, to his health, and development, God has TOTALLY showed us His hand on that little guy's life. As he approaches his 11 month mark, he is JUST about walking. He will stand and shake....but then fall, and then man does he cruise on those hands and knees! Aunt Summer (sjophotography) said that last week he took a step while he was in Cousin Carson's room! I think between home, Grandma's, and Cousin Carson's, those are his favorite places in the world. These boys are the best of friends! He is such a big boy! He has 8 teeth, and as I do thank God for them....it was rough having them come in. From drool, to fever's, to diaper rash, it was no fun. Thank God he loves the water, because we spent many days in the tub while it healed. His favorite words right now are "da da da" and "HHiiii" (I wish I could share with you the sweet voice he says hi in, too cute!) My husband says babies say the first word of the one they love more...I beg to differ! Today while he was at Grandma's she said he was sad when Grandpa left the room, and screamed with excitement when he came back! Oh I just love him! He is pretty independant, which is fine for a while, but he loves opening and closing doors, and he is just getting in to everything. He keeps me on my toes, but I love to watch him grow.

So, here we are approaching his birthday! If you haven't got an invite yet, they are on their way! August 8th 2008-What a day that will be!

We love watching you grow ~Love Mommy and Daddy
