My baby is 1!

I know I'm a little late with this post, but life gets busy and this blogging thing can suck up a lot of time.... and well, sometimes going to bed just sounds better than getting on the computer!
Anyway, Holden officially turned 1 last Wednesday and we had his party the previous Sunday. It is truly amazing to me that it has already been a whole year since we were introduced to our baby boy.













Mommy put the cake a little too close and I grabbed a finger full!













The blue evidence is on his chin, but now he's dumbfounded at everyone staring at him and singing... as well as the flame of fire... hmmm.













On his new Lightening McQueen ride.


















Macy needed much more coaxing at this cake stuff than Holden, but I guess he's had more opportunities to practice than she did. He was practically dancing in his chair before I even gave him his cake, he loved diving right in!
Seriously, could he look any more innocent?













In heaven!!













Straight to the bathtub we went!

He is such a sweet, cuddly little guy, but is already starting to show an ornery side. He is the biggest momma's boy and starts to cry if mommy leaves his sight for even a second. Poor aunt Kathy is determined to be able to hold him without him crying even if bribery is necessary! This is all new to me as Macy was never much of a clingy child, but mommy doesn't mind.

He isn't walking just yet, but is doing everything else and getting into new things every day... such as unrolling the roll of toilet paper and splashing in the dog's water bowl, fun! He also likes to throw food down on the floor and watch the dog eat it. I figure that's a win/win.

At his 1 year check up he weighed in at 20lbs. 4oz. which I think they said was around the 14th percentile and he was 28.75" long. So.... he's growing, but he's still our little guy!
