From the stress of having strangers in my home, keeping it clean, and worrying about a birthday cake, we had a pretty low-key celebration this year. If you remember Porter's shin-dig for his 1st, (click here) it was nothing like that. We didn't even buy him gifts. We had some hand-me-down from a cousin that were put into a box that he opened. I threw the cake together that morning, sunday because the dancers were supposed to be gone, and it was a good day for a family to get together for a BBQ-our favorite thing. We had our families all here and ate well and played well. We sang, cut the cake, and opened presents. Pretty much a perfect day. I love my family!
At one year you are:
21.5 lbs
38 in.
- you are so busy! I follow you around most days and pick up what you've scattered around the house.
- you have the highest pitched scream I've ever heard
- you love to copy whatever Porter does
- you beg to be held all day long, and scream and cry if you don't get your way
- you are super independent and won't let us feed you anything you can't eat by yourself
- you are starting to run, and climb on EVERYTHING!
- have the cutest smile that melts my heart
- still let me cuddle with you and sing to you at bedtime.
- you go down to sleep easily and have learned to fall asleep on your own
- have 8 teeth
- love to be outside
