1 YEAR old!

Well, here I am, writing my last monthly post for Carson's first year.  It really is bittersweet for this Mama.  I am so thrilled to see whatever new thing he has discovered each day, but at the same time, it makes me a little sad he just isn't a tiny baby anymore.  The joy this little boy has brought to our lives is above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined.  Being his Mother is the biggest blessing I will ever be given.

What you have been up to this month:
1.  You took your first steps about a week before your birthday.  And you were SO excited about it!
2.  You are eating almost all table food.  We only eat baby food on rare occasions if we are out and about (mostly for convienence). And we just about have you transitioned on to Whole Milk (Mommy is super excited about this!)
3. Your new favorite thing to do is shake your head no (OH BOY!). 
4.  You love the water!  You had a water slide at your first birthday party and you  had a blast!  You adore the pool too :)
5. At your 12 month check up you weighed 21 lbs 9 oz (29th percentile), and are 30" tall (54th percentile).

We did a cake smash photo shoot the week before your birthday, and I had so much fun watching you dig into your cake!  Happy Birthday sweet boy!  We love you so very much!
