I'm 1!!! (And other fun things)

Our little boy is 1 already!!! How time flies.  The last year has been crazy, but totally amazing.  I am so thankful to God for giving us little Elijah.  It's amazing how much a baby changes in the first year of life!! From an 8 lb completely helpless and needy baby to learning to sit and crawl, to eating solid foods, to laughing and smiling, to walking and running, and now playing tag with mommy and daddy.  He also has started to pull away when I need to hold his hand while walking.  I love to look back at his pictures and just marvel at the change and growth!!

Here is a pic of him in the hospital

So little and adorable!! 

And here are some pics of his first birthday party!!

How much he has grown!!! We had a lot of fun at his party.  Thanks to our friends and family for helping to make it a success!!

Here are a few more pics of some recent activities...

Spaghetti Love!!! He definitely went RIGHT into the bathtub

So...he found my bag of potatoes...

We were decorating cupcakes, and all of the sudden it got quiet...this is what we found! 

 Enjoying his new chair from Ikea...his b-day present from Nana and Papa!

Coloring!!! (Didn't last too long...)

That's all for now!! Thank you to everyone that has been a part of his first year of life.  Excited to see what the second year has for us :)
