The little guy turned one year old recently. He's a keeper, let me tell you why: He is the EASIEST baby ever. Although he has a temper sometimes, when things don't go his way, he's pretty chill.

He loves to explore the house quietly. Which, can lead to dangerous feats like the time I found him on top of the dresser, or the countless other times that I have found him splashing in the toilet or climbing upstairs. He has already mastered the double leg take down. Do you even want to know how it feels to make dinner while my baby is attached to both of my legs trying to take me down?? I didn't think so. He has also proved himself to be a capable wrestler when rough housing with his older brother.

He takes long naps because he knows his mommy likes to work on projects during that time. Yeah, he's polite like that. He can say: Mom Dad Eye Nose Mouth He dances. This seriously makes my day. He even tries to match rhythm. He claps and bounces, he squats and tries to jump to the beat.

He makes kissy sounds and clicks and clicks his tongue.

He only weighs 21 pounds, so he's the light weight amongst my kids, but he can hold his own. He's average in height and head circumference. He's got these huge blue eyes and such a cute little squishy face. I love how he snuggles with me when he is tired. I love watching him try to walk. (He can take several steps in a row but isn't 100% walking yet.) He's smart, I can tell. He just got tubes in his ears, so hopefully the ear infections decrease. He likes to point at my facial features and gouge out my eyes. And, because our party was lame in Joshua's humble opinion, we will have another one with the family in AZ. We didn't have streamers or hats (which was upsetting to a four year old, and we didn't play any games--he wanted us all to act like babies and invite the other babies to come). We LOVE LOVE LOVE you Lukey Bear!!! Happy Birthday!
