our boy is one!

So I am so far behind and have almost given up on my blog, but I had to post some pics of our little Crew for his 1st birthday. I really can't believe it has already been a year but at the same time, he feels like he has been in our family forever. I can't even explain how this little boy makes me feel. He has definitely been a challenge, but it is so worth it when he comes walking up into my arms. Here are a few thing he has been doing lately:

• walking (since about 11 months)
• he is not a huge talker, definitely more into moving, but he does say: mama, dada, more, and ba ba (bottle)
• claps
• waves
• when you say "dance", he shakes his head around and dances
• if you say "arms up", he will do it without seeing the action
• he loves to wrestle with Paul
• makes tiger and snake sounds
• he knows where is head, nose, eyes, mouth and ears are and will point them out when asked. (when he is in the right mood)
• he is obsessed with the dishwasher. He comes running every time he hears it open and tries to climb in. Needless to say, I get to load two dishes at a time then I have to close it.
  
  So here are a few pics of the handsome little guy.

snoozing on me at disneyworld

he loves his new big boy seat. We made the switch a little before a year (don't tell). When Paul's parents were here a couple of weeks ago, we went to Miami and crew threw up on the way. So we decided switch him over while the other seat was getting cleaned. He feels like a king.

he loves the park

he is so proud of himself that he can get on and off his car all by himself.
