ONE-YEARS-OLD!!!!!!

Listen up people….I’m now a ONE YEAR OLD!!!!! It is officially official- I am now a big boy!!!!! No more baby bottles, bibs, passies, onsies, or baby milk!!!!! I’ve been waiting my entire life for this to happen!  Let me tell you how much of a big boy I am: I weigh 23 lbs (79% percentile), 30 inches tall (58% percentile), AND my head is 18.5 inches around (75% percentile). Booooyeaaaaa.  Exact measurements of a  ballin’ big boy!  I can walk and run, shut doors, open the baby gate, climb stairs, put my shoes on (wrong foot usually), drink from a cup (but I spill), chase Nellie, chew on my toes, and I can find food in the pantry and bring it to mom.  Pretty gosh-darn exciting, isn’t it?


The Doc even told me I looked good! Don't you agree?

My birthday party was better than I could ever imagine.  All my friends and family came, we played, ate food, and I got to smash a cake and make a mess!   I’ve never been so messy in nice clothes before, and I’m sure mom won’t let it happen again.  People even brought me gifts! How crazy is that! I got TWO Radio Flyers (one from grandpa and monc, and one from Mimi), tons of toys, books, balls, a water & sand table, AND my first golf club!!!!! It was the most wonderfully fun day of my life!! Grandma and Papa came a few days later and we got to eat cake all over again!!!

She loves me!

I get my own personal cake!!

This is so much more fun than finger painting!

Uncle Rob got me a drum and musical toys that makes loud noises!

My favorite things continue to be taking naps with daddy, going to the YMCA pool, going to lunch with my girlfriends, playing outside with Mimi, and chasing Nellie.  A big thing will be happening soon- mom signed me up for Mothers-Day-Out.  I’m not sure what that means, other than Mom said I have to dress up every Tuesday and Thursday -I really don’t care for that.  But she did say that I’ll makes friends and get to finger paint.  So, I guess I’ll go.  Also Mimi told me every Wednesday we’re going to go to the library and listen to some person read me books.  She even got me a library card! #fancy.

In other big news, in August I’m taking my first airplane ride to someplace other than Tampa….we’re going to North Dakota!!! Mom and Grandma tell me stories about North Dakota all the time----and how we’re going to go to the lake, eat ice cream with Uncle Jim, and one day go to church camp just like mom and Aunt Ann did!!!

Ok Party People.  I hope you’ve enjoyed my 12 months of blog posts as much as I have.  I’m not sure if mom will let me post anymore.  Guess it depends on my behavior.  If you need to find me, just call mom, but if it’s a weekend, don’t even bother, I’ll be watching football with daddy.  Thanks for reading my blog!!

I’ll stay cute,

Luke


My first parade!!!
