Wow, do we really have a one year old?

Today is Jack's first birthday, he's been spending most of it sleeping because last night we kept him out SO LATE celebrating...or something like that. We took him to his first rodeo and it was awesome. Jack loved it. He loves animals, so it was fun for him to see so many :) Anyway, We love our one-year-old. Its hard to believe he's been a part of our lives for a whole year already, time is flying!

Since John had to work most of today, we're having Cake and Gifts tomorrow afternoon. I hope Jack doesn't mind too much :)

I had to give Jack a bath in the kitchen sick yesterday due to a couple of unfortunate events...which because with a diaper rash....i'll let your imagination decide what happened :)

Here's a little bit of Info about Jack at age 1

-He walks, well he steps. He takes steps, sometimes its just one of two but sometimes its 8 or 9, his favorite time to walk is when he thinks nobody is watching.

-He sleeps through the night, from 7 pm- 6 am. He's like clockwork, even though the sun is coming up later and later, he still has to wake up at 6.

-He has discovered the toilet and the garbage can (gross). I keep trying to teach him that he doesn't need to play in the kitchen garbage (the other day he tried to eat egg shells...) but i might have to resort to just moving it outside....out of reach

-He LOVES animals. He loves animal noises. He likes when we read him animal books and make all the noises to go along with them. I think it might be his favorite thing :)
-He won't watch movies for more than....5 minutes maybe...they just aren't that exciting to him i guess
-His favorite foods are eggs, banana's, gram crackers, and carrots with spinach.

-Has 2 teeth. Has had 2 teeth since he was 9 months old and doesn't show signs of getting more... i hope someday he does

-Jack loves walks (still) and bike rides (still) and being outside (still) and taking baths (still)

-Not sure how much he weighs or his height but we'll get all that info in a couple weeks at his Dr's appointment

-He loves to ride his rocking horse

-He loves playing at other people's houses and has no problem with me leaving him...he's not very attached i guess....very independent, that's what my neighbor calls it, i on the other hand, can't stand to be away from him.

-He is officially finished nursing...as of about a week now

-Still scoots around, doesn't crawl.

-Says mama and dada for everything, but also when he's talking to us, so it makes us feel special :)

-Loves to be rough housed

-Won't hold still...ever really...but especially when we're trying to change his diapers

-Cuddles sometimes now....(which we love) but only when he's really tired

I could go on and on about all the things we love and enjoy about our little Jack man but i'll spare the rest of you :) He makes us so happy, tomorrow i'll post pictures of his birthday celebration!
