Will turns ONE!

It's hard to believe our baby is ONE. We had a sweet little party for him yesterday (pics of that to come soon), but I wanted to document a bit of what he's up to these days (and mom, give you a few pics of the birthday boy). He continues to be super happy, and super laid back...in fact so laid back that he's making us work ;). The physical therapy seems to be really helping. No official crawling yet, but he's scootin backwards, and rocking back and forth on all fours. He's also getting more solid on his feet, but is still working on getting from standing to sitting and vice versa. We had his 12 month appointment today, and found out that he's actually lost 10 ounces since his 9 month check-up. I was quite concerned, but left the doctors office with a good game plan for getting more calories in him over the next month (dinner tonight include oatmeal mixed with half and half, a bit of ice cream, along with his veggies and a few bites of beef spaghetti). His sensitivity to food textures seems to be getting in the way of him eating enough, so we'll be stepping up the OT game as well.

He has started talking more lately - "da" for dog, and dada are his first official words. He has 5 or 6 teeth (still can't tell if that last one has cut through yet). He has no problem getting dirty, but doesn't always loved getting cleaned up (see below).

Will, we love you so much - we're the luckiest family in the world to have you in it.

Yogurt in the hair was a good look.

Yup, I'm a mess.

Love that sweet face.
