Blake at 1 year

Weight- 23 lb. 4 oz (60th percentile)
Length- 31 in. (80th percentile)
head- 18 40th percentile)

My first born baby is 1 year old. Blake is such a fun little guy! He loves all of his toys and often goes from toy to toy just playing. His favorite toys are musical instruments . He also likes his pushing toys. As soon as he starts walking/running he giggles and gets really excited. He cruises all around furniture and has been taking a few steps (his P.R. is 7!) for about a month now. It won't be long before he is really walking. I'm not sure I'm quite ready for that yet! I want him to stay a baby and a crawler for a little while longer. But, I guess it's not up to me:) Blake is very sweet and cuddly. He still likes to be cuddled after naps. He also gives lots of hugs and will give you a kiss if you ask for one. Blake is learning so much! He can say mama and dada, and woof woof. He can point to your nose, ears, toes and lips. He also knows bottle....that is probably his favorite. He L-O-V-E-S his bottle. I'm in the process of weening him from his bottle, but this probably won't be an easy one. Blake is a great eater. It can be hit or miss, but he pretty much eats anything that I give him. Some favorites are applesauce, macaroni and cheese, fruit grain bars, bananas and honey nut cheerios. Blake has 6 teeth; 4 on top and 2 on bottom. He is a very happy, easy going little boy. We love you sweet baby blue eyes....Happy Birthday!
