Oh baby boy, I can hardly believe it's true - 12 months! We've spent an entire year together, and what a year it has been! I find myself trying so hard to remember those first few days/weeks together and it's all such a blur, I wish I could bottle up every moment with you and relive it all from time to time! Every month brings new experiences! You're growing and learning so much! This past month has been no exception. Your little personality shines! You are without question a stubborn little one, but you are also so full of happiness and laughter!! Thank you for making me a mama. These past 12 months have been the best of my life!

Drinks from a straw
Already had three colds this fall/water - boo!
Constantly trying to climb up everything
His favorite activity is making a mess by pulling things out of drawers, containers, baskets, cupboards, etc.!
He is what is referred to as a childhood breath holder - this past month he held his breath so long he turned blue and passed out. Scariest moment of mama's life!!!
He gives the best hugs! (of all the things he's ever done, this is right at the top of my favorites list!)
