Somehow He's 1

My boy. A little over a year ago you weren't here yet, and I was SOOO excited. But I was also a little worried, because I couldn't believe I could love another one as much as I did Paige. I worried I'd have a favorite, and I really didn't want that. But as soon as you got here I knew those things were not going to happen. You were another angel baby from the start. I nursed you right away, and you ate for 45 minutes straight. Well on your way to fatness. And greatness.

I never did figure out which of you was easier as a baby. You were both so laid back, but just different. You definitely had the worst temper early on, (sorry 'bout that) but it lasted only a few seconds every time. You're so cuddly and sweet, and you follow me all over the house, SO mad if I leave you behind. I love it.

You have such a great personality, like your sister. We could see early on that you were going to be funny too. Especially lately you've been cracking everyone up, with your wild screaming and laughing at your own "jokes", your dancing, and your new Stevie Wonder head swinging thing.

You're very smart, I love watching you watch us closely all the time. You copy us, and try to do things like put movies in the dvd player, or hammer the walls after you see us hang up pictures.

I especially love you and Paige together. She makes you laugh SO hard. She also makes you cry sometimes. But it's because she loves you, she can't help but tackle you to the ground and headbutt you in the stomach.

I'm so sad you're a year old. You're right between baby and toddler. I'm seriously kind of devastated. But also excited to see how much fun you are at Paige's age. And every age after that. Just please keep cuddling me.

We love you SO much. Happy Birthday sweetest boy on earth.
