A One Year Old!
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007Wow - it seems like yesterday we just found out I was pregnant and now we have a precious, fun one year old little boy! Times does fly by. Jake is amazing - I know, I know, I say this every time! But, he really is so good to us. He started walking on his own at about 10 months but really took off walking well at 11 months. Since then we have just been trying to keep up. He loves carrying things around the house and exploring everywhere. He is saying mama, dada, baba for bye, bo for book, ha for hi and ug for hug. He can also gives kisses by saying mmmm against your cheek. It is slobbery but wonderful! He now weighs 21 pounds and is 29 1/2 inches long. We went on a plane ride in July to Mass. to visit John’s family and spend some time on the beach - Jake did great and ate some sand. We also have spent some time at the lake - Jake usually does not go out on the boat, but when he does he really enjoys the wind in his face when we go fast. He has started to dance when music plays and likes to jump on our bed. All in all, it has been the best year of my life - I could not have imaged having this little boy in our lives would be so rewarding and so much fun!!! We are truly blessed. Thanks for keeping up with Jake and our family!!! Don’t forget to check out the pictures at westsbabyblog.com/pictures.
