Happy Birthday, Andy!

It is hard to believe that a year has gone by already. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was waddling around taking care of laboring women and being totally jealous as we waited for our little boy's arrival.

Andy has grown so much! At one year old, he:

• Weighs 21.8 pounds
• Is 28.5 inches tall
• Has 13 teeth (and two more coming in)
• Crawls speedily
  
• Walks not so speedily (I think he would like to skip to running, though)
• Climbs on everything
  
• Eats anything he can grab (including hair and lint, if Mommy's not looking)
• Says Hi
  
• Waves
• Hugs toys, and sometimes Mom and Dad
• Is still the cutest boy in the world!

We decided to celebrate Andy's first birthday with a family party. Our little house was wonderfully crowded, but I think the birthday boy (and everyone else) had a good time.

Someone didn't want to let go of his new toys, even for cake!

Yum!

Andy lets us know he is full by throwing away his leftovers. How kind.

And just a refresher as to why Andy is still the cutest boy in the world:

We love our fall baby!
