Last day as a baby


Can you believe I will be one tomorrow! I am very excited about this, so excited I should take an extra nap today in preparation for my nana coming to visit me.

I have really grown up these past few weeks. I am completely off bottles now and although I resisted for a few days I am ok with it now. I started whole milk two weeks ago and I really like to drink that so I give mommy permission to stop giving me breastmilk. I am very proud of my mommy for feeding me breastmilk every day for an entire year! I did have to add in formula at 10 months but not too much - I only used 1 small can of formula for my whole first year while at home! I think all that saved money should go towards toys for me - just a suggestion.

Tomorrow I am having a party with cupcakes and lasagna and presents and singing and dancing and anything else I can think up so I will be sure to update you on that tomorrow or Thursday. Until then!

Allison, congratulations on you're first year of motherhood (I think the parents should really get all the presents . . . the first year is the hardest on us).

Breastfeeding is hard work, yet another present you deserve!

Happy Birthday Dexter! You're the cutest baby I've never met.

Cupcakes + lasagna + magic bullet = toddler heartburn

I agree with Emily - surviving the first year is a major feat for the parents. The party should be for you, too. :-) Happy Birthday, Dexter!!!
