Anderson's Birthday & STATS



Our sweet Anderson man is a VERY active little one year old. Here are some things I want to remember about my Mr. Happy:
- Loves whole milk and no longer has a bottle
- Prefers finger foods... peas, cheese, broccoli, banana... the list could go on forever. The boy is already eating us out of house and home! All he wants to do is PLAY PLAY PLAY and EAT EAT EAT!!
- Still only has 7 teeth but is teething majorly!
- Loves to say Mama, Dada, duck, and that
- LOVES playing with his sister especially in the pop up tunnel. They also love playing outside together. Anderson's trying to teach Karoline not to be afraid to get a little dirty.
- Loves to play with daddy... especially if they are wrestling!
- Walks full time now... he is SO fast. He has to keep up with Karoline.
- Still take two naps and goes to bed at 7:45pm and wakes up around 8:30am... He loves to sleep! Still sleeps in a sleep sack & his "special shoes". He will have to wear his shoes for another month or so.
- Anderson is the most lovable little boy! It is so easy to put a smile on his face and he LOVES kisses and hugs.

STATS
Weight: 20 lbs. 5 oz.- 15% (Karoline was 24 lbs. 5 oz.)
Height: 30.5 inches- 74%
Head: 17.7 inches- 16%

Anderson's birthday party is on Saturday so on his birthday we just made cupcakes. Karoline helped me put on the icing. This was the first time I have allowed Karoline to be a cook in the kitchen. I am a lot like Kate on Jon & Kate +8! I HATE a MESS and so this was a big step for me. Luckly Karoline does not like too much of a mess either so she did great!




The sweetest smile...

Karoline can't stand not being in a picture so she came in to crash our photo shoot. I didn't mind!


Anderson LOVES to play outside... he is really wanting to figure out how to climb the climbing wall on the swing set.

Anderson's A... He had no clue what to think of it but once he tasted the icing he was all for it. They were SO good.

Beth, I just LOVE these new pictures. We've had lots going on recently, and I haven't gotten a chance to blog surf, so I'm catching up. Anderson is SO precious in his red chair...he is growing and changing so much! I can't wait to see more pics! And, of course, Ms. Karoline is beautiful as always too....:)
