Oh my goodness I can't believe that my baby is already a year old. Time sure does fly when you are having fun. It really seems like yesterday that I was going to the hospital to have him. I loved when he was a tiny baby and would just let me snuggle him all day and we could nap together. But I am really loving seeing him grow into a little boy, although I do miss the sweet snuggles all day long!
We went to GA to celebrate James' birthday. I wanted the great grandparents to be able to be at the party, so it was perfect for us to celebrate there. On the 22nd we were able to go to the Braves game and we had great seats. So James went to 3 baseball games before his first birthday! He was so cute at the game, just chilling out watching everything around him.
For his actual birthday on the 23rd we didn't really do anything special. We did get him a cupcake to eat though. We needed an oil change so we did take a trip up to our favorite dealership in Roswell. So he got to see some friends that day.
We had James' party on the 25th at my parents house. We had around 36 people there. I was surprised that James was so happy around everyone, since he is used to it just being the 3 of us all the time. He really didn't want to eat the cake. Which didn't surprise me, cause he didn't want to for his pictures the day before either. It just meant he was very easy to clean up! He got so many gifts! Lots of books, blocks, and little people toys. My grandmother Mane and grandfather Hal gave him a rocking chair that has been in our family since 1949. She had it recovered and James climbed right into it!
James had his check up today and he is 21.25lbs, 30 inches long, and his head is 18.5cm. He is in the 50% for head and height, and 25% for weight. The doctor is pleased with his growth and said he is perfect! He only had to get two shots and only cried for a minute.
This past year has flown by and I would give anything to have time slow down. I am doing my best to cherish every minute with my baby. I am so blessed to be his mommy!
