It's been a fast year...

Wow.  This past year has gone by so quickly.  It is so hard to believe that in one short year Silas went from this

to this

He was so tiny when he was born.  Only 4lbs. 8oz.  I was almost scared to hold him.  He's still small compared to other 1-year-olds but I often forget because he has grown so much.

Silas had a great birthday.  He was lucky enough to get cake 3 times and he just loved it.  I forget if it was Caleb or Sophie but one of them told me that Silas uses his 'chocolate senses' to find missing chocolate.  He would eat chocolate all day if he could.

Silas isn't walking yet but he is crawling, walking along furniture, standing, climbing up and down stairs, saying no and all done and signing milk and more.  He knows all of the words that he thinks are the most important.

I still can't believe that my baby boy is 1.  I guess he's not a baby anymore-he's a toddler.  A busy, happy toddler who loves to climb, splash in the water and play with blocks.  

A toddler who is still happiest when he's with his mama.  ♥
