1 yr OLD!!

My little baby is 1 yr old today!

He is the greatest blessing in our lives and we love him so much! i can't believe 1 yr has gone by! I still remember heading to the hospital at 8 am knowing he was on his way here. :) He was born at 5:26 pm and weighed 7lb 9oz/20 inches long! here is all the things he's accomplished since.

He loves to smile and laugh
He loves peek a boo!
He has 4 teeth and 2 more on the way
His hair is getting more and more blonde
He loves to hide his toys in the speakers and get them out later
He loves anything with a hinge, or making noise
HE ABSOLUTELY LOVES ANIMALS
HE loves to drive the car ;)
He LOVES to be outside, go for walks or just crawl around outside
He has just learned to sleep all the way through the night
He is a super fast crawler, and cruises along furniture
He can take 1-2 steps on his own
He loves emptying all the cupboards and drawers
He loves taking baths or showers
He loves swimming... anything with water he loves
He can brush his teeth on his own
He can say mom, Dad, and no, bye, and hi/hey, he sounds like he says other words and mimicks me and j.D. but we arent' sure if he truly knows what he's saying
Loves to yell at people outside
He loves to play with other kids!!! he could care less about mom or dad when other kids are around.
loves to hold mom's picture of her in her wedding dress
Communicates otherwise really well in letting us know he's tired, hungry, messy or needs attention.
Eats a lot of different things but TRULY recognizes a popsicle or ice cream when its around. :)
loves to tear up paper
loves unstocking the food storage
Last but not least, HE LOVES TALKING ON THE PHONE!!! lol

We love you Dawson and hope you have the best day ever! Happy Birthday little man!
