Whit Turned 1!

Whitter Bug is One Year Old! I can't even believe it. But he is. He had his first birthday. And it was pretty low key. But a ton of fun. Mostly for his brothers, who were definitely more excited than anyone. Seeing that Whit didn't really know what was going on anyway. But he did figure out that birthday cake is YUMMY! He got a cute little rocking horse. And LOVED the strawberry buttermilk cake we made. 

We cannot imagine life without Whit in our family. He is so much fun! He has a character all his own. He LOVES to play with his brothers. He LOVES to eat. And he LOVES feeling like a big boy and doing the things the big boys do. He likes to go downstairs and play with the big boys. He likes to carry around their footballs or little basketballs. He likes his naps. And he loves dirt and outside. He's been a pretty easy baby. He's never been the best sleeper, we'll let Drakey keep that victory. But he does pretty well. He is super content with anyone. People are always amazed that he is fine with pretty much anyone holding him. He loves to flirt and laugh and smile and jabber at people. And he LOVES attention. He has seven teeth. He started crawling at nine months, and was walking by 11 months. Whit  is a pretty big guy, compared to others his age. At his one year well visit he weighed 23 pounds, which was in the 54th percentile, and was 32 inches long, which was in the 97th percentile. He has just started giving big, open mouthed kisses, but reserves them only for special occasions. His Dad and brothers have worked very hard for the ones they have been given! Whit loves dogs. Porsche, our little six month old pup is his favorite! He gets so excited when Rett brings her in the house. And they get along great. Whit loves his blue soft blankie. And you can tell, just by being around him for a little while, what a happy guy he is. We sure love our little Whitter Bug!

The past year has flown by so incredibly fast. 2015 is going to be here before we know it! And we'll have an 8, 7, and 2 year old! We are so grateful for our healthy and happy boys!
