The Black Family: ONE

I am SOOO happy to say that this will be the last post of this kind because on October 30th Caleb turned One year old!

This post will include his 12 month stats and information along with some birthday party pictures and dish that occurred the weekend before his birthday.

First thing is first...

Length:30 inches (50-75%)

Weight: 22 pounds and 4 ounces (25-50%)

Clothes: 12 and 18 months, size 4ish shoes

Diapers: 4 and we LOVE the walmart brand diapers

Sleeping: morning and afternoon naps 1-2 hours and sleeps great at night but an early riser

Food: We are eating all kinds of table foods but becoming pretty picky. I think it's a texture thing because he will stick things in his mouth and spit them out. We are down to breast feeding once a day, one bottle in the morning, and milk or water with a splash of juice in a sippy cup the rest of the day. I thought he was going to be so easy getting off the bottle because for a week he didn't mind the sippy cup at all. Then he got sick and refused to drink anything all day except nurse his one time, so I gave in and let him have one bottle in the morning. Hopefully here in a few days/weeks (who knows) we will be able to drop that as well.

Activity: We are taking steps and standing on occasion but continues to prefer crawling. When he wants to walk he will walk. This momma isn't rushing anything. He LOVES his toys, balls, riding toys, and books. All of this new birthday presents are definitely getting their use.

Other Random Things: We have started some temper tantrums. My sweetest, most loving, cuddle man gets angry and screams and kicks his feet and won't move an inch when he is having a tantrum. He still has his sweet loving moments but the tantrums happen regularly as well. He continues to love his paci and we are now thinking about when we are going to be the paci Nazi's and take it away. Not anytime soon, but hopefully he won't be a toddler running around playing with a paci in his mouth.

All in all it has been a WONDERFUL first year and we are so happy to have Caleb in our lives.

Now onto Party!!
