June 28th - Jake's 1st Birthday and Dr's check up

Happy 1st Birthday to our special boy.

Mommie had a 4th of July theme. I hadn't had cake till my big day, but I loved it on the first try. All weekend long I would look up when people had cake and I would get a mouthful. Mommy and Daddy used cake to get me to walk for the first time without holding on to anything. I took 3 steps back and forth from Mommy to Daddy. Nana, Auntie and Cousin Austin watched it all and cheered.


Nana, Auntie Cath and cousin Austin flew in for his big birthday weekend.
We went to Dr. Scott's for my big check up. I am 22 pounds and 28.5 inches long. I am still have a large head - lots of brains but I am on the short side. No problem all the brains will make up for it. I have started eatting all the foods that Mommy and Daddy give me. I spit some stuff out because it feels weird. I love my new milk. No more forumla, whole milk for me. I am also not using a bottle. I like my sippy cup and done great holding it. Strawberries are my favorite food, I will eat it anytime I am given it.
June 30th we went to Dr. Scott for his one year check up. 4 shots were given a few tears and a scream and he was all set. He is in the 50% for weight 10% in height (up from 5%) and his head is 90%. It just means he is short, chuncky with a lot of brains. We have now gone from part formula to all whole milk. We also made the switch in less than a week from the bottle to a sippy cup. It is not fun how quickly they grow up.
