J and M + j + s: Happy First Birthday!!!!

We can't believe our baby is one!! It has been such an exciting year and it has just flown by. Josh's one year checkup is not until next week, so we won't have any stats until then. He certainly has been learning and developing a lot this month! Josh has gotten much more sophisticated in his playing with toys. He can put pegs into holes, and really likes putting small toys into boxes or baskets. He also started walking some on his own! He is still much faster at crawling, so still uses that as his primary mode of transportation. But he stands on his own for long periods of time to play with toys and will walk between two things that he wants to play with.

Since Josh's birthday party is not for another week, we wanted to do something to celebrate his birthday yesterday. We got pizza and fries from continental pizza (seemed like a good tradition to start) and I made him some zucchini bread as muffins instead of cake (we wanted his first cake + icing experience to be at his party). My parents and Heather came over to wish him a happy birthday and have some dessert.

Enjoy some cute pictures of our one year old!
