My Last First

I could cry right now while I look at this picture. Time moves on so fast that we need to make sure we enjoy every second of it and make some everlasting memories.

Here are my three handsome men during their first birthday. They are all so different and unique. Joshua didn’t like his cake, Andrew was such a goof ball he ended up with his plate on top of his head and Daniel stuck his fist in his mouth to get every bit of frosting on his hand. 
All three are wearing the same outfit (purposely done) and are sitting on the same high chair

Daniel I am so grateful that you are part of our lives. You are my little snuggle bug. You have an amazing personality which is full of love and tenderness. You love to cuddle with everything that is dear to you. It could be your ball, your puppy, the cat or me, the thing is that you have to show your love to those things that make you happy.

You are a smart little baby. You watch your siblings and learn from them a lot. You love to dance to the songs of the Farmer in the dell and old McDonald. At 10 months you could do the actions for twinkle, twinkle little star, which is your favorite song.

You love to make silly faces and can even say a couple of words; what (which you repeat over and over), Wow, ni-nite (when is time to go to sleep), tar (when you want to sing twinkle, twinkle little star), tete for your bottle and mama (that will be me).

You have been the only one of your siblings to actually take naps on a schedule. I didn’t even have to teach you how to do it. You just knew what to do on your own.

You are such a mellow and well behaved little guy. You can just sit and admire the world going around you.

You can even walk a little with the help of one of your siblings.

                        You wear a size 24 months in clothes and size 3 shoes.

      Your favorite toy is the little hoop in your room

                                               Your favorite food is rice and chicken nuggets.

Your favorite dessert is ice cream

                   You love to be snuggled when you fall asleep

                               You LOVE baths; especially if you get to share the tub with your brothers.

 stats:

weight: 26.5 lbs.

height: 30 inches

     You are my little chunky monkey and that was your first birthday party theme.

 

 

  You celebrated your birthday surrounded by all the people who love you: us, grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles.

You weren’t quite sure what to do during present time, but that was ok because your cousins and siblings were there to do the hard work for you.

The cake surprised you a little, especially when daddy held you away from it and wouldn’t let you touch it.

 

you got your own "banana" cake

 

It took you a second to get to it, you had to taste it first, but then you realized how good it was and ate it in minutes. You loved it so much that you even wanted to eat the plate.
