Our sweet Charlie boy is one today!

Charlie, you are such a perfect addition to our family! Though your start in this world was rough, you overcame the odds, and haven't looked back since!

At 1 you're a joy to be around! Generally happy and low key, you love anyone who will pay attention to you. You love your mama, screaming if I walk more than a few feet away.

You have an easygoing and determined personality. You'll work at figuring something out for a long time without getting frustrated.

You're still crawling, not yet {even close to} walking, but cruising and still getting into anything and everything.

You love to climb, to wrestle with your brother, and to put things in and out of buckets.

You're still a peanut. You weight about 19 lbs. and still wear 6-9 month clothes and size 2 or 3 shoes.

You still only have two teeth, but are working on at least four across the top! Other than teething issues, you're finally sleeping pretty well at night!

You love to eat! You especially love bananas (you can eat a whole one in a sitting), peas, yogurt, applesauce, bread, snacks, green beans, noodles and mama's milk. You tasted your first sips of whole milk today and liked it!

Today we celebrated your birthday by taking your brother to preschool and then hanging out together. This evening Mee Maw, Papa and Uncle Dave came over and we had a traditional first birthday dinner- Shepherd's Pie, peas and rolls... and of course pumpkin cupcakes, just like your brother had!

We are so thankful for you, sweet Charlie. I can't wait to see what great things God is going to do with your life!
