Happy Birthday!

Ok, so life with two kids is exhausting.  My heart is so full, though.  Andrew has definitely experienced 2nd child syndrome.  As you can see, the last update I did was over 8 months ago!

Well, this past Tuesday our baby boy turned 1!

He currently has 8 teeth, four on the top and four on the bottom!

He can say dada, mama, hi, and hello.  He waves bye and blows kisses.

He sleeps through the night and takes about two naps a day.

His favorite things are taking a bath and playing with his older sister.  Man, you should see him dart across the room as soon as he hears the water turn on!

His favorite foods are ham and yogurt.  He shows us he's done by throwing all of his food on the floor, and he hates to wear bibs! (Probably because he wants a bath!)

He's not yet walking, but he's cruising and gets into everything.  One of his nicknames is "Andrew the Destruct-or!"  No joke, you should see how fast a tidy basement can be covered with toys.  He's even pulled all of Bri's clothes from her drawers.

He currently weighs 22 pounds, 7 ounces.  He hasn't had his 12 month check up yet, so I'm not sure on the length (and I forgot to check when I had him at my office this week).

And we're still breastfeeding! I made it to 12 months breastfeeding!  I had to supplement more with him than with big sister, but ultimately, he's had breast milk every day of his life.  I'm pretty darn proud of that.  Now to wean from the pump!

I can't wait to see what this next year has in store.
