Birthday Boy

Merrill turned one year old on Sunday. I can't believe it has already been a year. Time really does fly by. We had a birthday party for him on Saturday. I think he had a lot of fun. Here are some pictures of the day.....

Here are Merrill's One Year Old Stats:
  • 22.2 lbs
  • 29 Inches tall
  • He can stand all by himself
  • He takes up to 5 steps on his own
  • He drinks whole milk
  • He knows where his belly button, nose, ears, eyes, feet, and toes are
  • He says "Dada", "Ma", "Ba"=ball, "nana"=banana, "Dow"=dog/cat
  • He can roll his tongue
  • His favorite foods are bananas and kiwi
  • He LOVES his baths
  • He likes to spend time playing with Leverden, the mangy stray cat that comes around our deck everyday (don't worry, it's through the glass. I don't let him actually touch it.)
Merrill makes our lives so much fun. We love him so much and we feel very blessed to be his parents. Happy Birthday Merrill!!!

I loved reading over his stats. I'm trying to imagine him saying those words, but it's hard to do considering that he could only make a teradactyl scream last time I saw him. He looks so grown up!
