Happy First Birthday, Wyatt!

Today is Wyatt's first birthday!!! A year ago today, I gave birth to him in our bathtub! It was such an amazing birth; something I'll always treasure!

Here's the entries from my pregnancy blog leading up to his birth story:

The day before his birth entry.
The start of labor entry.
Wyatt's birth story.
Some of his first pictures.

I will try to get some pics of him today and add them later with my back-up digital camera.

Okay, now for his update:

He's walking fulltime now.
He climbs up onto the sofa and gets down by himself.
He climbs in and out of the bathtub.

He climbs into kid-sized chairs.

He climbs up on anything or anyone who's on the floor.

I'm just glad we don't live in a house with stairs, because he'd be all over that!

He loves banging two objects together or banging them on other things (walls, floors, heads, etc) to hear the sounds that come out.

He likes to put small things into other bigger things.

He still loves putting tiny things into his mouth, but gives them to you when you ask.

He shakes his head yes and no when asked questions (THAT is just so cute).

He signs 'nurse'.

He still nurses mostly for nourishment.

He loves veggies and fruits.

He loves his toes. He always grabs them and puts them in his mouth. If Jeremy tells him to 'eat your toes', he does it.

He still sometimes hums while nursing and even while sleeping.

He LOVES tools! He always finds his daddy's tools and plays with them for the longest time!

TEETH! His 8 teeth are all out... but, check this out... his 4 molar ALONG with his 4 canine teeth are all poking through!!! OMG! In the next couple of months, he'll have a full mouth of teeth!

I actually wanted to bring him to take pics at wallyworld but Jeremy's been bringing my car to work since his needs a new starter. So, that puts a major damper on my tentative plans. I wanted to do the same for Ursula on Friday.... esp. since my good camera isn't working properly due to Ursula dropping the other weekend :( I don't know, maybe I can open the camera up and see if there's anything I can actually fix... like something that's off somewhere... what would it hurt? I don't know... My back-up camera sucks, bigtime. I promise this, when my camera gets fixed, it will always be totally protected and out of reach of little hands! I hate being without it! Can't take videos either. Of course, I can always use my regular video camera, which I will.

Okay, I'll publish this for now... I'll be returning to this entry though, to put in pics from today and adding anything else that I remember.
