Happy 1st Birthday Nolan


It seems like not that long ago we were driving this cute little guy home from the hospital last Christmas day in a blizzard, but it is true he is 1 today! He is the sweetest, happiest baby, and we can always count on Nolan to have a smile for us! He loves his big sister and wants to follow her and do everything she does. She too loves him, and she is extremely protective of him. She does hurt him sometimes, but most of the time she is trying to protect him from something. He loves to eat, and out eats his big sister every meal. It will not be long before he is as big as her. Things about Nolan:

  • Taking steps
  • Standing up on his own
  • Climbing the entire stair case
  • Bouncing on the little tramp at the gym
  • Plays chase and peek-a-boo
  • Blows kisses and gives kisses
  • has two teeth
  • loves to watch Mickey Mouse
  • tries to play everything with his sister
  • sleeps through the night just fine & takes two naps
  • drinks from a straw, but does not care for a sippy cup (yet)
  • puts everything he finds in his mouth
  • pushes all the buttons on the TV no matter how many times you move him, he always goes back
  • has learned how to flush the toilets and finds it hilarious
  • throws temper tantrums that are hilarious and last all of 3 seconds until he is over it and smiling again
  • can entertain himself very well, one of his favorite things to do is play with the toy kitchen
  • thinks the cold is funny. When we get him out of the car he laughs and shivers and does not seem to be bothered by the cold.
  • has the cutest cheesy smile
We are so lucky to be blessed with our sweet boy and we look forward to all the fun that he will bring through the next year.
