1 year old!

What a week! The day before his birthday, he started taking steps!! He loved it, and laughed each time we had him walk to one of us. We don't think it will be much longer before he will officially be walking on his own! Wednesday (his b-day) we had Kyle's family over for dinner and I made him a cake. He likes frosting, but never really got into the cake. Thursday we had his doctor's appointment. The doctor showed me his front four top teeth all ready to come through...but haven't...darn teeth! Friday Bo had pictures done, complete with cake and balloons. He is such the little poser. And Sunday was the big party! 50 people came to help celebrate! Here are some pics:

Happy Birthday Bo!

It seems like yesterday you were 6lb 7oz baby boy (with lots of dark hair!) that surprised us all by coming into the world 3 1/2 weeks early.

Happy Birthday Little Man. You are one loved little boy.

Milestones

Bo had a big month for milestones. At the beginning of the month, he started waving hi and bye. He LOVES to wave. He waves at us, the pets, his toys, daycare, almost anyone (unless he's being shy).

We have also been teaching him sign language. We've been doing several different ones for about 4 or 5 months now - mama, dada, more, please, kitty, dog, light, all done, plus a few more. On Thursday, he started signing dog. We are so excited! It just makes me beam.

On Friday, Kyle was holding his waist behind him and Bo was perfectly stable - usually he's trying to bounce or jump - so Kyle let go. Bo stood there for a couple of seconds and then took a couple of steps before falling down. I missed it so we've been trying to get him to do it again but with no luck. I don't think it will be too long now!

And finally yesterday, I was at small group and our leaders' living room has three stairs that go up to the kitchen. Bo figured the stairs out in no time. Now I just have to teach him to go down the stairs....

Bo was 11 months old yesterday:

Warm Weather

We enjoyed a 75-degree day on Thursday so I got a little carried away and broke out some overall shorts for Bo before we headed out on our walk.
