Look at this handsome kid! I'm so happy that he made it to this big milestone. When I think about Reed's first year, there are a few differences that stand out between him and my other babies. His birth and delivery we're completely dramatic and unexpected. His first few months were a little miserable (he's my only baby that cried all the time and wanted to be held constantly). He also has been a total stinker about traveling. He hates being strapped into the carseat and refuses to sleep while we're driving. On the bright side, though, he has had a very healthy first year. No sicknesses or injuries that I can remember. He is a great sleeper and a hearty eater. The boy LOVES food and his stomach seems to be a bottomless pit! He has the absolute best facial expressions - a hilarious stink face when he's angry and a smile full of dimples when he laughs. And he laughs often! Right now he is very proud to be learning to walk. He struts around panting and squeeling and making sure that everyone notices what a great job he's doing. Reed has definately added something to our house since he was born...love, love, love!
So, we had a little party for him and invited the neighbors. Grandma Gordon also happened to be in town (lucky kid)! He had a big fat piece of cake and opened a few presents. Then played with the bags and boxes for the remainder of the evening. Love that baby. Happy birthday Reed!
Wow, didn't you JUST have him?? I can't believe he's one and starting to walk. I still think Liam is your baby. I guess that's what happens when I don't see you any more:( Happy birthday baby Reed! We miss you guys and can NOT wait to see you next month! Mads asks all the time when is Hanna coming.
