A whole Year has Passed!

Happy July!

When you are wee time goes by so slowly. School seems to be forever and so does summer holidays. Well we can go and throw that out the window! When you are a parent time flies. Most of the time faster than what you would like it to. This Past week July 16th O turned 1!!!!!

Hard to believe that it has been over a year since we rushed to the hospital to meet this daring little guy we have loved from the start and get to know more each day. He is trouble though, let me tell you. Adventure extroidanaire and definitely a good way to describe this curious little guy. He is always trying out new sounds and new ways to take things down off of heights he should not be at or ways to be up his sisters bum..because he loves her ohhhh so much!

He is currently getting his two top teeth in on the sides of his front top middle teeth. One is now through. We are lucky enough to say that he is a great sleeper most of the time. But when it comes to certain times when teething he is a little more needy than usual. He also will eat anything and everything. So vacuuming a couple times a week is a must. I really do not enjoy scavenger hunt diaper changes. Especially while pregnant lol. But really he is a great little eater and is trying new things every day. I miss those days with his sister.

We bought him a Motorcycle walk for his birthday that he can ride on and use to learn to walk. Sooo not too long from now I can probably assure you I will be writing a little blog post about that. Currently we are walking across hanging on to couches and standing freehand here and there..we love to climb and use go go gadget arms to reach things from heights you would not think he could reach.

We had a small dinner with my parents for O on his actual birthday. My parents came and helped us out while we had two baby appointments during out little munchkins nap time. We had a nice regular quiet dinner and had some cake and ice cream. Yesterday we had his bday party. We celebrate with our neighbours a couple close friends and family from both sides. It was nice to get everyone together  in one place. I made him a construction cake for his party and we had some decorations and balloons. Set up some pools and the water table for the kiddos and just had some yummy bbq food. We are thankful for all who came to celebrate the special day.

We had O's 1 year checkup today. He is doing really well. He now weighs 22 1/2 lb. and is 31.1 inches long. He is doing well all around according to our doctor. We do not go back until 15 months just for another shot. He had 3 today so he was not such a happy camper.

I will post pics later on and some news about the latest pregnancy announcement. As for now I have to comfort a cranky boy. Love the Brants xoxo
