Patrick is ONE!






Patrick had his FIRST birthday on March 4!!  We celebrated by having lunch at Groucho's and dinner at Wade's...his two favorite places!!  Then we had a birthday party on Saturday, March 7.  Patrick was a little under the weather but he rallied through and actually enjoyed his cake.  The weather was perfect and he was able to enjoy his new gift...a red wagon which he adores!

I can't believe that he is already a year old...time flies!!  Here are is stats:
Currently weighing in at 24.0lbs (75% weight)
Height is 31" (80%)
Head Circumference is 18.75" (80%)

Patrick now eats EVERYTHING and ANYTHING!!  He is really enjoying eating all the foods we "big" people eat.  We no longer have bottles (except for one in the morning but it should be gone next week)!  Patrick is also now drinking real milk rather than formula...yay!!  This makes life alot more afordable!  We also threw away all his pacifiers...I am all about cold turkey...and the earlier you do it, the better.  It really wasn't a big deal for him at all!  

Patrick is such a big kid now! We are just working on that walking thing.  He is able to cruise the house by holding on to furniture or walls and he will stand all by himself.  Hopefully (or maybe not) he will take those first steps real soon!!

I hope to keep this blog updated more frequently now...I finally got a new computer which is making everything faster and easier to do!
