At Benjamin's 1 year checkup he weighed in at 22lbs-13oz (50th percentile) and measured 31.5" (95th percentile) in height. That means our little boy has gained 13lbs-13oz in 1 year and grew 9.5"! He has also learned to stand on his own (when he's not thinking about it), open and shut doors (as shown by the next post), feed himself with a spoon (with 'guidance' from mom), mastered the signing of the word "more"...and most importantly he finally does a 'proper' crawl :) There has been no new teeth in 3.5 months so he currently still has 6 although every fussy day/drooly day/non-napping day for the past 3 months has been blamed on teeth! He also LOVES to play ball with dad and drive his little cars around the house (going 'vroom' as he does it). However, his all time favorite activity is still mimicking actions/sounds that we do - especially if it makes us laugh.
The following pictures are a comparison of how our boy has changed (and grown!!) this past year. What the pictures aren't able to show - is that the current day picture took a lot more 'coaxing' (cheerios) to get him to remain in the chair long enough for a picture :)
And you can't forget about his styling hair...(this was him at 3 months). Sigh, I do miss his mohawk.
