Coleson's 1st Birthday 3/12/12

Happy Birthday to our baby!

Coleston loves all kinds of bikes

and toys

and brooms!

For his birthday dinner I splurged (wink! wink!)
and bought rotisserie chicken.  Chicken is his absolute favorite dinner!
As you can tell, he couldn't control himself and dug right in!

He got to open his presents the next morning.  Daddy gave him some basketball cards.  He also got some sand toys and a lego wagon.
(Daddy got home late and Treydon had a baseball game)

He didn't get cake on his birthday so the next day we had brownies and icecream with all the toppings.
As you can tell, he decided that was ok!!!

Coleston has been such a fun baby.  He has just gone along with whatever is going on in our lives, from sports practices and games, to church callings, to getting woke up from a nap for a reason (or not!), to getting put down because another sibling needed loves.

He has always been a happy and smiley boy.  He loves to give hugs and pat your back and nuzzle his head into my shoulder when he is hungry. 
He loves to follow around his siblings and you will find him wherever they are, trying to master whatever they are doing. 
I love his determination.  He has recently learned to walk, without any of our help or coercing.  He has just done it on his own. 
 He has learned if he wants something he will point and whine until someone catches on and helps him.
He loves water - puddles, gutter, kitchen sink, and his favorite the bath tub!
He loves the swing, and sandpile, and dirt, and picking flowers!

He is our Loving Baby!
Love you!

What???! Your baby boy's 1 now?? Where did that year go, seriously??!? It seems like you just barely had him. Gosh, he's a cutie! My favorite pic is the one of him going for the chicken. :)
