One Year Check Up!

Spencer had his one year old check up today! Boy, I know he felt like a pin cushion. He had to get 4 shots and a finger prick to check to see if his iron was still low. Thankfully, it was not! Today, he weighted 25 pounds and 12 ounces, which is no longer in the 90th percentile, but it is somewhere between 75-90%. His height was 30.5 inches, which was in the 75% and still his head was in the 95% at 19 inches. Dr. Rainey was pleased to see that his weight is slowing down a little bit and his height is catching up with him! And now that he is walking, he will really start to thin out, which is kinda sad because I love all of this rolls. Anyway, he also informed me that I need to ween him from his bottles and formula and transition to whole milk and sippycups. I proceeded to ask him, "How in the ---- was I supposed to do that?" but maybe not in those words but it is what I was thinking. Spencer loves his bottles and it is going to be awful trying to get him to stop taking them first thing in the morning and before he goes to bed but we will tackle it slowly. I think we will start with transitioning him over to whole milk and then once he is taking that slowly get rid of the bottle. Please pray for us as we tackle this endeavor!

We Have a Walker!

Spencer has officially entered the world of the walking! One day he just decided to go for it. He still prefers crawling as his main means of transportation but when prompted by Josh or myself he will walk. Yesterday, he took 10-12 steps around the kitchen. I can't believe my little man is already walking. He will always be my little baby thought! Here is the cutest video of him walking to me with his grocery cart that Uncle Deagan gave him, as well as all by himself! See how far we have come in just a matter of one week! And I just found out today at daycare, that he is the first in his class to start walking! He better get used to being first in his class ;))

Happy Birthday Spencer!

One Year Ago!

Thought everyone might get a kick out of this picture of me from one year ago. Last year at this time, I was having contractions and almost one day from now, we had little Spencer. It is hard to believe that he is a year old! It has gone by so fast but every moment has been so special to us. We are blessed to have such a wonderful child! We look forward to many more wonderful moments!
