Happy Birthday Wit Bug!

Officially 12 months old....crazy!
I'm one!

We are so thankful for this joyful, silly, active, sweet sweet boy! To prepare for the big celebration, Witten started "answering" questions that week with "nee" or "nah" and walked the length of our house. Even though he'd been walking more often, he still wasn't really sturdy on his feet until the day before his party. He stood himself up and walked from the kitchen to the front door. It's always amazing to me to see how quickly things change once they decide they're ready!

Fun friends to celebrate with!



This year has flown by, and his birthday crept up so quickly after celebrating Thanksgiving. We had such a fun time celebrating with family and friends at our house. It was a full house, much like Tytus' first birthday, but now several of our friends have added even more children to their families. He was happy to celebrate with everyone, enjoyed his cupcake (although he preferred a banana instead of finishing his cupcake), and then he was ready for a nap. We see him being more of an introvert, so when things get crazy he seems to like some quiet space. We loved celebrating our son with so many special people and are so thankful for everyone we get to walk alongside as we continue to learn how to be parents to these two awesome boys!
singing happy birthday....yummy! 

So thankful for our family of four and our sweet blessing, Witten
Witten got to celebrate again at Papou and Yaya's house with crazy blue icing!
They couldn't make it to the first celebration due to lots of ice in Dallas

Witten still had about 2 weeks after his party until he was officially one, and he just continued to change. He made the transition from mostly crawling to all walking and no crawling. He seemed to make it all the way through his first year with no teeth with his first one popping through on December 26! Now we can see four or five more just barely covered in gums. Any day we'll be getting more! So much changed in the past year, but we're just as excited to see all the changes that this next year holds for our little guy! Happy Birthday, Witten!
