Seriously how did that happen!?!? Yes my precious little boy is a year. It flew by so fast, I feel like just yesterday I found out I was going to be a Momma. Here he is, running (literally) everywhere, talking my ear off, and learning new things every day. He is about the happiest guy I have ever seen (besides hubs…if I didn't know better I'd think those two get happy injections. They are NEVER grumpy!) and he is so sweet and clever! I can't believe he went from this….

(Look how itty bitty ::sigh::)

…..to this……

….to this! Honestly that is so much growing and changing in just one year! I think you can tell what a sassy fella he is

His favorite toys right now are his sock monkeys…and his Mimi and Poppi just keep giving him more! Mostly he chews on them but they are the only stuffed animals he likes. Plus we gave him a sock monkey party (more on that later.)

Better enjoy those cute buns….it's the last time you will see them
I figure tooshy shots are fine until a year. They are too cute!!

IF you are thinking that's the coolest hoodie ever….you'd be right. Beanie knows it too, he growls when he wears it. (Although he growls all the time so it's hard to be sure it's the hoodie:P)

LOVE that smile, the one on the right is precious to me. He likes to run around arms up when he's super happy. Whenever we say arms up he will throw them up and just run as fast as he can with a big smile on his face. He's not smiling too much there because he had never stepped on grass before and hadn't given a verdict on it yet

He does this a lot too…smacks the side of his head. He's very expressive…I don't know who he gets that from

Bean thinks his Daddy is FUN-NY. Momma…eh..not so much. I am a good tickler, but Daddy is the funny one:) I don't get boy humor though…punching and kicking and spitting. Outfit courtesy of Mimi.

I've been obsessed with his profile ever since Tabitha showed it to me. I can't decide if I wanna grab his face and smooch him or rip my eyes out because he's so cute I might melt!

Oh my heavens….I might die he's so precious.

He makes a lot of faces….again I don't know where he gets it from

HAHA! That face on the right..he makes that face when you ask him "where's your nose?"
Most of the photos I took of Bean throughout the year were taken at my own home, except for these last ones in the fedora. Now you all know that you have great spots for photos in your home. Even if you don't see them yourself I will!
I can't believe he is a year, (he's actually 14 months today and he's been walking for 5 months yowza) and I still can't believe how much I love him. Sometimes I just look at him and think I just may explode! He's brought so much joy, love, and laughter into our house. Hubs and I think what did we ever do without him? I mean really. I guess we slept in on weekends…that's probably about it. He keeps us on our toes and makes us better people.
FYI we are not going to be trying for another soon, so no comments please! We are enjoying Beanie too much to worry about that right now
Rest assured whenever that does happen you'll know!
