Happy Birthday, Baby!

James turned one on Thursday, March 24th. We were at Disneyland:

James's birthday churro:

James is so much like his daddy. From his quiet determination to his curly brown hair.

Wiped out at the end of the day:

Crazy to think he's only been with us a year now. Now he can walk now & say a few short words. My favorite is 'Wooow'! He loves to eat whatever we're eating & he only wants to do whatever his older brother or parents are doing-he even enjoyed the rides with us. I think Small World was his favorite, he danced and clapped a lot on it!

Even at such a young age, he's able to clearly make his wishes known. I have caught him a few times purposely getting Alec in trouble so he could get a toy-classic little brother! He loves to push buttons, so when I put a child gate in front of the DVD player, he moved a ride-on toy in front of the gate so he could stand on that to reach over & push the buttons.

James has such a sweet smile and loves to laugh! He's ticklish everywhere and his grandpa dubbed him, 'James the happy'. We love our smiley little man!
