Twelve Months

It really is crazy to see the change and growth Paxton has made in twelve months. His little personality shines through more and more each day. From day one he had those big eyes wide open that just wanted to take in the world, and still today he is the same way. Always on the go exploring everything around him! He has become quite the little walker. That is all he wants to do now days is use those legs to walk, and walk. I feel bad at times that our apartment is so small, and because he is always exploring I have to close off some of the rooms which makes the place even smaller. We try to get out at least once a day so that he isn't too bored. He still takes two naps a day so we have a small window of time around lunch to go out and have some fun. He is such a trooper putting up with all my trips to different stores haha He weighs 18lbs10oz and is 30in tall. Still really small for his age, but that is nothing new :) I try not to stress about food and feeding him, but it is hard when I know how small he is. He has defiantly started getting more picky! Some of his favorite foods are cheese, ravioli, oatmeal, pancakes, tomatoes, avocados and bananas. He can say mama, dada and nana but I don't think he has associated them with their meanings yet. Soon enough though because he walks around the house jabbering all day long! People tell us how handsome & cute he is all the time, and that he has the biggest blue eyes and longest eyelashes ever! We are pretty bias and totally agree haha Here are some extra pictures we captured over the past month.

Making a Ravioli mess! 
New big boy carseat! 
Reading a book with dad.. sometimes dad makes us words instead of reading the book like it's written ;)
Happy boy riding Dumbo at the toy store
He learned how to drink for a straw while on vacation is Utah
At his twelve month check up
His top two teeth finally came in and my family kept saying he looks like Spongebob now! He's got quite the gap... good thing for braces! 
Watching cartoons in the morning.. Sesame Street! 
Paxton still loves bath time. We usually have to give him one right after dinner because he is so messy. As soon as he hears the water running, he goes running for the bathroom!
