Jamesy-boy

Yesterday I took James to get his 1-year pictures. I'm a pretty big slacker at getting my boys pictures taken... but I do manage to get a 1-year picture. I set up the appointment for right after his nap in hopes that he'd be in a spectacularly good mood. Didn't really work out like that. He just wanted to make "his face" (see picture to the right) the whole time. And I swear this boy does not hold still for a single minute! We managed to get a few pictures of him not making his face.

The thing is this: I totally expected a repeat of taking William to get his pictures taken at 1 year. He had a blast and we had so many cute pictures that it was impossible to choose just one!

Here are some fun facts about James while we are focused on him:

*He is a little scavenger... he wants to eat whatever anyone else is eating.

*At his one year doctor appointment he was in 50% for height and 25% for weight.

*He thinks he is a big boy and wants to do whatever William does.

*If we were ever to lose his blue blankie we'd be in HUGE trouble.

*He loves to dig in the trash... much to my dismay.

*He has fallen/tripped/been pushed more than any kid I know. It doesn't phase him at all... he just gets up and keeps on going.

*He's never watched more than 5 minutes of a show (and that's when he was sick) because he just won't hold still.

*He loves cars... he can turn anything into a car.

*He also loves phones... anything that's not turned into a car is probably turned into a phone.

*He knows that he is the cutest thing ever.

*Recently, he's turned into a daddy's boy.

*He has no fear. Nothing will stop him from doing what he thinks is fun.
