This kid.

Did I mention Jefferson is ONE.  I need to take a minute and record some of my thoughts about this sweet boy. It's kinda hard to describe how much love he gets around here. He is just SO CUTE. And sweet. And I've said it before, but I'll say it again. HAPPY.  He's happy to be picked up, happy if you throw a ball to him, happy if you stand him up on his fat little legs, happy if you give him food (REALLY HAPPY), happy if he finds a piece of yarn on the floor, happy to follow the kitty around and try to snuggle with her, happy playing in his crib before he falls asleep or after he wakes up. JUST really really happy.  Of course not always, he is a baby after all, but we take it and soak it all up. He fits in our family so well.  Mr J is not walking yet, but has started to pull himself up to stand. He still army crawls all over.  He loves to say "Ba!" and chase balls around after throwing them. He also loves the game where you give him something and he gives it back, repeat. Forever.  He will usually sit chilled out forever in his stroller if there are things to see.  His naps get interrupted ALL the time, but he's ok with it.  He gets super angry if anyone eats and he doesn't have any. He will start enthusiastically signing "more" and saying "nanananananananaaa" (he REALLY likes bananas). Harrison makes him laugh to the point of having hiccups pretty much every single day. Usually by jumping up and down in the crib while jefferson is in it.... I can also make him laugh pretty hard too, by blowing on him or tickling him. HE LOVES to be tickled.  And he also loves his mommy the best. Yep. It's true.  I kinda love it.

We love you so much Jefferson! We want you to stay this cute fun age forever, but at the same time can wait to see what an adorable fun kid you grow in to. Happy birthday around 26 days ago!!!!
