We Had a Birthday Party!!

AHHH - He's one! Immediate family and a few close friends gathered at my Mom & Dad's house in Galveston to celebrate George Michael's first birthday! We had such a great time. But this whole turning one thing feels very bittersweet. On one hand I miss my baby (especially that sweet baby smell) and on the other it is just amazing watching him turn into a little person. And what a sweet little person he is.

We had his one year well baby check today. He weighs almost 27 pounds (80th%), is 30 inches tall (60th%) and has a head size of 50.5 cm (97th%). I'm glad Daddy was with us because the shots this time were pretty rough. It just about broke my heart in half. And he was moderately anemic so we have to start an iron supplement and recheck in a month. Other than that he is healthy and happy.
