Our 1 Year Old!

Happy Birthday to our little Lando on the 7th of July!
There are so many things I love about you being one....
Firstly, we have FINALLY turned your seat around so that you can see us as we drive! As a result, for the first time ever we have seen you bring your toes to your mouth (DISGUSTING... but a milestone in itself). So, who knows how long that business has been going on...
I love that you are so adventurous and love to move around
I love that you are learning to communicate how you are feeling
I love that you are more snugly and enjoy giving kisses
I love that we finally made it thought a sacrament meeting with no one having to take you out
I love your social laugh even when you don't have clue what is funny
You are just the greatest little guy! You are a blessing and a challenge. You make me feel needed and accomplished. You have strengthened our family and we love you so much!

At the one year appointment Landon weighed in at a whopping 24.63 pounds... we have now broken through back down to the 70's percentile (about 77 to be exact)! Landon is 29.75 inches long (50th percentile), and his head is 18.25 inches around (50th percentile) for those that keep track of that kind of stuff!
He has many words... mama, dada, joe, hi, bye, ball, done, more, no, yeah, nose, uh-oh
Signs: all-done, more, eat, wave, bye (blowing kisses), I think that about it. He loves to make sound effects especially car noises, and enjoys copying whatever noises other children happen to be making.
He is one smart little guy! :) We couldn't be happier!
Pictures of the Birthday coming soon!
