Our little guy is one! He is so sweet and just a joy to be around. He has a big sense of humor and his squeaky laugh is contagious. He's very determined and focused when he's trying to do something. He's started throwing little tantrums when he gets frustrated but he's easily comforted. Luckily he loves hugs because he's the most huggable baby. He plays independently really well, but every so often he will crawl over for a hug. It's the best. He's very curious and he loves finding new things to explore. The objects he's most interested in are anything he has seen Ellie holding. This drives her crazy but I admire how observant he is. We just adore him and can't wait to see everything he learns in his second year.
