Happy 1st Birthday

Wow has it been a year already? It is crazy to believe that our little boy is a year old. He has been a wonderful addition to our family.

He loves to dance and is starting to sing. He is walking around and really wants to run. There is no keeping him in one place, Daddy misses the cuddling. He is growing so fast, at his 1yr check up he was 21.5 pounds and 30 inches long. Luis says he is tall, which makes me laugh. He wants so badly for Nolan to be 6 ft. tall.Nolan's vocabulary is growing everyday. He is saying Mama, Dada, bye, hello (lo), and is working on saying Nathan ( Na).

Nolan's eyes have been changing daily, they went from blue gray to hazel. I would love to have a brown eyed little boy but I guess we will see. I told Luis that the only part that he got from me has slowly disappeared. He told Nolan "to put the blue back in his eyes, Mommy is getting sad."

We had a Frog Birthday Party for Nolan, with family and friends. Nolan wasn't feeling very well but I think everyone had a wonderful time. Nolan got some wonderful new toys and clothes. We had the best cake in the world, thank you Gina. Luis cooked burger and hot dogs for everyone.

The Monday before his birthday Nolan had a high fever so we went to the Doctor, and ended up going back on his Birthday (Wednesday). Nolan had Rosieola, which is a rash or hives that appear after a high fever. He had a rough week, he wasn't sleeping or eating well. We are so glad that he felt better after a couple of days.

Luis and I no longer have a baby we have a toddler. And we look forward to all the new things that he is going to learn. He is Daddy's little monster, and Mommy's monkey. We love him and look forward to many many years of watching him grow.
