Jacob Turns One... 6/1/10

Our Dearest Jacob,

Mommy and daddy can't believe it's been a year already. You're 1, our little boy is growing up so fast. We remember the day you were born like it just happened... seriously. I can probably recall any detail about that day. Try me! :) We love you so much. You've brought so much joy to our family and taught your daddy and I a lot about ourselves. You don't know it yet, but you've helped me through some tough times this past year and I'm so happy that you're growing up and becoming more independent. Watching you try new skill and figure out how you're going to conquer the world is all too precious.

Love, Mommy and Daddy

You're into: peek-a-boo, found your tongue and like to squish it and poke at it as well as mommy and daddy’s (you giggle when you poke our tongue, probably because it’s squishy and wet!), still into Mickey’s Clubhouse, watching the dogs play outside, walking along furniture, standing without assistance.

Current Stats: You got 3 shots today and did very well. You only cried for about a minute and then you were all better. A little groggy when you got home, but after a nap were ready to go, go, go!

Weight: 17lb, 4.2oz (still going up the growth curve and holding strong at 0%)

Length: 27” (MY DISCLAIMER: I beg to differ with how you're measured at the doctors office so we measured at home at you’re 28”, which puts you at about 5% of length-for-age. You're weight and length are on the smaller side, but you're weight-for-length is almost 50% so you're perfectly proportioned.)

Head circumference: 18 ½” (almost 75%)

You have 6 teeth. 4 on the top, 2 on the bottom.
