Peter turns 1 year old

I cannot believe a year has already passed. Although he is now technically a toddler (I am told without question since he is both one and walking), he is still our little bundle of joy. We jointly celebrated our anniversary (same day) and his birthday on the 27th by going to Olive Garden, where he sat at the table in his high chair and behaved very well. He's already started developing those poor eating habits all kids would seem to naturally prefer, scarfing down the bits of breadstick and completely ignoring the delicious parmesan chicken. 

Here is a brief list of his accomplishments to date: 

-Kisses (and lots of them)

-Waves

-Does "SO BIG" (arms up over head)

-Says "bye bye"

-Says "Dada"

-Roars like a lion (actually a gurgling sound in the throat)

-Quacks like a duck

-"Spouts" (?) like a whale (courtesy of our Alaska trip)

-Can kind of blow a kiss

-Walks (started JUST before 11 months)

-Climbs (like out of the bathtub if you're not watching)

-Claps


And there's probably more I'm not thinking of. I hope I can always remember all his different cries. (My favorite being the one that leads up to a yawn (whaa, wha, whoa, oah, ::yawn::). The different looks he gets (waking up my favorite). The funny things he does... I love him so.
