Carters First Birthday

Wow I can't believe it has already been a year! My boy is getting so big and I wish he would just stay little. This last year has been the best year and I can't wait for all the years to come.
A little bit about Carter:

• He is such a smart boy, he doesn't push himself but once he wants to do something he picks it up right away.
• He is still Crawling all the time and not walking, but once again he won't push himself so I know it will come.
• First word was Duck. He will say Du to everything.
• Hates his hands touched or anything on his hands. He is a very clean little boy
• Loves to play peak-a-boo with just about anyone.
• Loves pears and any kind of fruit. He also loves pickles and olives just like his mom!
• Very Picky eater!
• Loves animals and gets really excited when I let him sit on our horse
• He loves loves loves to sit in boxes. Any one that he can climb into he will and then just sit and play.
• He has figured out how to unlock things such as a dog crate. He will sit and study something until he figures it out.
• Has 11 teeth  including 4 molars. This has been hard since he is sooo fussy lately with those coming in.
• Loves to talk and he sings too. Its like when he talks but in a high pitch voice.
• Loves his baths and gets so upset when we take him out.

There are so many more things I could say but I will just show you a bunch of pictures instead of him growing up this year. :) Also we threw his first birthday on the 1st of January and he had a blast.  He didn't want anything to do with the cake. When I stuck his hand in the frosting he freaked out! Like I said earlier he doesn't like anything on his hands. But he finally gave in and ate some of it. Thanks to all of our family that came it was great having everyone there.
