Wesley turned 1 year old this morning! It is hard to believe it has already been that long since he joined our family! He has been such a sweet blessing to us and we cannot imagine our lives without him:

Wesley at 1:

  • Sophie says: "He's very cute."
  • Evan : " He's so nice and he thinks I'm his mom. That's what babies say to me."
  • He's so calm and content most of the time.
  • He wants to keep up with Evan and Sophie and tolerates Evan tackling him ALL DAY LONG. 
  • He's starting trying to tackle Evan, too.
  • He is constantly running around. He trips now more than he ever has because his brain wants to go faster than his little legs can keep up.
  • He started walking at about 8.5 months old and now is climbing chairs. I'm just waiting until he figures out that he can move chairs to get to what he wants...
  • He loves balls.
  • He loves going to the Y. He especially loves Delia, a child care worker.
  • He is very affectionate and will let just about anyone pick him up and give him loves, even if just for a minute.
  • He says "Mama" regularly and sometimes "Dada". 
  • He is generally kind of quiet, but when he is playing with the kids, he sure gets his voice going.
  • This kid LOVES food and can eat like no other 12 month I have had. I am always surprised by how much food he can put away.
  • He loves to giggle and play games with the kids.
  • He loves being chased and playing tag (or I am going to get you...)
  • He is almost entirely weaned. 
  • He has 4 teeth. 
  • He loves climbing the stairs. He fell down once(he was unhurt) and has been pretty good about staying away from the top of them since.
  • He gets really upset when Sophie and Evan go upstairs to play without him.
  • Or really anywhere without him. 
  • I am pretty sure he would rather hang out with them, than with his Mom or Dad.
  • He loves our church playgroup. He gets in there and plays with the big kids.
  • He sleeps 12-13 hours a night and usually has 1-2 naps.
  • He likes remotes and handing Daddy his shoes.
  • He thinks he can do everything that Evan can do. One night Evan was running around pretending to be a super hero. I looked over at Wesley who would try to jump and then throw his arms above his head, like Evan was doing.
  • He know exactly what to do when we say " Champion" . Throw his arms  in the air above his head, obviously.
