Pumpkin Time

Before we cut the pumpkin, Philip kept trying to roll it over like a ball. He wasn't quite strong enough to push it the whole way over.

Philip and I sat in the chair and shared a dessert while Nathan carved the pumpkin. Philip stared and said "Bump-king" over and over.

Ready for bed - trying to push the pumpkin over again. We're ready for Halloween now!!

Surprise!

Watch the video.

Afternoon Playtime

Philip likes to pull ALL the toys out and then decide which one to play with.

Books are still one of his favorites - he likes to turn all the pages.

"Mom, I'm tired after reading and playing all afternoon!"

Philip's first kiss

Here's a video of Philip from his First Birthday party on August 4. This is Philip and his friend, Grace.

1 Year Checkup

Yesterday was Philip's 1 year checkup. He weighs 20 pounds and 4 ounces, and he is 28 inches tall. Before we left the waiting room to go back to the exam room, he looked at the people in the waiting room, waved his hand and said "Bye bye!" I don't think he realized we were on our way to get 2 shots.

Philip's 1st Birthday

Yesterday was Philip's 1st birthday. I cannot believe we have had him for an entire year. Everyday with him is new and exciting, and I can't remember what life was like without him.

Philip's Birthday Gifts

Philip got tons of gifts. He really enjoyed the bows and paper.

Philip's 1st Birthday Cake

Here's the cake for the guests at Philip's party.

Here's Philip's own little cake!
He was a little slow with the cake at first.

Then both hands went in and he was hooked!
