We can hardly believe that our last baby boy is one year old already. Where did the year go?? As much as it was a celebration of his birth, it was also a celebration of us surviving our first year as parents of four. In the last month Jonah has definitely said good-bye to baby food and is officially off formula. He's drinking whole milk bottles three to four times a day. We've had to introduce juice because the milk makes him constipated. I'm hoping we find a good balance of milk, juice and water in the next week. Jonah is making strides towards walking and is now pushing his little rolling toys around. No independent steps yet. He now has four teeth and is working on two more. One interesting thing is that he seems to be getting his top teeth before his bottom ones. All our other boys got bottom teeth before top teeth. Jonah still takes two naps a day although some days he fights either the morning or the afternoon nap and ends up only taking one. Thankfully Jonah is not a paci addict like Jude was and only takes it when it's time to sleep. Jonah spent his first birthday sleeping in and then going to the Picture People to take photos. Afterwards we met up with Daddy for lunch and then home for a good nap. We ate dinner at McDonald's that night so the older boys could play on the playground and Jonah took down two chicken nuggets on his own. He's such a good eater. He also enjoyed some of my strawberry banana smoothie. He had a nice visit with Poppa Mike, Mimi and Aunt Sarah before calling it a night. The next day he got to spend some quality time with Poppa, Gammie and Aunt Jocelyn who gave him a push toy to use at their house.
