Happy 1st Birthday Theodore!!!

Where in the world has your first year of life gone little man?!?!  It seems like just yesterday you arrived into our family!  Maybe it is because you were welcomed so wonderfully by your big sisters and because you have just been the perfect little boy, but we cannot even fathom life without you. 

You are a true lover boy, giving the best hugs, snuggles with your nose, smooches, and back pats and hair twirling.  Mama could literally eat you up 24 hours of the day!!!  You love to be by the action of your sisters.  You love playing with balls, playing catch or else just throwing and retrieving on your own.  You love to dance, wave your arms, and bounce.  You are a good eater with favorites of bread, avocados, blueberries, and cheese.  You have 2 bottom teeth and what looks like 1 coming through on the top soon.  As a baby you were rather laid back but you have definitely found your voice in this household, either pointing and/screaming, or just going up and taking it is what you so desire.  You love taking baths, and while you are fine with the company of your sisters you also seem to enjoy them on your own once in awhile.  You enjoy looking at and being read books.  You like to bang on things, put tops on/off or put things into containers.  You love to move quickly on the floor with your left knee down and your right foot up...when you use this pattern it means business!  You love the outdoors, though not a big fan of being confined to a stroller (especially when your sisters roam free around you).

For your special day we decided to stick close to home and visit the newly opened Rochester Children's Museum.  Being a weekday it was very quiet and we basically had the entire place to ourselves which was great.  You seemed to enjoy roaming around the activities...

And of course enjoyed the company of your silly, always entertaining sisters...

Papa met up with us for dinner where you thoroughly enjoyed another close favorite, pizza, and then a large birthday sundae (which of course was not entirely eaten by yourself!)...
Much love to you little man!
