Look out...Bodee's 1!

You were born weighing 8 lb 12 oz on November 23rd, 2008 at 1:20 am

And now, at one years old, you are 20 lb 7 oz and growing by the minute...
You couldn't breath very well when you were born so they had to help you out with all this junk...Hard to even imagine that your left lung was smaller than your right...especially when you throw one of these fits...it's music to our ears (most of the time)

We had to teach you how to eat...and tried every way to convince you to do so...

Now you'll eat anything in front of you...(except peas)...

like dirt... and especially CAKE...

You were in the hospital for 3 weeks...so we wondered how behind you would be developmentally...

But you've been right on track and even took your first steps at 11 months on November 12th.

We are daily amazed with you little guy...you are such an great baby with a fun personality. You go to sleep at night so easily...and wake up in the morning ready to go at 6:30am SHARP (NC time or TX time...doesn't seem to matter to you LOL) You are into everything and love to explore only the places we tell you to stay away from...and each time, you turn back and give us the cutest little look...I'm guessing this is how you plan to get away with things when you are older. For now, it works...! You will forever be our little miracle baby and you will be an inspiration to us for the rest of our lives. You fought so hard when you were born and you continue to amaze us with each milestone you reach. We love you!!! HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!!
