It has happened...my little man turned One today. What a year it has been and what a delight he is. He laughs so easily, always has a smile and is generally chilled. His favourite toy is pushing a vehicle along the floor. I caught him standing without holding on today which is a first. He says 'woof woof' and 'raar' for dog and lion noises. He loves to wave goodbye and shake his head. He will eat just about anything and rarely refuses food. He is happiest when it is finger food and he can feed himself so he eats a lot of carrot, broccoli and grapes. He has 3 teeth on the bottom. He always has a sore finger from nipping one of them in a drawer or a door. The only way I can get him to sit still is to put 'In the night garden' on television but even that looks like it is wearing thin. We won't mention sleep, safe to say that he doesn't seem to need huge amounts of it and catches up when we are in the car.
We celebrated with his N.Irish cousins, Grandparents and Great Aunt.
Here he is experimenting with his new 'busy board'. The light, caster wheel and door stopper are current favourites.
In other news, MJ and his cousin Jack spent the afternoon building a military outpost and sniper tower! They were so proud of themselves. It makes my heart sing to see them inspired and delighting in their work.
