Nathaniel is now 1 year old. Actually he has been for 10 days now. It is amazing how fast time goes by. He is an amazing little boy. For his birthday we didn't just have a one day celebration, in fact, we celebrated all weekend long and it was a long weekend since President's Day was the day after his birthday. On Saturday we had a family dinner for any who could and wanted to attend at Gertie's. Nate got to eat as much pizza, cottage cheese and olives as he wanted to. He actually really enjoyed the evening. He opened his presents from his grandparents, aunts, and uncles at gerties. Poppa & Nana got him a turtle he can bounce up and down on and when I lifted the large box up so he could see it he hugged the box. It was very cute. He also got a drum, toddler piano, Optimus Prime Rescue Bot, and a stacking toy. Aunt Jenn was less than excited to see the drum. On Sunday, his actual birthday, we let him open his presents from us and his brothers. We got him a Fisher Price Zoo with animals that roar. He absolutely loved it. Once we got it all put together he stood up next to it and shook it. The boys got him extra animals to go with his zoo. On Monday my sisters and their kids were coming to Rupert so we had cake and icecream with them at my parent's house. I got up on Monday and made a 3D duck cake and decorated it. To the left is the finished product. I was pretty happy with how it turned out. Overall he celebrated turning one pretty well. On Monday I also took him to the doctor for his 1 year well baby check up. He got his immunizations and showed the doctor how fast he can crawl. Jon went with us since he likes going to the doctor (he gets suckers at the doctors office).
Nate and Jon were chasing each other around the base of the examinig table when our doctor came into the room. He was 31 inches tall (90th percentile and taller than both of my other boys) and weighed 20 lbs (10th percentile). He is an inch taller and a pound lighter than Jonathen was at one year old. He can take a few steps by himself, but prefers to crawl. He will take a few steps and then look around accusingly and promptly sit down. It is almost like it surprises him that he walked without help. It is kind of funny. Nana let go of him and he took 2 steps, he then turned and glared at Nana and quickly set down. He is an adorable little boy that loves to play with his brothers. We are so happy to have him in our family
