Leo is ONE

Wow, where did this year go?

My sweet baby boy is a year old.

Here are a few memories I would like to keep of him forever.

-Leo is the happiest baby in the world.  Every picture you will see of him he has a big smile on his face because he is smiling most of the time.  If someone is talking to him he will double it for them.
- He LOVES his big brother.  He thinks John Henry walks on water.  I am sure this is going to mean big trouble in the future, but for now, it is a joy to watch.  John Henry often gives me the excuse of "But Leo thinks it's funny" when I scold him for doing something he shouldn't.
- We call Leo "Chubbers" "Chunk" and "The Giant Baby."  He is all of those things and so dang adorable.  Everyone loves a fat baby and especially a fat baby with those so squeezable cheeks.  The best part is that he loves to have his cheeks and chubby thighs squeezed and tickled.  He wear size 2T clothes and weighs 29 lbs and change.  He is also very tall.
- Leo is so content that he JUST decided that he wanted to learn to crawl.  He is now delighted with his ability to move around.  He crawls is such a funny way, not lifting up his knees at all, but instead sliding them along the floor.
-Leo loves to give kisses and snuggles.  If you ask him for a "kiss-kiss" he will happily lean forward with a slightly puckered mouth.
-He just learned to click his tongue against the top of his mouth and blink his eyes on command.  He loved to "play" with anyone who will do these two things with him.
- He adores his Dada, he calls him A-Da.  He calls me Rah-Rah and his brother Bafer.  He also says BaBa and recognized and responds to many other words.
- He LOVES books.

Happy birthday my cheery chubby baby.  I love more than words can describe.
