Happy 1st Birthday, Nathan John!

The day has come and my little guy is a year old!  Nathan is the most smiley, loving, and emotional little boy.  He shows the people in his life so much love and it's amazing to me that a one year old is capable of not only feeling it, but being able to show so much affection.

Food - This is a much easier stage because he eats what we eat now and he's able to feed himself most of the time.  We cut up most things, but he's also able to hold a sandwich and take bites of it.  Meat is his favorite, and the kid doesn't like pasta...?

Nursing - We're at 4x/day now.  We've also been giving him cow's milk every so often and although he didn't take to it right away he can't get enough of it now.

Sleeping - Naps are terrific, but we're still working on our overnight sleeping.  I've been nursing him once (on average) in the wee hours of the morning.

Moving - No walking yet.  He really just started cruising around tables and couches.  He's a little speed demon on all-fours.

Some stats from his 12 month visit:
Weight: 19lbs 5oz - 19%
Height: 29in - 20%
Head Circ: 18.5in - 77%

For comparison, here are his Newborn stats:
Weight: 7lbs 10oz - 59%
Height: 21in - 97%
I don't have his newborn head circumference measurement.
