Our Little Boy is 1!!!

It's so hard to believe that a year ago, our little boy was born! It's been quite a year for us, but it's been amazing, and it's gone by way too fast. It doesn't seem possible that Ammon was born the tiniest little peanut and has gotten to be so big and so healthy. We are so blessed to be parents to this wonderful baby! When Ammon was born, he weighed 2 lbs 8 oz, was 15 3/4 in long, and his head was only 10 inches. At his 12 month appointment, he weighed 18 lbs 9 oz (10th %), was 29 inches long(25th %), and his head was 18 1/4 inches (40th%). The doctor said that not counting for prematurity, he is doing great! And he is definitely a handful! He is crawling, pulling himself up, and walking while holding onto things. He is into EVERYTHING and he has so much energy...he definitely keeps us busy! We love him so much and we are so grateful for him and that he is healthy and happy!

Ammon at his birthday party with friends before we moved.



Presents!





Ammon's cake. Clearly my cake decorating skills need some work. To be fair, I didn't have all the right tools.






He wasn't quite sure what to do with it.

Turns out Ammon's not a huge fan of cake.

My friend Sarah and her baby Georgia (such a cute little peach!)



My friend Mackenzie's baby Blythe. Love that smile!

Family :)



These pictures are from his actual birthday...we want to start a tradition of going out to breakfast on a birthday. Since we hadn't showered or anything, we just went through the drive-thru at Dunkin' Donuts...but Ammon loved it!



Doughnuts for the birthday boy!


We tried cake again at Grammys...



still not a fan.



We thought that maybe the reason he didn't like his cake at his party was because he was a little overwhelmed because of all the people there...and that cake had a TON of frosting on it. Nope, Ammon just doesn't like cake. Oh well. It was still a good day spent with family.
