Mateo - Twelve Months

Happy Birthday!!

I cannot believe how time flies. It seems like just yesterday that we brought home a little 6lb 9oz bundle of joy and we were trying to figure out how this parenting thing should work.

Well that 6lb 9oz bundle of joy is now about 20lbs of pure sassy energy (many think he gets that from me) and we've entered the world of tantrums and timeouts, for which I blame his ped. We had his one year appointment and she said to not be surprised if he starts to throw himself on the floor or hold his breath or bang his head...um excuse me? About two days later, the throwing himself on the floor and banging his head had started.

Thankfully, his "bad" days are some kids "good" days so we really can't complain too much. He is such a little boy now...and it's a bit surreal.

We celebrated his birthday with brunch at Todd and Anna's on their deck and some wonderful cake:
