H had a birthday! As the youngest of three and also have a birthday close to Christmas, his birthday was easy to overlook. We had a birthday with friends and cake and ice cream, and he received a few pop up books. He adores them and then tries to rip them apart. They have to usually be hidden, because if he sees it he wants to read it. Again and again and again. 

H is my skinniest kid. All three of my kids were the exact same height at a year old, but he’s five pounds lighter. He’s also by far the best walker. He’s already been walking for about a month and toddles around everywhere–including up stools and stairs and anywhere else he can climb!

He loves sitting in chairs that are his size, still nurses a bundle, has just barely started sleeping well at night, and loves playing with his brothers.
