Bear has hit so many milestones in the past couple months alone. Not only is he walking, he's babbling like crazy, climbing all over stuff, coloring, laughing at everything, playing catch, and drumming like a champ (he actually seems to play with a beat at times, which completely blows my mind)! I love seeing how much he changes from day to day and am so excited to see what the next few months have in store for us.
The birthday party was a huge success. We had it at a park down the street from our house and so many of our friends and family traveled from far away to be there. We went with the "Little Man" theme since we've said since the day Bear was born that he is such a little old man to us. I got a photographer for the party so that we didn't have to stress about taking pictures and she also took some family pictures of us beforehand. I'm so glad I hired a professional because of course Bear got his first black eye the day before the party. The photographer did an amazing job of editing it out in our family photos, which I never could have done on my own. I am absolutely in love with the pictures and think they turned out so great!
When I think about the past year I'm amazed by how much my tiny little baby has changed. He has gone from a squishy newborn to a little boy in what seems like the blink of an eye. I have loved Bear with all of my heart from the moment I met him and yet somehow that love grows even bigger with each and every day. Since becoming a mom I've felt emotions I've never felt before and my life has greater meaning because of him. He is truly the love of my life and I will always do anything for him. I love you, Bear.
