Happy Birthday to Nate!

Our little guy is one!  He's such a sweet, happy guy and we all love him to pieces.  It was a fabulous year and we can't imagine life without our Nate Bug!  Here are some pictures of his actual birthday and his sock monkey party.

Nate's 12 Month Update



We had Nate's 12 month well-check last week.  His stats are 21 lbs. 6 oz (27%) and 31 3/4 inches (94%).  His head is consistently small, 6%!  Just for fun, Anna stats at 12 months were 26 lbs. and 32 1/2 inches (off the chart for both).  Nate's slowed down alot, gaining less than 2 lbs. between 6 and 12 months.  The dr. says it's nothing to worry about, he just had a huge growth spurt early on and is a very active guy!  The poor guy had to get a vial of blood drawn b/c I suspected that he has an egg allergy, since he broke out around his mouth the first time I gave him scrambled eggs.  The nurse called yesterday to confirm that he does have an allergy, but thankfully it looks like a mild one.  He'll probably be fine to eat things that have eggs as an ingredient, just not plain eggs.  We'll go to the allergist to find out for sure though.  Other than that, a great check up!  I've got lots of pics to post from Nate's birthday, our trip to the Yellow River Game Ranch, and some sprinkler time in the backyard.  Stay tuned... :)
