Trevor is 1!!

I seriously can't believe that my baby is one!! This first year went so much faster than it did with Lyla for some reason. We had a fun birthday celebration for him. Here's the birthday boy sitting with his blue balloons that he loved chasing around!

Lyla has been so excited for his birthday and has been talking about it for weeks. It was sweet to see her focusing on him although of course there were moments when she tried to steal the show.

 Lyla had a little date with daddy to make the cake and then I had fun decorating. My sweet angel! I love how he puts his arm around me and holds on so tight when I hold him.

 I used a ton of gel food color to get the frosting red enough for the barn so Trevor had red lips and hands all night. He enjoyed eating and playing with his cake- he was definitely more willing to get messy than Lyla was at his age!

He got a Thomas set that will be fun especially as he gets a little older. Lyla loves it for sure!! We invited some friends to be our family for the night and join us for cake and presents and it was really fun to have them with us.

Trevor is growing and changing every day! He still hasn't had the desire to attempt a step on his own but loves walking around while we hold his hands. He loves to click his tongue and crawls all over the house clicking away. He likes books, especially animal books and calls every animal "dog!" Anytime we go into our basement he reaches up for the swing and begs until we put him in it. He's very content there for awhile, but only if we stay right there pushing him. If we walk away he gets upset until we're back. Unlike Lyla who is still scared of the vacuum, he follows it around as I clean the house and tries to touch it. He's my little snuggler- if I lay on the floor or on my bed he'll crawl all around me playing and then come racing and crash into me. He'll lay on me for a few minutes, just sucking his thumb and holding on to me. Those are my favorite moments!

Here are his current stats:
Height: 29 3/4 inches (46%), Weight: 21 lbs (47%), Head 47 cm (75%)

Amazing cake! Way to go. It looks like Trevor had a fun birthday, even if he didn't know what was going on.
