Lesh made this video of Nathaniel for his 1 year birthday. It is Nathaniel's life told through video. It brought me to tears!! The song playing is by Plumb called, "In My Arms." I hope you enjoy it!

Happy Birthday Nathaniel!

Happy Birthday to my precious Nathaniel Joseph!  I can not believe that a year ago Nathaniel was born and my world changed forever!  Everything about motherhood I have loved!  I loved feeling him in my belly and then the moment the doctor placed him in my arms, priceless.  Nathaniel has brought so much joy into Lesh's and my life.  He is full of smiles and laughter and has the best personality.  I thank God for blessing me with such a gift.  Here is my baby through the year!

11 Months Old!

Nathaniel turned 11 months old on December 27th.  At the end of this month he will be 1  year old!  I can't believe it! Everyone says how fast time flies and they aren't lying!  Nathaniel has brought so much blessing and richness into our lives.  He is so funny.  He brings lots of laughter into our house.  He loves his mommy and daddy dearly and his dog too.  He is so active and curious about things and explores every chance he gets.  These are some things that Nathaniel does at 11 months!
-Takes his milk in sippy cups 2 times a day and a bottle at night, but we are giving up the bottle in a few weeks completely.
- Starting to dring whole milk and less formula.
- Can do a few signs sometimes, not all the time-"All done," "milk," food"
-Eats a whole bunch! This boy can eat!  His favorites are bananas, toast, and peas!
-Still sleeps from 7-7 and takes 2 naps a day although this week he hasn't been wanting an afternoon nap so we will see!
-He is cruising like nobody's business!  He can walk with assistance and with one handed assistance.  I have a feeling he'll be walking in the next month or so.
- He makes a new funny face with his face squished and his mouth open showing off his 2 bottom teeth.
-He can stack rings and put balls into his toy to watch them go down the maze. 
-Tries to climb on everything!
So many new things are what's happening this month!
My boy is growing!
