February 26th- March 4th: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I am not going to write a ton here, because there will be a 1-year letter coming soon!! I am, however, going to narrate through a BUNCH of pictures from his birthday :)
Another big happening this week, Silas got Tubes in his ears on Monday after his birthday. He was such a fantastic boy for it. They had warned us that he would come off the 5 minutes of anesthesia in one of two ways- screaming or sleepy. We were pretty positive he would do the later, because screaming really isn't his style. I was able to go back and hold him while he fell asleep. Then, 7 minutes later the doctor came in to tell us he did great. He was sleepy and hungry when he returned, and then we went home and played. So crazy!!!
The last big thing for the week was Silas' 1-year doctors appointment. SHOTS, SHOTS, SHOTS...
Stats (all in the 98th percentile):
Height: 33 inches
Weight: 26lbs, 8 oz.
(compared to Harrison at 1- 26lbs, 5 oz, and 32.5 inches)
All my boys on Silas' birthday.
Riding on his scooter plane doing "Wheels on the Bus".
More "Wheels on the Bus"...
...more "Wheels on the Bus"...
...and more "Wheels on the Bus".
Opening presents is a group effort when you are one!
In true Silas style, he thought the cupcake was good, but not as good as sucking his thumb!
Facetiming grandma and grandpa in Arizona for the cake eating.
He finally tasted a little frosting at the end, but it was very neat and tidy.
And, finally... "Wheels on the Bus"!!
All ready to get his tubes!!
I
used Heidi's cookie cake recipe to make the birthday cake for Silas,
since he wasn't all that dons of cupcakes. This was a much bigger hint
all around!
We had Silas' family birthday party at a big indoor park called Edinbourough. The cousins LOVED all the activity on a cold winter day, and I loved that we were not all crammed in our little house.
Silas enjoyed opening cards and a few presents. We asked fr donations to a children's book program at Children's Hospital, since the boys have a TON of toys!
Last- We ate BURGERS at Fudrucker's (this time it was dad's choice, but Silas does like hamburgers).
WOW!!! A year has FLOWN BY SO FAST!!!
