The Big Day

The big day started out by turning Holden's carseat to forward facing since he now meets the requirements of being 1 year old and over 20 lbs. We headed to the mall for a ride on the Dulles Express (train), a spin on the merry-go-round, and a Chick-Fil-A lunch before coming home for a big nap. We topped off the night with cake and a bath. A great day, even with his pesky runny nose.

1 Year stats from his check up:

Weight: 22 lbs. 7 oz.

Length: 31 inches
Head: 19 inches

Birthday Eve

Facing forward

Riding the rails. Holden kept saying Choo Choo (his version of it) during the ride.

Window shopping along the way.

Still looking a little under the weather.

Merry-Go-Round

Quite possibly the saddest birthday boy ever

Pitiful

Happier after a little taste of cake.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!
