A few months ago, we planned ahead for this momentous occasion and hid a few of his favorite things to give him as gifts for this birthday. He's stoked about his "new" toys and books and we are stoked about saving some dough!
Jude's favorite gift is that he now gets to turn his car seat around. He's lovin' being part of the family during car rides!
Jude is also very exited about having enough hair to get a cowlick. This picture was taken this evening, on his birthday. Two hours after he had fallen asleep for the night, we realized we had not taken a birthday photo, so we did what we felt was necessary...Sorry buddy.
The final exiting news of the day is that Jude finally worked up enough confidence to take a few steps on his own today. He has been steady enough for a while now, but he's a very calculating and careful fellow (Troy thinks he's a chicken-baby) and has refused until today to take even a step without someone holding him. He will now take up to 4 steps toward a couch without anybody touching him! This is a huge improvement from the 0 steps he would take yesterday!
We thought you would also enjoy a picture of Cameron the super-uncle with Jude and his 3 cousins! Our family seems to grow daily and we will soon be unable to gather together under one roof.
