almost one.

My baby boy turns one in four days. Where has the time gone? This time last year I was counting down the days until his arrival and frantically trying to get everything ready for him. Now, we spend our days chasing him around!

Nate is showing us how inquisitive he is with each and every day.  I'm really enjoying watching him explore and learn.  My favorite new things that he is doing:

*Wants to hold your hand while he walks around
*Hides under the dining room table when he poops (something only a mother could love, I guess)
*Spins around in circles to make himself dizzy
*Figures out how to undo anything that is baby proofed, even if it means that I have to buy a new trashcan, new coffee table, and who knows what else. Our latest adventure with oven knob locks was a bust - he found that he could rip the whole thing off, knob and all, and rattle it to make noise.

Even though we're four days away from the real birthday, we are doing his first birthday party at our house tomorrow with lots of family and friends.  I can't wait, but at the same time, I hate to see him turn a year old already.  Little man is ready to roll!
