Happy First Birthday, Peter!

ONE! Today is a day of celebration and memory. One year ago, Peter was born at 3:33 pm, weighing 9 lbs 12 oz and 22 inches long. He is now about 30.5 inches tall and 20 lbs. His deep blue eyes have developed a mischievous twinkle. His babyish coos have turned into "dat", "muh", "ah-ba", and contagious laughter. The once tiny, finger-grasping hands now clap with enthusiasm, bang anything like a drum, turn pages of books, and hold a spoon full of food. His soft, purplish baby feet are now often dirty and a little rough as he drags them behind his knees while he crawls up and over, around and through any surface. His once mostly bald head....is still mostly bald!

We celebrate you every day, Peter. But today we celebrate balloons and streamers, presents, song and one happy, shining candle. You are worth celebrating! We love you and praise God for blessing our lives with YOU.

(Pictures to come so check back soon! We've been having some photography kinks...)
