Can you believe that our little boy is one??? I totally can't! It seems like yesterday... literally. His birthday is at a whirlwind time of year, but we still got in some good celebratin'. I am not going to document every picture, but he had a great Tonka themed party, my mom made an awesome cake, Daxton LOVED and devoured every single morsle of his cupcake, and every gift he was given has been thouroughly enjoyed.... especially the Buzz car. It is so cute to see him walk around everywhere with it!
He is one now and officially weights 20.06 lbs!!!!! So that means a new car seat (thanks to Great Grandma Showell)!!! I think he like it... as much as any child would like a car seat. He just looks so big!
Speaking of looking big and old..... check out this handsome little man! He would absolutely NOT smile for the camera this day, but itsn't it SO cute!
Daxton's little milestones:
-weighs in at a whopping 20 lbs even and 28 inches.... all in about the 10thish percentile. I knew it would start dropping off someday... the kid is doomed to be short and skinny, with a big head.
-He still isn't walking and has expressed ZERO interest. You try and stand him up and he lifts up his legs or drops straight to his bum. Oh well, no rush little buddy.
-he jibber jabbers all day. It sounds like he is telling stories and his eyes get really expressive like we are supposed to understand him.
-He mimics a lot of words, but his favorite word is UH-OH right now. He says it then drops what he is holding, or says it if he hears something drop, everything is uh-oh lately. It is so cute. He slept in our room with us over Christmas and when he would stir during the night he would just say it over and over.... not so cute then. :)
-Weaning from the bottle and formula.... don't ask. He HATES milk. Suggesstions anyone?
This little boy has blessed our lives so much I can't even express it. He is SUCH a happy, busy, mischevious little boy and I wouldn't change a thing about him. We love you Baby Daxton!

Chocolate milk...our second Claire wouldn't have anything to do with milk. The doctor said it was fine to add chocolate as long as we brush her teeth and she drinks it great. Don't give up. It took a while, but we just gave it to her with every meal and she likes it now and will even tolerate regular milk.
These are such cute pictures of his big day, what a cute little guy! We are so glad we got to celebrate his birthday with him. It sure was wonderful to have you all here for the holiday, I sure love my family!
What a cutie! Happy Birthday little Dax
Happy Happy Birthday Daxton!! What an amazing cake! I love him in his little tie :)
Milk...Hudson had some time adjusting to it, but I think mostly it was the tempature of it. Try it at several temps, but don't give in...he will learn that is now his substance. I think Hudson did better when breast milk was totally out, then there wasn't a "different" taste to compare to. Good luck :)
It's hard to believe that a year has already gone by! Little man is getting so big! Happy Birthday Dax!
