To my Judebug:

What a great year, buddy!

You're the sweetest, smartest, cutest, handsomest little boy I have ever met.

I love how you give me hugs and kisses.

I love how if I'm sitting on the floor you run up from behind me and 'get me'.

I love how you look in cabinets and take everything out.

I love how you hide our remotes.

I love how you watch the pups on tv.

I love how you tell me if that very sad adopt an animal commercial comes on tv.

I love how you move the curtain in your room to look outside when you're supposed to be taking a nap (I can spy on you, you know).

I love how you make an 'aaaaaaawwwww' noise when giving someone (or something) love.

I love how when you wake up in the mornings you never cry, but instead let me ease into the day by listening to you play in your crib.

I love how you run around the house with your sippy and spill it everywhere even though they are 'no spill' sippies.

I sort of love how you run around saying 'daaaaaaaa-deeee', but secretly wish it was 'mommmmmyyy'

I love how you love music and try to sing to your favorite song, "Little Sir Echo".

I love how you bring me shoes to put on, even if you're already wearing some.

I love how you're even saying the word shoes, because it lets me know you are for sure my son (not that there was any doubt....a girl doesn't forget that sort of day)

I love how you mow the yard with me.

I love how you splash in the bath and kick kick in the wa-wa.

I love how you already understand my facial expressions....and even make some of your own in response.

I love how you babble back to me like we're having a real conversation.

I love how you stand on the air vent to cool off.

I love how you can't get enough of vaccuums (this will come in handy later).

I love how you look under the foot stool and couch to find your toys.

I love how you flirt when an old lady tells you you're cute when we're shopping.

I love how you're so adventurous.

I love how you're so happy.

I love how you're so silly.  

I love how you already have the most dynamic personality.

But mostly, I love how perfect you are for us!

Thank you for being you!

Happy 1st Birthday

PS.  Totally crying right now.
