This month, like all the rest, has been filled with changes for our little man. He has taken his first steps and can stand without support for up to a minute. Charlie is becoming more and more vocal. We haven't heard the first official word yet, but he baby talks to himself and us non-stop. The other day, he picked up a book and started babbling and turning the pages as if he was reading it out loud. He is also figuring out all of his toys. Nick and I don't have to show him how something works. It is so neat watching him concentrate and problem solve until he figures out how to do something.
As Charlie's birthday approached, I could not help thinking back on this time last year...Nick and I counting the days until my due date...daydreaming about what Charlie would look like...going into labor...seeing my son for the first time. It seems so surreal now. I knew that our lives would change once Charlie was born, but I never imagined just how much. He has brought so much love, purpose, and peace into our lives. Nick and I are forever grateful for our son, and we could not love him more. Happy 1st Birthday, Baby!!!
