He's 1 year! (well 13 months now cause I'm a horrible blogger)

Wow...we have been busy! September 8th William turned one, September 13-25 we visited Edna because Lee was in The Netherlands for work, we're in the process of selling our house and looking for a new one, and Oct 7th we found out we're having ANOTHER BOY!

Celebrating William's birthday was a blast....we may have overdone it a bit with three parties but he had such a good time. We celebrated in August with Hudson Bettis who is 3 weeks older than William, then we had a party at our house with some of William's best friends from Houston then a small family gathering on his actual birthday. He did not get tired of the cake! He was hilarious...pics to follow of course.

He is so much fun...I'm going to tell you what he's doing right now so I can go back later and reminisce. He was in the 95th % for height at his one year and 85th for weight. He started walking at 10 1/2 months and got really good at it at 11...now he's practically running. Kinda scary. He thinks mocking me is the most hilarious thing in the world. He copies my sneezes, coughs, laughs and everytime I say "Hey William!" he says "Heeyyy." His favorite words are cat, hi, ball, bye bye, dada, oh wow, woah, only mama when he's upset, and some weird phrases that I don't understand like "Oh gawa" and "Cha Sta" Anybody got any guesses? Oh, he has also become obsessed with his books and will point and say "huh" until you find the exact one he wants you to read to him. He's so precious and so much fun. We love him so much.

Here are some pics!
