One year check-up

Landon had his one year check-up this morning. He measured 30 1/8" (75%) and weighs 21 lbs-8 oz (40%)! "Dr. Gibson asked if he was walking yet and Ben said "yes". She was so excited and wanted to see him walk that she went on the other side of the room with him, as he was screaming his head off, and put him down and he took off quickly to Ben. She said "yeah, he's been walking for a while".   

YAY! We are so excited that we get to move his car seat to forward facing:) Thank goodness, because his feet have been touching the seat for months. 

Poor guy also had to get three shots:( 

He's very healthy and growing like a bad weed.

New milestones:

• Walking

• Claps his hands

• Waves (hi and bye)

• Puts his arms in the air when he's done eating or whenever we say "all done"

• Drinks from a straw

• Very weary of strangers

• Has 8 teeth

Here's a picture I got of him putting his arms up when we say "all done".

Landon's Birthday Party

Tonight we had Landon's 1st birthday party. He did extremely well for only having one nap. He was into opening the gifts, but from the pictures it looks like it was Lukas' birthday. We decided to open the gifts first because we didn't know how messy he was going to get from the smash cake...and, as you'll see he got VERY messy! He enjoyed playing in the cake for 5 minutes then all of a sudden he had enough. Shortly after the cake smashing, he went down for a little nap. He got a lot of nice gifts...Thanks Everyone!!

Happy 1st Birthday!

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday dear Landon...
Happy Birthday to you!





We can't believe that Landon is one already! The time sure did fly by. It seems like yesterday we were on our way to West Penn for his delivery. Here are two of our favorite pictures on this day last year.

1st Haircut!

Happy Valentine's Day! 

We hope everyone had a great day.

We took Landon to get his first haircut this morning. He did really well without fussing at all. He looks so handsome with his new cut and his hair doesn't get in his eyes anymore. I made sure they gave me his locks to save and I got really great pics. 

Afterwards, we went and ordered his birthday cake and smash cake for his party next Saturday. 

I can't believe our baby is going to be "one" in five days!

Out and About

Today we had an appointment to do our income taxes. So, since everyone is feeling better, we decided to make a day out of it. We headed to Greensburg to go the Westmoreland Mall, Sam's Club, Pets Mart, Gander Mt., and to have an early dinner at the Texas Roadhouse. Landon's getting great about eating out and didn't fuss at all while we were there. While we were at the mall, the boys were riding on small rides. 

Also, Landon has been walking around the house the last two weeks and is getting really good. It's funny how fast he can walk when he sees someone with food. I dug out Lukas' first pair of "stride rite" shoes. They have some scuff marks on them and now Landon will add to them! This will definitely be one of our keepsakes:)

Bleeding Black & Gold

WooHoo...we are so stoked the Steelers won the Super Bowl!!

Since the boys were sick, we decided just to have our own little party. I made ham bbq sandwiches, cheesy potatoes and a veggie tray. Landon slept most of the game, but we kept waking him up with the yelling and screaming. What a great game...WAY TO GO STEELERS!
