Drew turns one

We just celebrated Drew's first birthday, and I feel I should give him some helpful advice. Slow down! As Newton's first law of motion states: an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Unfortunately, that "force" is the coffee table, the floor, the wall... Drew is agile enough to get up and get moving quite easily. I'm impressed with how quickly his skills develop - he not only walks and runs, but dances (Elvis-style pelvic thrusts!) and carries his favorite cars from one place to another. The only problem is once that momentum increases, disaster looms nearby.

On another note, he had his first taste of cake this past week! I think he liked it :)

Drew couldn't get enough of the sweet sugary icing. He wasn't quite sure what to do with the cake, but clapping his hands together and squishing the cake between his fingers was fun. It seems more cake made it onto his face and high chair than his belly. Quite a mess, but so entertaining!
