Brooks Richard is 1 year old!
I feel as though I blinked and my little baby is grown up.

Brooks - newborn
At 1 year old, Brooks is crawling at super sonic speed, pulling himself up to standing, opening every cupboard door and drawer, sneaking dog food with every chance he gets, knocking over chairs, pulling at the Christmas tree, and leaving a trail of chaos everywhere he goes.
He LOVES to play catch, push cars and trucks, wrestle Daddy and Bennett, play fetch with the dogs, and cuddle with Marie and Mommy.
Brooks - 6 months
He is the sweetest baby boy.
He smiles more than any other child I have ever known.
I know I have said this before, but people stop us in public to comment on his smile and sweetness every day.
He likes books but he wants to be the one in charge with them...making it difficult to read the whole thing in one setting. He is starting to use his little pointer finger and copy when we point to things in the story.
He drinks from a sippy cup and has handled his food transitions very well. I'm pretty sure he likes almost every kind of food we have ever given him.
He sleeps well and enjoys cuddling with his blanket.
Brooks - 1 Year
Brooks has discovered his voice - mama, dada, nono, hi, and all duh (all done).
He has also discovered his angry little growl when we have the audacity to make him stop moving and get his clothes or pajamas on! This temper is something I secretly adore because it only comes out every so often and it reminds me of his little fighting spirit that we saw when he was so sick in the hospital at 5 weeks old.
Our family feels complete with Brooks in it and we are so thankful God chose him for us!
