I can't believe my sweet baby boy is one year old today. The time has gone by so quickly. We've had a lot of rough times this past year but this little guy has always brought us joy and reminded us how truly blessed we are. 
He started out so little and now he is wearing 24 month clothes at only 12 months old. Don't let his size fool you though, he is the sweetest little cuddle bug ever. He loves to snuggle and cuddle and give loves; he is SO affectionate. He is a very happy boy. Whenever we go out we get comments on what a good, happy baby he is.
He also loves to tease his sister. How they learn so young that they're supposed to bug their siblings is beyond me!
He LOVES to eat (that's probably pretty obvious if you've ever seen his cheeks & thighs). His favorite foods are: cheese, meat sticks, mandarin oranges, rice cakes, bananas, spinach ravioli, rib bones, pretzels, cheerios, of course his new favorites cake & ice cream...hmmm, this may be easier if I list what he doesn't like: corn (he always spits it back out) and I think that's about it!
His nicknames at the moment are: bobo, Urbie, Urbster, Urbanski, Urbski, monster, bugga boo, sweet boy, little man, big sir, mister man, snicker doodle, snickel fritz. Really it's a wonder that the poor boy even knows what his actual name is!
We had his birthday party on Friday and it was so nice because both of his grandmas and 
grandpas got to be here for it as well as some of his cousins. We did a fishing theme for his party so there were lots of worms & fish (gummy worms and gold fish crackers that is) as well as fish shaped grilled cheese sandwiches which were surprisingly a huge hit among the kiddos & adults (I think we all must have been very hungry).
It was so much fun to watch Urban eat his first piece of cake. I totally thought he would just devour it in seconds but he was actually unsure what to do with it for a little while. He just kind of looked at it for a while and poked his finger in it before he finally discovered it's yummy goodness and chowed down.
His party was a ton of fun. Thank you so much to everyone who shared it with us.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY URBAN CLAUDE, WE LOVE YOU!!!

Happy Birthday :)
Happy Birthday (late!) What a fu day. I remember last year when you were rushed to the hospital to later find out that your were probably having labor pains, but didn't know what labor felt like:o) Then, when we went to see you we had to turn off the football game because it was stressing you out...lol That nurse would have never made it in Texas.
What a great day and what a beautiful and sweet baby he was. I am glad to know that, like Addison, he is a much easier toddler than newborn.
He is such a cute one year old, and the best is only yet to come!
Happy birthday "what's his name".
PS.. I LOVE the name Urban and am so glad that you used it....someone needed to.
