Little Mark turned 1!

My baby boy turned 1 so time for some pictures!  These were taken in the basement and Mark just kept trying to crawl away.  He thinks he's pretty funny.  

He's cruising and starting to get brave.  He's starting to stand up in the middle of the room.  He doesn't say a whole lot, just Mama and Dada.  He's pretty good natured but does like to bite!  Not maliciously but in a love-bite type of way.  Regardless, I've been left with a few bruises because of his rough, affectionate way.  He just laughs and thinks it's funny.

Overall, he's pretty sweet.  He'll snuggle his head into my face in the morning.  Then lean over to Merril and snuggle into his head.  Yep, we love him.

Birthdays mean cake too!  We never could get Mark to blow out a candle but the other 4 did and then we ate cupcakes.  

The kids made him a card.  Mikayla's just in panties because that's how she is lately.  She still makes a lot of puddles but we're just keeping in light and she seems excited about going to the bathroom.  We'll keep encouraging and I'm sure she'll get it eventually.

 Yum!

Grandpa Mark and Uncle Justin have birthdays in October so we had more cake and pie later that weekend.
