He's ONE!

Today our sweet, adorable little man is ONE! One year ago today we held our living, breathing redemption baby boy in our arms as we cried tears of joy and relief. He was born alive and healthy and we are thankful for every second we've been given with him. It hasn't always been easy but next to being Greg's wife, there has been no greater joy in my life than being Eli's mom. So grateful for this journey of parenthood with him.

We had his twelve month well baby check-up today. Eli is now 30 inches long but he's still only 23.3 pounds (he's been around that weight for many months). Their computers were broken but I looked up online and I think he's in the 50th percentile for his head circumference, 75th for weight, and 75th for height... so fairly evenly spread out! Here's a few of the photos from our monthly photo shoot just now:

I know I'm biased... but man, this kid is adorable!
