Lachlan at almost 13 months.....for the record

- Walks everywhere! Even tries to run sometimes :) He loves being on his feet.
- Gives kisses
- Gets REALLY excited when playing with balls
- Still wakes up once a night (around 3)
- Says 'this' when pointing at things he wants
- Says a few more words. Some words he is trying to copy what we say, like 'teddy bear' and 'dear Jesus' - very cute. All the words I can think of that he says at the moment are: mum, dad, dee (birdie), ta, cheese, teddy bear, dear Jesus, brrmmm (not a word, I know! but it means 'car' :) ), has said 'pop' once, that's all for now.
- Eats lots and loves meat and yoghurt - not together.
- Is changing from two 2 hour sleeps to maybe one 3 hour sleep a day.
- LOVES books.

Arrrrrrrrrrr

On Saturday night we went to a 'princess and pirate' party. Here are the two most handsome pirates around.......

Aunty Vicki

Lachlan actually has 3 Aunty Vicki's! But one of his Aunty Vicki's made this beautiful quilt and gave it to us for Lachlan.

She has been asked to display it as part of a study done on quilting. It is ALL hand quilted!!!!!!

THANK YOU AUNTY VICKI!

Lachlan's First Birthday!!!!!

Last Sunday was Lachlan's first birthday!

In the morning, we gave Lachlan his little birthday present, and headed off to church.

After church, we celebrated with family and some friends. Lachlan was quite oblivious to everything that happened, but enjoyed having so many people around.

Here are a few pictures from the big day!

Lachlan and Jonathan - first thing Sunday morning (cant you tell!)
