Porter is 1

Happy Birthday Porter!!

Weight- 18 lbs 10 oz Height- 29 1/2 in.
Porter is eating 3 meals a day and drinking from a sippy cup. He takes 2 naps a day. One 3 hour nap in the morning and then an hour nap in the afternoon. He goes to bed between 8-9 at night and wakes up at 7 in the morning. We love to wake up to his little jabbers in the other room.
He is getting his 7th tooth. He has 3 on the bottom and 4 on the top.
One of his favorite things to play with is his stuffed animal "Hop on Pop" from the Dr. Seuss book his Aunt Alida gave it to him. It is so cute to watch him grab it and the first thing he does with it is give it a big hug and just cuddle with it. He also likes toy cars that he pushes around, balls that he is beginning to throw, remotes, phones, and of course anything else that he shouldn't have.
Porter is starting to stand on his own for minutes at a time, but has no desire to take a step. When we practiced with him last week by having him walk between Terry and I , he took 3 steps on his own. I think that he will be walking very soon.

Some of Porter's favorite things to do are taking baths, playing outside, and going for walks in the stroller. He loves music and will dance anytime. He also likes to do the hand actions to the alligator song.

His favorite foods are bananas, macaroni and cheese, cheerios, bread and crackers of all varieties.
