One year ago today, at 12:40pm, an 8 pound 4 ounce, 20.5 inch long baby was born. We named him Jack Griffin Norred and he is one of the lights of my life. How has the time gone by so fast? Jack likes pizza, french fries, ice cream and baby food macaroni and cheese. He loves toys that talk or sing/make music. He loves banging toys together or on tables. He just switched over from formula to whole milk and is a LOVER of chocolate milk! Jack has the craziest curly red hair and we still get lots of comments and compliments about it. He's still not walking on his own, but he can cruise furniture pretty fast. He can crawl up the stairs pretty good, too.
We went today to get Jack's one year portraits done. Igot a pretty cute Christmas card picture, too. For lunch we met up with Aunt Bliss and cousins Carter and Brooke at Chick Fil A. Brandon and Carter had a great time together. In the evening we decided to go out to dinner for Jack's birthday and got a call from my mother-in-law, Donna, saying that some of the Norred clan was in town. We ended up meeting Donna, Courtney, Natalie, Emily, Bliss, Carter and Brooke for dinner. The kids had a blast. It was fun seeing Bliss and the kids so much in one day.
All in all, Jack had a great birthday today! Thanks for coming to his party, thanks for the phone calls and emails. It means so much to have so many people remember my baby on his special day. This has been a hard birthday on mommy, and a tough week for us in general for us as a family.
Also, Abbie is not out of the woods just yet, so say a little prayer for her that she gets better soon. Brandon would be crushed if something were to happen to her. Thanks.
