Belated Birthday Photos

Sorry it's taken so long to get first birthday photos up. It's hard to believe this photo on the left was Nic one year ago, not even 2 lbs. The syringe next to him shows you the comparision in size. We are so thankful for all he has overcome this year. He is such a joy in our lives.

We celebrated Nic's birthday on the day and then also when Grandpa George and Grandma Nancy came to visit that weekend. Grandma Sheila and some friends were able to join us for the celebration. Nic shared his red velvet cake with Grandpa George, since Grandpa got to pick his birthday this year. Nic didn't like the cake nearly as much as his grandpa does. You would have thought we'd fed him pickles! I guess it's good that he doesn't have much of a sweet tooth yet, except for sweet potatoes. He certainly won't have to fight my dad for those. Nic weighed nearly 19 pounds at his first birthday. He loved all his presents, but still was perfectly happy having just the paper they came in to play with as well.
