YAY!  We finally made it to the big numero uno!  We had a small, but very special birthday party here at the house.  The family and some local friends helped make it a success!  Here are a few pictures:



 Joel is 13 mos. old now and is almost walking..  He stands unsupported and will take a few steps then fall down so is just a matter of time!  He has 8 teeth and is starting to self feed...well at least he likes to hold the spoon while I'm feeding him..  He is eating a wide variety of foods including salmon!  He is quite verbal and knows several words including mama, dada (of course), up, dog, kitty, ball, bear..  Also, he is finally starting to wave!  We are so proud of our little toddler, but are wondering where our baby went!  I always heard that they grow so fast, but never really understood until now...is soo- true!  Here are some more pics from over the holidays:



Oh, I almost forgot!  Joel had his first snow experience...he wasn't too fond...here is the video:
