Our baby turned one on Monday, October 3rd. I cannot believe it has already been a year since he was born! Ely has been a wonderful baby and is so much fun. He has tons of personality. Ely started walking last month and now there is no stopping him! Ely can say mama and dada, and uh-oh. He weaned himself from breastmilk last week and is now drinking whole milk. Ely likes to eat most things. Usually he wants whatever we are eating or drinking. Ely loves to play with his big sister, Eva, and she is pretty good about playing with him, too. She loves him! 
Ely was born on 10/3/10. He weighed 8 pounds 9 ounces. He was 21 1/2 inches long. At one year, Ely now weighs 22 pounds 5 ounces. He is 29 1/4 inches long.

She is going to be 4 next month. She weighs 40.25 pounds and is 41 1/2 inches tall. She is in the 90th percentile for height.
For Ely's birthday we had lots of fun. We went to the ISU Homecoming parade and to the football game. 
Aunt McKenzie made adorable monkey cakes for Ely. They turned out so cute!
Ely and his cake...looks like he's not too sure about eating it.
How about with some milk
Try the spoon, maybe he doesn't like the squishy feeling in his hands. 
What a day!! Isn't he just adorable?
We had lots of family come for the party (36 people there altogether!!). Ely had lots of fun opening his presents and just loves his new toys!
Thank you to everyone who came to spend time with us and celebrate Ely's first birthday. It was so much fun!!

Thanks for having such a fun party Ely! You are a cutie! Love you, Grandma
Crazy how fast they grow! I ran into your sis in law Hollie in Target the other day. I was really suprised that she recognized me. We'll have to get together the next time we are in town.
Happy birthday Ely! Yes, he is adorable.
How did Eva get to be tall??
