Oh the cuteness! You won't be able to stand it!
Pictures from his first year that are some of my many favorites...

We went to a museum (along with millions of other small children) since it was their "free" day. Grandma, Grandpa, and lots of cousins joined us for the fun-filled two hours. Lots of pictures were taken, but I'm only including Reuben's because... because it IS his birthday!
He has been learning to do so many cute 1 year old things. He says "DaDa" whenever he is around the computer (thanks to skype!). He pushes his head on the ground and crawls when he is tired. He has taken 13 steps at a time, so we know that running is coming soon. He climbs on everything he can (yay, another climber...). He knows how to blow zurberts on bellies and will glance up beforehand to make sure we're ready to laugh. He waves goodbye. He doesn't suck his fingers anymore, he gave that up about a month ago for no good reason that I can think of besides a small boo-boo on his finger. That was the most painless un-finger-sucking experience we've ever had with our kids. He sleeps almost all the way through the night, feeds at 5:30 or so and goes back to sleep... (This comes after a month of fervent prayers and fasting from the other children in the family). He climbs stairs, and backs down. He eats everything I offer him, and some things that I don't. He loved his cake tonight, a frozen raspberry yogurt pie with graham cracker crust. Mmmm. To summarize, we love this cute baby/big boy!
Happy Birthday Reuben!!!
