Brennen Michael is 1

I can't believe Brennen is already 1. Where has the year gone?!?! We have had many ups and downs this past year, but I can't imagine life or my family without Brennen in it! He is such a happy baby and LOVES his momma (which I love). Don't get me wrong, I like my kids to be independent, but at the end of the day if they want to snuggle up with me, I'll take it!

A few days before his birthday, he woke up from a nap collapsing. I thought perhaps his brain tumors were back and I freaked out. I had my mom come from work to look at him. Every time I sat him down, he would fall back. When he attempted to crawl, he would fall forward. I took him to the doctor right away. They said he had a severe ear infection in his left ear and put him on heavy duty antibiotics. He is still slightly fussier than normal, but doing well, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

On his actual birthday (the day before Thanksgiving), Emmersyn had surgery to put tubes in her ears and drain fluid out. Emmerysn and I were home about the time he woke up and I doubt he cared!

At 1 stats:
you weigh 26lbs 8oz.  I will get your height tomorrow at the doctor, but I'm thinking you're a tall boy
you wear a size 4 diaper
you wear size 12 or 12-18mn clothes and jammies. Pants are usually 12 and onsies are 18mn
you LOVE food and eat about anything
you still take 2 naps a day and sleep about 1.5-2hrs per nap
you go to bed at 8-8:30 at night and sleep til 7 usually (still wake up once or twice though)
you are walking a few steps at a time
you HATE to wear shoes and socks and undresss in the car
you had so much hair we've cut and trimmed it a ton and it's still super thick
you LOVE your sisters and light up when they talk to you
you have 3 teeth in and one popping through

Brennen Michael: You have surprised mommy from the start and continue to surprise me everyday. I love you!
