April Crafts and Cards

I am really loving the svg files from svgcuts.com. Here are some of the crafts and cards I made this month.

Here is one of the cards I made from the Everyday Cards SVG Kit

Here is a card I made for my sister-in-law who had twins a couple of weeks ago.

Spencer's 1st Birthday!

My baby turned 1 this past Friday and I can't believe how fast this past year has gone.  Today Spencer had his 1 year check up and he is growing quite well.  He weighs 21.8 lbs (35th percentile) and he is 32.5 inches long (98th percentile).  I can't believe how long he is. 


Other 12 month stats and fun facts:
- He can say mama, dada, and tries to say uh oh (he loves to throw his binkie and say it)
- He can get up to a standing position and walks along furniture
- He loves crawling up the stairs (he is still learning how to come back down)
- He still takes 2 naps - he sometimes fights his morning nap but he's not ready to drop it
- He does this excited dance while in his high chair when he sees food he really likes (like a grilled cheese sandwich).
- He still loves to cuddle.

For his first birthday we had an owl themed party

 
Owl birthday invitation - the wings opened and closed

 Birthday banner - I had a picture for each month of his life plus the day he was born


I also made a small banner for his high chair

He wasn't very impressed with his cake.  I think he would have rather had a cookie.
