Happy Birthday to Drew!

I can't believe it's been a year since Drew was born!

I baked him a chocolate cake for his birthday yesterday, but in the afternoon, I could tell he wasn't quite his fun self, so we decided to have cake early in case he crashed super early or something. He definitely looks out of it in all of these pictures we took yesterday on his birthday. He had a snotty nose, but I don't think he was really sick, maybe just really tired?

Clare went to a friend's birthday party earlier in the day without mommy and daddy. The face paint is about halfway rubbed off in these photos.



Not as messy as we expected...

Earlier yesterday...

I was going to start weaning Drew from breastfeeding just after his first birthday, but he decided rather abruptly that he was finished a few days ago. I figured if he was so ready to be a big boy, we should try to ditch bottles too. I'm not sure how well it's going. He isn't drinking much milk, whether it's in a bottle or sippy cup. I'm making sure he's getting yogurt and water to make up for what he might be missing. To be honest, I feel kind of confused about the whole situation at the moment.


It's so cute how well Clare and Drew play together. They both really like to play in the bathtub.
