My Little Baby

My little baby is growing up too fast! He will be one on Tuesday and I just can't believe how fast this year has flown by! We had his one year pictures taken at the Arboretum this past weekend and we can't wait to see how they all turned out. I've added a couple that she sent us as a "sneak peak". He just looks so big!!!

He has had some big changes this past week. He is now officially bottle and formula free----I could just cry! We took him to the doctor last week for an ear infection and they told us since he would be one so soon to go ahead and start the weaning process to whole milk and sippy cups. The first day did not go so well but the whole process took less than a week. He did not like the taste of whole milk at first so we had to mix it with formula. We have been reducing the amount of formula each day and as of this morning he is taking the whole milk with no formula just fine :) He hasn't had a bottle in 2 days so the sippy cup went over well too :)

Dear Cason,
Stop growing up so fast!

Love, Mommy
