A toddler?!... Seriously?

On Saturday April the 7th at 2:56am, after 8 full hrs of labour, a handsome little boy was born.  365 days and counting later Khyrum Drake is now a YEAR old!  Can you even imagine that? Me neither and I've watched him grow everyday since. Its pretty bitter sweet that he's gotten so big. I mean, not only does he reject my cuddles because he thinks he's too grown for that, but we now have to be more conscious of our diet decisions cause he wants and eats everything that we do.

But besides him being so demanding like a grown man, We have been fortunate enough to enjoy a really fun and outgoing little boy. Now that he is a year old he has been:

* Walking for a good while now.
* Eats almost everything. ( have'nt tried him with nuts or tuna fish yet)
* Can handle spicy foods and drinks whole cows milk
* Talks, but its mostly gibberish
* Can sign more, please, thank you and milk

And many more things that I won't brag about...

We had a little birthday family dinner for him. We didn't wanna go too crazy on a birthday he will never remember, but we did snap when it came to the birthday cake...

Shout out to Khyrum's Birthday twin Maishaah!

He has so much personailty and he is ridiculously loving. A total momma's boy but is definitely a sucker for his dada.


 He can be mischevious, always getting into stuff no matter how much you tell him no.
 He is multi-talented
 Charming and Adorable

Oh how we L.O.V.E our ...

  There you have it. This is the reason why I am so mushy and have become a major nurturer these days. He makes me want to be a better person daily. I look forward to many more years with this kid. Sometimes its hard to imagine me with another baby. All I want is my baby boy!
