We're still waiting for that call...really hoping it comes any day now. I'm starting to get a little jumpy when my phone rings.
Thankfully it has been one of those months where it seems like we have something going on everyday. It's nice to have Bible studies, Mops, Mom & Me, Wednesday night church, and errands to run to help keep me busy. And, good friends of ours will be bringing home their precious little girl from the DRC soon. I can't wait to meet her! :)
Not too much else to say about waiting this month. We'll just keep praying for our little one. :)

Jude's 1st Birthday Party
We celebrated Jude's first birthday with family at our house. He had an "African Safari" party and enjoyed eating lots of icing from his first slice of cake. Jude had so much fun opening presents and chasing his cousins. Here are some pictures!

{Judah} 12 Months (1 Year!) Old
This has been the fastest, most memorable, and best year I have ever had. I cannot believe how quickly it has gone by, but I also can't imagine life without my little Judah!
At 12 months, Judah is very busy all day long. Our days usually look something like this: (Recording so I don't forget someday...)
*wake up around 7:00
*nap #1 around 9:30-11:00
*afternoon is for playtime and running errands
*nap #2 around 2:30-4:00
*bedtime around 8:00
He is still not walking by himself yet, but is getting really good at pushing around a walker and cruising the furniture. He did take about 3 steps the day of his birthday party so I think he's really close!
We have started whole milk and it's going OK. He will drink little bits at a time with his meal, but isn't a big fan yet.
Jude is also fascinated with buttons on clothes, likes to bang pots and pans, and likes to look through books...especially books with flaps that open and pictures underneath.
At his 12 month check-up, we saw that Jude is 31.5 inches long and weighs 24 pounds!
He is starting to talk and babble a lot more. Jude can definitely say mama, dada, and yells "hi Bah" (hi Belle) to our cat. It's fun to hear him chattering to himself in his crib or while he's playing.
Highlights of the month were going to his first Pumpkin Festival and celebrating his cousin Penelope's 1st birthday!
Jude was entered in the Precious Pumpkin Baby contest, along with about 60 other babies from our town. He did not win, but it was fun to see his picture up at the grocery store that week.
This sweet girl also turned 1 three days before Jude. Love my little nieces!

Walking to the festival with Daddy
with one of his favorite people, Penelope!
Yum! First taste of pumpkin ice cream
First carnival ride with his buds...Jude wasn't too happy until the cars started moving.
We love the P-Fest!

My baby is a year old!
