You Know You Have a 1 Year Old When...

A friend of mine originally posted something like this.  I adapted it for our little one year old.  

You Know You Have a 1 Year Old When . . .  

- there is more food on the floor than on the table



- you can't see out your windows because there are so many sticky finger prints on them

- they are always at the door crying because they want to go outside all day long

- if you need some toilet paper you get it from a big pile on the floor instead of from a roll

- messes are being made faster than you can clean them up



- you try to keep the toliet lids down and bathroom doors shut at all times

- at bathtime, there is more water on the floor and walls than in the tub

- you can't load the dishwasher without a little one trying to climb in it

- you have little helping hands all the time

- you say the word 'no' way more than you would like to admit


but it's all worth it because:

- you get the best hugs and kisses in the world
- always have a little friend to keep you company
- are number 1 to somebody
- get to giggle, tickle, and wrestle
- you snuggle up to read a book with a little warm body for a blanket
- their smile or laugh melts your heart
- they have so much energy they keep you going even when you're down
- they remind you to enjoy life as they get excited over the smallest little thing
- they can cheer up a grumpy 12 year old just by looking at him
- they need you and you need them


We love this little girl!

  1. You changed your blog look, it's cute! I like it :) This is such a fun post. All of this looks so familiar. But my pictures still don't always turn out as awesome. Next time we're in Boise for a while we'll have to bunk at your place so you can help me play around with our camera some more.
