Our little baby is ONE.
I know it’s cliche – but wow did a year ever go fast! I remember when Phoenix turned one and he seemed like such a big boy. I can definitely say that this time around, having a 3 and a half year old at home to compare to and Cruz still feels like a baby.
He started walking just a few days before his birthday. A couple months later than his older brother, but we would not have been ready any sooner. We’ve had the sweetest year as a family of four. Cruz has fit right in and looking back on a year ago, it’s crazy to think we were ever worried about adding to our family. Phoenix adores his little brother and Cruz is equally entertained by him.
Cruz loved his birthday cake (almost as much as Phoenix did). All day long, Phoenix was raving about how “This is the BEST birthday EVER!”. Which was really quite adorable considering we didn’t plan much for it. Kids birthday parties can be as extensive as wedding planning these days and we are glad we decided to have an intimate little celebration instead. Neither of them cared either way. We had cake, balloons and presents – and they were certainly pleased. Luckily, Cruz didn’t seem to mind that Phoenix opened up all of his presents.
