James had a pretty fun day. He got to play with mom all morning, then in the afternoon we went to the toy store with his friend Jake. Jake wanted to pick out a toy for James and got him some stacking cups. James loves them! James also got a new car seat for his birthday. He looks like such a big boy sitting in his big boy seat. He loves to be able to watch mom and dad while we are in the car.
When dad got home from work we ate dinner and then James got to have his cake! He didn't really know what to do at first and just looked at it. Then he started picking little pieces off and eating them. He never really dug in like we thought he would but he still got pretty messy. I have a really cute video of when he first started eating the cake but I guess it is too long to upload. So if you want to see it you have to come visit! 
After cake he had a bath which is his favorite thing in the world. We can't keep him out of the tub once he hears the water turn on. He plays until well after the water turns cold. Today we went to the doctor. He weighs 20 lbs 13 oz. Still in the 25th percentile but big enough for his big boy car seat so that's ok. He is 30 in tall which is still in the 75th percentile. He is now allowed to eat whatever he wants, including peanut butter, and honey. So for dinner he had a PBJ sandwhich. He didn't eat much, just sucked on the bread and then fed the rest to the dog. She also suggested putting a little chocolate in his milk to get him to drink more. It has been so hard to get him to drink anything. She says that he probably needs about 20 oz of liquid a day and we are struggling to get him to dring 12-15.
