Wow! Can't believe we finally made it to the 1 year mark! It felt like it went by so slowly day to day...yet the overall feel is so fast! Not sure if you know what I mean.
We had a birthday celebration the day after his bday! It was hard scheduling between his naps and also coordinating with his friend who we were doing a joint bday party with..but overall it was fun to see the other pandemic babies born around same time and other friends. The theme was "ocean" so I made a lot of ocean themed food items.
We also did this traditional 1st bday game of picking a future career. Guess what Baobao picked? These were the choices:
Spatula - cook
Stethoscope - medicine
Paintbrush - artist
Pen - writer
Masquerade Mask - actor
Mouse - programmer
Medal award - athlete
Mini bible - minister
Tape measure - engineer/architect
Screwdriver - mechanic
Flag - politician
Test tube-scientist
Planet ball- astronaut
Sheep - vet
Piano pedal- music
Calculator - finance
Haha who would have thought he picked the mouse. And the second time, the flag! We tried to pick items he hadn't seen before. But I think he may have seen someone use a mouse before..and on our nightly walks, I always point out the neighborhood flags (although the item in the game was a small Lesotho flag).
It was fun seeing Baobao walk around (most of the other babies were still crawling or immobile). Everyone was super impressed how much Baobao walked! He was even trying to run away from his own party. There was some grabbing/stealing of toys, but overall pretty well behaved! He's really grown so much over this past year!
