Hicks Household: June 2013

I truly can't believe it has been a year! Nolan is growing and learning new things each day, and it is so fun to see. He was in the 99% for height at his yearly checkup and 54% for weight. Needless to say, I am trying to fatten him up a bit ;) Nolan also had another ear infection at his year check-up (this makes 9), so we had to meet with an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor. Nolan is scheduled to get tubes in his ears at the end of the week (June 28th). I was originally opposed to having the surgery, as they have to put him under general anesthesia. However, after researching the topic and speaking to the specialist, it is definitely the way to go! So, please pray that things go smoothly, and I'm sure he will have a speedy recovery. :)

On a more positive note, Nolan had an amazing first birthday! The weather was a little cool up here, but it turned out great. One thing is for sure.... NOLAN IS SPOILED!! We are so grateful and blessed to have such wonderful family and friends in our lives. Nolan loved seeing everyone that was able to attend his party and has had fun playing with all his new toys and gifts. I think Bromley was a little jealous, but we treated him to a Pup Cup from Dairy Queen, and I think that made things better. ;)

Last, but certainly not least, Nolan will become an older brother in December!! We are all very excited about the addition, and Nolan can't wait to get a little brother or sister. He will be such a great big bro!

Here are some pictures over the past few months:
