Happy Birthday

Grayden turned 1 yr old on Wednesday. I have no idea where the year went. It's been awesome to see him grow and change into the good natured little cuddle butt that he is. He has learned to go up and down the steps by himself, say mama and dada, drop balls into his giraffe ball game, and he has also learned to be much gentler to the kitty cats. He loves, bananas, sweet potatoes and veggies & pasta with sauce. He loves chasing the cats around, making echos in the hallway, splashing in the bathtub, and scurrying away once the diaper comes off. He also really loves tushy tickle time, which involves him frantically crawling around the bed while mommy tries to pinch his tushy.

For his birthday on Wednesday we all went to the zoo. Daddy tried hard to point out the monkeys to Grayden, but Gray was much more interested in making kissy faces at the zoo volunteers. He enjoyed the warm day walking around the zoo, the prairie dogs poking their heads out and chirping, the very tall giraffes and the bear that swam back and forth right in front of the glass.

Saturday we will have his birthday party, though I am not too sure that he will know the party is for him. The theme is Big Top Circus, which involves decorations with Ring Masters, lions, seals & some pretty creepy looking cupcake topers shaped like clown heads.

Stats: He is 32" long and weighs 23lbs 10oz. And he's super cute, that's a fact.
