Feliz Compleanos a ti

ONE! Wow! Our little Grey turned ONE today! At 6:35 a.m. last year, Greyson Michael Martin arrived. What an amazing year it has been! Here's the short story on our little boy:

*Greyson is a very HAPPY baby. Mike and I were talking the other day and we were wondering how he stays so happy all of the time. He falls, he gets back up and smiles. Even when he's sick, he's still a laughing machine.

*Greyson is a very active boy. He took his first steps in his 10th month and walks everywhere.

*Greyson loves to eat. Some of his favorites are: watermelon, bananas, grapes, Gerber pasta pick-ups, Gerber stars, cranberry roast, chicken, peaches, pears, peas, carrots, YoBaby yogurt (he actually laughs hysterically when you pull this out of the fridge). Some of his NOT so favorites are: Gerber weenies, and avocado (I know! So sad. We are working on this one!). I'm sure there are a few more, I just can't think of them right now.


*Greyson loves anything outdoors. He loves collecting. Acorns, rocks, sticks, you name it! Oh no, Daddy and I are in for a treat. Add one more pack-rat to the clan.

*Greyson loves books!!! Greyson's favorite book is 10 Little Ladybugs. He loves to touch the raised surfaces of the ladybugs and loves to point them out when you ask him to.

*Greyson's words are: Dada, Mama, cat, book, down, done, "I love you"-see my previous post on this, Uh-oh (he loves this word!!!!),hi, bye, and apple.

*Greyson's got rhythm! He loves to dance. His dancing consists of tilting his head back and forth and bouncing up and down. He will even dance on command!

*Greyson loves our cats, Berkeley and Stanford! He chases after them, loves to pet them (otherwise known as, pulling their fur and yanking their tails), and sometimes just laughs hysterically at them for no reason whatsoever.

*Greyson still naps twice a day (once around 9 a.m. and the other around 2 p.m.)

We love our little boy so much! I can't imagine our lives without him. Happy Birthday Grey!

***Greyson's party is tomorrow, so stay tuned for more pictures and details. We also have Grey's 1 year well check on Monday, so we will have the latest stats then.***
