ONE!

Height: 29.5 in

Weight: 18 lbs 5 oz

Grayson turned ONE! He is just as giggly as could be. He doesn't really talk but he does babble "dadadada" a lot. Another one he does all the time is "mmhmmm". He is sleeping through the night for the most part now and takes 2 naps a day. He is loving being on the move! He is getting much more opinionated and also more frustrated that he cant pull himself up onto things. But we are working on it and I can already see improvements. He loves being around family and new people make him stick his hands up to his ears. He is definitely a shy boy! We love our Grayson!

Favorite foods:

+ Cheerios

+ Bananas

+ Blueberries

+ Graham Crackers

+ Greek Yogurt

+ Peas

+ Fries

He likes:

+ Army crawling around and exploring

+ Being chased 

+ Dallin's Foxes

+ Wheels on toy cars

+ Pushing buttons on the keyboard

+ Touch and feel books

11 months old

We were in Oregon when Grayson turned 11 months and I didn't have his bear to do a comparison picture with. But we have these cute ones instead!

Grayson still wakes 1 time a night but is easy to get back to sleep. He still takes 2 naps a day and he definitely needs them! This kid likes his sleep. 

Some of his favorite foods this month were blueberries. He also really likes Greek yogurt! Some nights that is all he would eat. 

He really started exploring this month! He learned how to army crawl and he loved to explore grandma and grandpa's house. He uses his head to push things out of the way (swiveling chairs) and gets mad if they don't move. He started fighting back a little if Dallin took a toy/food away from him. He definitely is showing a preference to what he wants to do and lets us know even more when he is unhappy. 

Another big improvement we saw this month was that he started taking steps when we hold his hands above his head. Grandpa worked with him and now he loves to walk around with help. Now he sometimes doesn't want to sit down and will make himself stiff as a board to avoid it!
