OH MY!

I can hardly believe that my sweet baby will be ONE tomorrow!! He grew so fast, but I have loved being there every moment! Here is an update on what my soon-to-be toddler is doing! I will post his birthday party pictures along with his doctor stats on Friday after our

appointment!

*Greg is in size four diapers

*He wears 12 months clothes!

*He is a size 5 in shoes! (BIG FOOT)

*He sleeps 11 1/2 hours at night...except when he is teething!

*He has 7 teeth now...and another one about to pop through on the bottom!

*Greg LOVES his blankies!!

*Greg LOVES stuffed animals...he likes to fall on them and say "awwww!" His current favorites are Pooh and his stuffed Moose!

*Greg naps twice a day now...for a total of about 3 hours!

*Greg loves meal time, but is having texture issues, and spits food out of his mouth if he decides it feels weird! This is so frustrating since food he used to like he is now spitting out! I feel like I make 2-3 meals for every meal just so he will eat something!

*Greg LOVES to be outside. He has no particular interest outside, he just likes to be out there and walking around! He touches EVERYTHING!

*He waves bye bye! Even when I tell him that we are going bye byes - he will look at the front door and start waving.

*Greg understands so much! I will ask him where something is (a specific toy, blankie, etc) and he will go find it and bring it to me!

*Greg's vocabulary consists of mama, dada, hey, and sometimes yay!

*He likes to clap when we clap!

*He still is not really into TV (which we do not mind at all). He will sit still in the morning and watch about 10 minutes of Little Einsteins or Micky Mouse Clubhouse. He likes the music in both!

*He likes to dance! It is so cute to watch him bounce to the beat!

*Greg hates getting his diaper changed and getting dressed! He is a man on the move and will slow down and sit still for no one! :-)

*Greg has been doing better at Mass - we don't have to take him out as much any more!

*Greg has started on whole milk and LOVES it!

*He likes to throw things!

*He likes to come up to my belly and kiss my belly now! (PRECIOUS!)

*Greg is the best snuggler in the morning!

*He travels pretty well in the car!

*His favorite time of day is still bath time!

*He loves to run around naked after bath time!

*Greg has learned how to flush toilets! We keep all the bathroom doors closed now!

*Greg loves to explore!

*He hardly ever crawls-he is very good at walking, and often runs more now!

*He loves to drink water

*He is thinks our fridge is pretty awesome and wants to go inside of it every time it is opened!

*He knows the word no, and responds to it...most of the time! :-)

*Greg plays really well on his own in the playroom!

We are so proud of our little man and we have loved watching him grow! He is constantly amazing us in what he can do! I cannot wait to share with you the pictures from his party! I am so excited to go to the doctor to see where he is at with his height and weight!
