Anyways, I'm absolutely obsessed with this age he is at. He is too fun. I have loved every stage, and am sure that I will continue to do so, but he is such a big boy now! I feel like since he turned one, he's all the sudden really started understanding a whole lot more. He definitely knows what I'm saying, and tries his best to communicate with me. He's pretty easy to understand nowadays (not verbally, but through his pointing, babbles, and screaming). It's great! He's still not talking a whole lot. He says "mama" "mom" (which I am NOT a fan of....he's not allowed to call me mom til middle school!!) "dada" "nigh nigh" "uh-oh" (says that one ALL. THE. TIME). That's about it. He loves throwing things purposely on the ground and saying "uh-oh!" It's cute.
He is sleeping great, and has just recently in the last couple of weeks gone to one nap a day. He started trying to skip his afternoon nap, which didn't work since his morning one was over at like 10:30...so that was way too long to stay up til bedtime. So we've started going down for nap between 12-12:30 and he generally sleeps anywhere from 1:45-3 hours. Which is incredible...since he used to sleep for like 20 minutes. Our mornings seem a lot longer since I don't have a break, but it's great to actually get a stretch in the afternoon where I don't have to eat as fast as I can worrying his nap will only be 15 minutes!
He is absolutely obsessed with our dog Bailey. They are BFF and play together a lot. I LOVE it since B was my first baby! She will bring him her toys and they will play tug of war. Super cute. Riley on the other hand...she just growls. Cranky dog. Grayson gave up on her a long time ago. :)
We were supposed to give up bottles at a year...that didn't happen. He is down to 2 a day, one in the morning and one at night. Whatever. He loves them, and we'll get rid of them eventually.
Grayson is a ham and the happiest kid in the world. I constantly get comments about how happy he seems...and he really is! When he gets upset though...watch out! He loves laughing and being goofy. He has a belly laugh that I am so obsessed with I wish I could make it my sound machine. His favorite shows are Sesame Street, Chuggington, and Mickey. LOVES Elmo.
I realized I never did a Mexico post--so I decided to just put the pics in this post! To sum it up: weeklong trip to Tulum, Mexico with the O'Bryan family. It was super relaxing and great to see Grayson at the beach for the very first time!
Alright, I have a bajillion photos from my phone, so prepare for a lot of photos! Here is us the last few months:
