Grant,
I can't believe you are 1! The last year flew by. You have learned so much and it has been a joy to raise you. You are such a blessing to our family - you love being with us and just want to play all the time. You love to play with Griffin and Grace and always want to be included. You're really independent and love to feel like you're playing on your own with Griffin and Grace (even though we are close by watching). You love to climb - you'll climb anything and everything! And you love to get in things: like baskets of toys, drawers, the bottom of the stroller, anything you can fit in. You are beginning to enjoy reading books more and more, and it is the sweetest thing to read to you. You like to help turn the pages. You think giving raspberries is hilarious and often try to give them to us. You also love to make sounds with your mouth and think it's so funny when we make them back. You love to eat - your favorite food is yogurt. You still nap twice a day, at 9:00 and 1:00, and you sleep through the night except you get up at 5:00 a.m. every day. We are working on that!
Grant, you have made us all so happy. Griffin and Grace are delighted with you and have so much fun playing with you. Daddy and I are endlessly in love with you and couldn't be more proud of you. You are such a sweet heart - we can't wait to watch you grow up!
Your first birthday happened to be Griffin's first day of kindergarten - so it was a busy morning!
We had cinnamon rolls to celebrate with you before school
Although the picture doesn't show it, you loved the cinnamon rolls!
You're starting to walk - you can take about 10 steps before starting to crawl
You still do the bear crawl too because you're so fast at it!
