11 months... and growing

Please excuse the Mess in the Playroom... Grayson likes to have EVERYTHING out! Ha!

Night time routine... play until too sleepy... then go get in bed with Millie!

Grayson and Mommy!

This is after after his second bath... he distroyed the room while attacking Millie... see next few pics!

This was what I saw next... after he was petting and loving his puppy!

This was after it was all over...

This is how it all started... He was petting Millie...

Bath time... his favorite time... 

He no longer likes to sit in the bath... he wants to stand...

Me of course playing with his hair!

He really is a HAPPY baby boy!

Ok let me explain the pics... I have NO idea how to re-order them and even though I try to up-load them in the correct order... it doesn't help any! Most of these are in my bathroom and playroom! I try to keep it all clean I REALLY do... but my little man likes to pull EVERYTHING out as soon as he comes in the room! He is like my little tornato... at school they laugh cause they keep all the toys on shelves on the wall and as soon as he walks in he pulls EVERY toy down... well he likes to have everything at hand is what I have to say about it!

Well Grayson is now 11 months old and plans are now being made for Grayson's first b-day party! I have been trying to decide what to do for his party for a while... did I want to rent out a park... do an indoor place... do swimming... something in the back yard... what! Well I finally went out and bought the invitations yesterday and have decided to plan the party! I was planning on having a mix come see my house... and 1st b-day party BUT since my house will now be under construction I don't want to have a whole bunch of people walking through a mess... so we are now going to have it at my bro and sister's house! They have a Rainbow playset and we a small blow-up moonwalk... and then I have a ball pit and a swimming pool! It will be a little crazy but keep the kids active and have fun! Then we will do hot dogs and hamburgers or whatnot! I'm excited!

Well Grayson is a little ham he makes me laugh so often! He likes to be the center of attention! If he is not then he makes a mess and is the center of attention! It is cute but I should get onto him for doing this I know!

Well there are a few things that I know I should worry about somewhat but I am not! I will wait till the pedi says I should worry!

First Grayson is not talking! Yes he babbles and sings but he doesn't say words! I know he has plenty of time but since I had issues with speech I really worry about him!

Second he is not walking! He was the first to crawl in my play group... but walking he will do as long as he holds on but he will not stand on his own or walk and I know I should not worry he is still young but I don't want him to have any issues! Oh well I know it will all happen in time!

Well Grayson is napping and I am tired so I may try to take a short nap! Ha lets see if that works!

Well...

This past week has been a VERY rough one for us! To begin the week Grayson was running a crazy fever that landed us in our friendly Pediatrician's office on Saturday morning right before they closed! He ended up with just a virus, but I have learned with him if I don't take him in then he stays sick even longer, and I needed to work! Then Serah and Brian went out of town for the week and I was nice enough to watch their dog! Oh how big a mistake that was! First one reason Serah no longer could watch the silly boy of mine was cause he never would sleep over there! I thought it was just cause he didn't want naps anymore, but this week I figured out it was in fact he didn't like their house! I do not know what it is, but he could be super sleepy OR already asleep and we walked through the front doors of the house and Bing his eyes would fling open and he would be up for the night! I think he was up ever hour or so at night, and would fuss and cry most of the time! I do not know what it is but he doesn't like to be away from home! Well by Wednesday he slept most of the day at school, of course cause he was so sleepy from not sleeping all night the 2 previous nights, so I knew even though I was pooped I would get no sleep! When I went to get the booger yesterday from school they said he took 2 really good 3 hour naps (I was only at work for 8.5 hours - so he slept 6 of those) so I figured even though last night we would be back at home I still would get not sleep, well thankfully I was wrong! My son just loves being back home, even after all his naps yesterday and being WIDE away at The Ingram's house we walked into our house and Wham! He was fighting to keep his eyes open! I had to force him to stay awake long enough for dinner, mind you it was barely 630 and I wanted him to sleep for the night so that was way too early to put him to bed! I was able to sleep off till 8 and then I put him in bed awake which the last few days at the Ingram House he has SCREAMED and cried till I pick him up and rock him all the way to sleep then would wake up after a few minutes of laying down! Well I put him in bed at 8 and he slept till 4am! Yay! He didn't really want to go back to bed after that BUT I did have the first GOOD nights sleep since Sunday SO today I was able to function a little better!

I have NO pics to post! I have been a bad mommy that has NO batteries in her camera SO I cannot post any pics! Sorry!

Well, we have a fun filled weekend ahead! We have meeting with contractors to hopefully fix our house! We are going to go look at flooring AND pic out birthday stuff for the little guy! Oh and to top it all off I think we may try to go swimming also. may even try our new community pool that I think we can go to, and may even go to the park next to it!

I really wish that Grayson would start taking real steps and walking! NO I am not trying to rush him, but it would make things so much more fun! Right now I hate taking him out in public cause I have to carry him or put him in his car cause the ground is nasty to crawl on!

Oh well it will happen when it happens!!!
