I'm going to make this a short one because I should be working, but this is the only free time I get! This summer was the BEST summer I've had! It's funny how just hanging around the house or outside with a 1 year old is the best time I've had. I never thought I'd say that. We went to Hot Springs, of course. I'm so thankful that we have family that has a house on Lake Hamilton and loves us all enough to let us stay there whenever we want. Uncle Ron and Aunt Bren surely spoil us all! This is Grey driving the boat. He loved it, but seemed to fall asleep every time! HAHA!!
He's finally started talking more! I was scared because he stopped saying a few things, but I had to realize they do things on their own time, not mine. He loves to get pictures in the house and point out and say "mama" and "da-dee"!! He does the same thing at grandma's and paw-paw's house. He somewhat say Aunt Lindsay, kinda sounds like dinsey, but too cute! He loves looking for Louie and saying Ew-e. This child is definitely an outside child and he's definitely ALL boy! If there's dirt or mud anywhere, he's gonna find it and be all up in it! We went to the Collierville sprinkler park this summer and he didn't really care for it. They had a playground 10 feet from it and he wanted to play on it instead. So I drove an hour away to go to the playground!
Here's a picture of Grey and Portland playing in the pool. And the next one is of him helping us wash the cars, which he absolutely LOVES!!!
A few first's have happened in just the past week.
1. He started a new sitter. Our previous sitter called on Friday to tell me that she started a new job on Monday!! Nice notice! But it all worked out for the best because he loves it at "Memaws". He has other kids to play with and she is just like his 3rd grandma.
2. He got a "big boy bed"! It's too cute! It's Toy Story and he loves getting in it and watching tv. Sleeping in it is a different story. He sleeps with us, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I mean, it's not like he's going to be 16 and still sleeping with us, so I'm enjoying while I can.
3. He got sick for the 1st time!!! He's never even had a fever, only a few colds, so know we've been lucky. I figured once he got around other kids he's eventually get sick. He's had a cold all this week, but Friday night his fever got up to 104.8!!!! He started throwing up and that's when we got scared. Kenny called his mom and she rushed over with lots of goodies for him. Suppositories and Pedialyte! haha!! We were about to rush him to LeBonheur, but his fever went down pretty fast. We took him to the doctor Saturday morning and of course it was just a virus. So we had to just let it run its course. Thankfully we didn't have any more fevers after Friday night.
Here Grey is in his bed, with Louie!
He's turned in to a little boy overnight! I miss my little baby, but I love how independent he has become. He's still a mama's boy and I pray that NEVER changes. He still loves rubbing my hand when he's sleepy. He still has to make sure mama is always in his sight. He'll definitely always be my baby. :)
Here's his 1st big boy haircut. The next few are just some cute pictures I love.
This last one is of him and my dad, his grandaddy. He watched him for 3 days when I started back work and I was so happy they got to spend that time together. Grey adores him!
This wasn't as short as I thought it was going to be!
