Happy 1st Birthday Bryson Michael!!
Bryson is wearing 12 month clothes. He is STILL in size 3 diapers. He is around 21 pounds I am guessing. (he goes to the doctor on Friday so we will find out for sure then) He loves to eat & will try anything you give him. He is a huge fan of all fruit & most veggies! He is a little funny about meat, but he is getting better eating meat. He is fully switched from formula to whole milk & has done great with it. He doesn't like the milk to be right out of the fridge, but will drink it up if its cool. He is still on the bottle in the morning only because I can fully assure he will drink it all. We are trying to get rid of that bottle. We have only let him have his paci in the car seat & when he goes to sleep for nap & bedtime. We are thinking about only letting him have it to sleep, so it wont be so hard to "take it away" from him when the time comes. He has 8 teeth (4 on the top & 4 on the bottom). He has taken a step or two here & there to try to get to the sofa, but he walks great holding on to the sofa, your hands or his toys. He loves to push everything across the floor. He is learning more words everyday. He knows the candle & oven are HOT & will tell you every time he passes by them. He also says ball, go, Ma Ma, Da, Bubba, & Pop Pop all the time. He now knows how to "holler" at you to get your attention. I hear "Ma" all the time & he gets louder & louder until he has my undivided attention.
LIKES: drinking water, pushing toys, music, playing with Elmer, identifying peoples/objects eyes & nose, eating grilled cheese sandwiches, playing the drums, being outside, going on walks, clapping, smiling & trying to talk
DISLIKES: getting dressed & getting in the car seat.
We decided to split up Bryson's birthday & have 2 parties so he wouldn't be so overwhelmed & not so many people at our house at one time. Saturday we had a friends party & Sunday we had a family party. Bryson birthday parties were Cookie Monster themed. I had so much fun planning his birthday party I cant wait to see what I can come up with next year. Thanks to pinterest his birthday was creative & fun. I know he will not remember this birthday but it meant a lot to us to make it special & he will always have pictures to look back at!
Cookie Monster made a grand appearance at both parties! He was a hit! Only a few kids were a little afraid, but nothing too bad.
Now for picture overload!!!
