He did great during the haircut and sat on Paul's lap so nicely! He got a little squirmy at the end after he got comfortable with the people and things around him. But, at the beginning he just sat and stared at all the people and things around him, especially at himself in the mirror!
He looks so old and grown up now! And, I think he's cheeks look chubbier! I'll have to take some pictures of him now that it isn't freshly cut so you can see the final product soon!
Here are some pictures of him getting his hair cut and with Jennifer afterwards!
Here are a few little tidbits about what Gradyn is doing now because I realized it has been awhile since I have updated on him:
*He now has 5 teeth and is working on a 6th right now. He has 2 on the top and 3 on the bottom. The 2 on the top were terrible for him to get in! Lots of diaper rash! Ouch!
*He is standing on his own and will take 5 or 6 steps in between Paul and I. He wants to run and dive at us though because he is so excited! So, I think he could do more if he wasn't so crazy!
*He does not want to eat anymore. He will shake his head no and close his mouth tight so you can't even put anything in it. He is getting very adamant about shaking his head NO! I can't believe he figured that out so soon!
*He still wants to be up standing, walking, running, etc. everywhere! He just screams with delight when we let him walk holding on to one of our hands or when he does it on his own. We're pretty sure once he can walk steadily on his own it won't be much of a walk, it will be a RUN!
*He isn't eating many table foods yet because he seems to have a pretty big gag reflex. He gags and throws up a lot, so we are kind of scared to try too many things because of that. He loves Vanilla Wafers, cheese puffs, animal crackers, and Ritz crackers. Those are pretty much the stapes in his diet right now. But, even with those he will only eat so many before he starts whining and shaking his head NO!
*We waves bye-bye and will imitate "bu-bu" after you say it to him.
*He will imitate "da-da" after you say Daddy.
*He is starting to learn to blow kisses, thanks to Doreen at daycare!
*He is still getting up once a night (sometimes more). Usually sleeps from 8:30ish to 7:00, with getting up the 1 time for a bottle and goes right back to sleep.
*He LOVES his oatmeal cereal in the morning! That is the 1 thing he will still eat and be VERY excited about! As soon as he sees the bowl he starts smacking his lips!
*We just put away all of his "baby" stuff!
*We switched him over a few weeks ago to a convertable carseat and just received the 2nd one in the mail last weekend so now both of our cars have the "big boy" carseat. He LOVES the nicer one we got for my car and can sit up tall to see out the window and talks like crazy. He can also sleep very well in it and has lots of room!
*He still needs 3 naps a day (in a perfect world). He usually always falls asleep on the way home from daycare and will sleep for 30 to 45 minutes in the evenings.
We put a 6 foot Christmas tree up on top of a TV stand so he can't get to the tree. The only thing he wants to get to is the Nativity set on the coffee table that he can't reach that well. He has been told "NO" enough that he just stands there and looks at it and hits the table and squeals in delight!
That is all I can think of right now! Please ask if you want to know anything else about him! He is turning into a very busy, "bratty" as Paul says, little boy! Can't believe he is almost 1 year old!!!
