13 Months

Dearest Garrison,

Whooaah! This month flew by! And I am positive you grew about an inch a week, learned a new word everyday and have made me fall even deeper in love with you!

We celebrated your first birthday last weekend with a big harvest party. You had an amazing time, even though you slept through a little of it.

Everyone that has ever been around you have definitely determined you are a man's man. You LOVE beer - so much that your daddy has to pour it into a colored glass.. because if you see the beer bottle, you go CRAZY until you get some.You have even gone crazy over Colby's apple juice that was in a beer mug. You love anything with wheels and can throw/kick a ball like a champ! You have even been known to sit and watch a football game, which is a big deal for you.. you never sit! And last but not least - you are infatuated with your daddy. You would rather be in his arms than anywhere else in the world. It is safe to say you are daddy's boy!

Your vocabulary is growing everyday. Here are some of the words you have added:



Gio -- Grandma -- Horsey -- Aussie -- Drink -- More -- Done -- Riley -- Maddie -- Titi -- Shoe -- Bath -- Zebra  -- Night Night -- Row, Row Your Boat -- Dream -- Hat -- Banana -- Eat

 Although some things you aren't able to say yet.. you know what almost everything means! If I ask you to go get the soccer ball & kick it - you do just that! 

You are without a doubt the best baby ever. You sleep 12-13 hours a night and take one 3-3.5 hour nap or two 1.5 naps. You smile all day long. Give kisses and hugs that melt my heart and share everything with your sister.

You have been having some difficulty breathing, so I took you into the doctor and your oxygen levels were too low. So, you have been on nebulizer treatments ever since. You are supposed to get them every 4 hours.. but to be honest - we don't do it that much. You REALLY dislike them and usually scream for the whole 5 minute treatment. They don't hurt you - but I think you are disturbed by the noise of the machine. You go back to the doctor on Monday for your 1 year well-check and I am hoping we will no longer need to give you anymore treatments. 
 
I hope this month goes a little slower than last. I am looking forward to enjoying the fall season with you! 

Love You Always,
Mommy

You still have a little baby left in you :)
Always being silly

I just love this boy!

That smile! Those eyes! The chubby cheeks!
