Forever and Always: uno.

how is it this little stinker face is one? levi and i keep asking ourselves this every day when we look at him. it's like you keep track less with the second one so it goes by faster.

greysen is a bundle of joy. at a time when his brother is hitting the terrifyingly terrible threes, it's nice to have a baby who doesn't talk back to you, loves to snuggle and can handle getting squished and kisses from mom. he's so happy and calm and we absolutely love him to pieces.

some quirks about the babe:

he can hold his own against zak now. that boy does something he doesn't like and greysen will squeal and screech [we call it his velociraptor sounds, very deafening} until he gives it back/lets go/is nice. it's hilarious. and zak hates it. way to work your magic, baby.

he is very fast at crawling. and could care less to walk. it's amazing how genetics work.

despite how hard i tried, he refuses to eat any food on any given day based on how it feels, even if he's already had it and liked it. just like his brother. so annoying. there are only a few things he will be guaranteed to eat regardless: bananas, pb&j, yogurt, cereal, minestrone soup, and any type of cake.

he takes two two-ish hour naps and sleeps generally from 8-8. love love love that.

he is a drawer opener. everything can and should be unloaded by him. it's hilarious and annoying at the same time.

he's also a button pusher. anything with buttons he looooves. remotes, phones, remotes, phones, we frequently find them stashed places where only babies can put them.

he absolutely adores his brother. zak can make him follow him around the house or entertain him or feed him and he generally does whatever he says. it's very handy when greysen decides to try and be all up in my business when i'm cooking dinner.

he finally has hair. it may be nothing like zak's so i have no idea what to do with it, but at least he's not totally bald. haha yeah for baby!

for some reason, people think that my baby children are girls. we have blamed it on the blue eyes. i don't know how anyone can think greysen is a girl, but whatevs. it may make me secretly/openly proud that both of our kids have blonde hair and blue eyes. clason genes FTW!
