Happy Birthday, Gentry

Happy Birthday, sweet Gentry! I can't believe you are ONE today...but not until 10:42 pm tonight! (Let's not rush this.) This past year has flown by and I can't imagine being blessed with any other little boy than you! My little (big) 8 lb 14 oz, dark, curly headed baby boy has grown up so much. At one year old, you:

• Can say mama, dada, head, moo, yum, doggie and hi. You can kind of say chicken but it sounds like chit chit. (We won't practice this one in public.)



• Can show us where you head and tummy are.



• Can wave hi/bye, clap, dance like it's nobody's business, show us "one" when we ask how old you are and high five.



• Your favorite toy is your stuffed doggie Gibson/Gibby. You sleep with him every night and drag him around everywhere.



• Love to cuddle, give hugs and kisses.



• Your favorite book is your musical "Wheels on the Bus" book.



• When you get tired at night we put you in your crib and you go right to sleep and sleep all night.



• Love to play "chase."



• Your favorite foods are cheese, bananas and toast but you'll eat anything.



• Get SO excited when daddy comes home every night and let out the cutest squeals and giggles.



• Are a mama's boy and I absolutely LOVE it!
  

Here is a look back at our first days with you in the hospital!

Just born...seeing our sweet boy for the first time.

Getting cleaned up...healthy as can be!
Proud daddy!

Look at that sweet face!
Showing off all of your beautiful hair!
So perfect!
Snoozing away. One day old. Our little K-Stater! (Check out those big footprints.)
