A Beautiful Mess...

I LOVE BEING A MOM!!! The best job in the whole world, even above photography, (as much as I love it), is being a mommy! Graydon is almost 13 months and growing so fast. It's been so fun to watch him discover different things like feeling a fury dog for the 1st time, (which made him laugh and scream like he was at a rock concert), or the soft peddles of a flower, (that made him giggle), or how he's been noticing the leaves on the trees fluttering in the wind as we go for our walks.
Graydon is also learning a ton. He is up to nine steps now all by himself and is also leaning how to use a spoon. I usually supervise him with a spoon and help him get the food on it then let him put it into his mouth on his own. This helps cut down the mess. Last night, however, Jeremy fed him. After Graydon made it clear that HE wanted to do it, Jeremy gave him the spoon AND his container of strained green beans and let him do it all by himself! I had to grab a few picks and share them with you all! He looks good in green don't you think?
