 This morning while I was in the kitchen making breakfast and Mr. G was in the bathroom getting ready we all of a sudden hear Baby G yell out, "Wow!"  We both ran in to see him just staring up at the ceiling and then he started talking away.  But that is exactly what I was feeling..."Wow!...  Where did this year go?"
For the bulk of the morning Baby G enjoyed walking around the house carrying his bat and banging it on the floor as he went.

 I made him birthday banana pancakes and he loved them.

 Here's Baby G telling me how old he is.

 Daddy took a short break from work to come home so we could have Baby G open his presents.

 He wasn't too sure about the wrapping paper at first.

 But he sure liked what was inside.  "Ball....Ball...Ball"

 Daddy showed him how the glove worked.

 We also got him something to sit in at the pool, a bucket and a shovel to play in the rocks, a hide and seek puzzle, and a table and chairs.

 Unfortunately, it was about time for his nap..

 So he was kind of out of it.

 When he saw his table and chairs the first thing he did was shove the table across the room into a corner.  Apparently he didn't like where we had it.

 This was the hide and seek puzzle we got him.  He has to open and close doors to see the animals inside.  He loved trying to find the dog.

 Looking at these pictures he sure does look like a 1 year old...

 And he's definitely developed the personality of a 1 year old...

But I still can't believe it's true.
Happy Birthday, Baby G!  We are so proud of you and love you more than you could know.  You have made life so much fun.  We are so blessed to have you for a son and look forward to watching you grow up....as long as
