I've really noticed a change in Grayson lately when it comes to his personality and nature. He's always been a happy, helpful boy but he's really starting to show that there's a silly streak inside him.

Whether it's playing made-up games or giggling with glee, Grayson has an infectious smile that I hope sticks with him throughout his life. He's become quite the wiggler, joker and all-around funny man.

He's also continuing to flex his independence and now feeds himself with utensils, helps unload the dishwasher by putting his cups and plates in the cabinet and also feeds Roxy (whom he still calls "goodgirl").

Of course as you'll see from the picture below, his helpfulness sometimes leads to more work for his parents but we appreciate the effort.

Grayson dumped Roxy's food in the water bowl instead of the food bowl (and the floor, of course)

He's really into hats, sunglasses and jackets right now too. If you try to take them off when we walk in the door he throws a fit so we just let him wear it all until he decides he's done.

This isn't the best picture ever, but it provides a glimpse into the unbridled joy that's in Grayson's smile.

Grayson is also getting better at saying words and smiling on command. Here are a couple of videos saying "thank you" and blowing kisses.
