Greysen is our little climber. He loves to climb on the school desk, over the arm of the couch down the couch to the end table, on the end table, over the arm of the other couch, down the couch, to the popcorn machine to open the door. Then he climbs down the couch and crawls to the school desk to do it all over again.
I made a lot of pudding today for MacKinlay and Greysen. I fed Greysen some and he started freaking out because he wanted to hold the spoon.
I gave him the spoon and then he was freaking out because he wanted the bowl.
I gave him the bowl and he stuck his hand in and then he wiped it on his face.
That is when I had to get out the camera and capture this fun moment. He sure makes me laugh.
We went to Lincoln City, OR this past weekend with the Timms family.
I have never felt water so cold. It couldn't have been more than 40 degrees. It sent cramps up my legs but Greysen didn't seem to mind.
Greysen loves the beach. The second he saw the sand he wiggled out of my arms and stretched out belly down on the sand and just giggled.
The only drawback with the beach is Greysen will not stop licking the sand. He is a picky eater yet he can't stop sticking his tongue right on the sand.
We went to the aquarium and I thought this 7 foot shark was captivating.
Here is Greysen with daddy checking out the fish.

Ashley and Rylee as Sumo wrestlers on the day we "visited Japan" The background is the huge plane that my mom painted by hand. It is hard to see with the poor lighting but it was so amazing in person.

Greysen loves the beach and can't get enough of the sand and water. I wish we lived near a beach because it entertains him for more than a hour. It is the world's largest free sandbox. Maybe someday.
We had a fun swim party for Greysen. We had an inflatable water park with three slides and the kids loved it. Greysen's favorite part was the birthday cake. He didn't want to eat the cake but he loved playing in it. It was a fun time!
Greysen thought loved his birthday cake. He dug in and had fun squishing the cake through his fingers and wiping it everywhere. There was a huge mess in seconds.
Greysen loves the water! He is just like his Mom, loves rolling around and splashing in the water. We took Greysen down to Cresent beach and he could not get enough. He liked pushing the sand around and watching it fall through his fingers. 
Greysen's big boy car seat arrived the other day and he has had so much fun playing with the box. He climbs up the box, then onto the chair, then climbs down and the process begins again. He is our little monkey and has recently figured out how to make his way on the couch in the loft. He'll have to wait to ride forward facing until he is 20 lbs and one. He has reached 19 lbs so car rides should be more tolerable in just a few weeks.
We went to Lehi Round-Up days on Saturday and Greysen loved looking at the animals and going on the swings. I pushed him on the swing facing me and as he came towards me I would jump back like he was knocking me over. He thought it was hysterical and had the hiccups to prove it.
We finally got a seat on the bike for Greysen for his 11 month birthday celebration. Okay not really. But we did get it today and he loved it. He is growing up so fast.
Eleven months today and Greysen is all over the place. He has learned to pull himself up the child school desk and stands on the seat. HE is walking all around the furniture and loves to throw the tennis ball. He has four teeth and enjoys biting my arm, shirt and nose.Finally after four months of asking Greysen how big he was he finally figured it out. Persistence is the key. Now we will have to work on a new trick. Any suggestions?
