08-10-2010 - ♫♫ HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY GUSSIEGUS

My mood while writing this blog: EXCITED

Today is Gus's first birthday!!! I am so excited, we are meeting my sister and brothers at McDonalds at 5pm to see Ronald McDonald and then we are having dinner with my sister and brothers all my nices and nephews tonight =) but Ruben and Gus's birthday party is on Halloween :-) I have some presents for Gus to open today but his big present is not going to be opened until his party. He got a toy chest, shopping cart, pirate ship, some cars, and some teething rings. I am so happy! He will open these gifts tonight but his big gift (a toy castle) he will open at his party. I wanted to get him a book case but I think we will save that for Christmas. He has 7 teeth and is getting new ones every week. He says Mama, Papa, Grandma, Ruben, bye bye, and since we have been singing happy birthday to him for the past two weeks he sings happy birthday too!!! He signs eat, drink, milk, play, and is working on signing sleep! He is walking on his own, about 10 steeps by himself but still prefers crawling which is fine with me. Gus is a great little boy who has a funny personality. His laugh is contagious!!! His favorite book is How do Dinosaurs say Good Night? He loves singing and making his brother and Papa chase him all around, he loves biting his Great Grandma as well. We are taking Gus to lunch this afternoon after he wakes up from his little nap. I am kind of sad that this year flew by so fast but am excited about what the next year brings ;-) Happy Birthday to my baby boy!!! I hope everyone is having a great day!!! ((HUGS))
