Graham turns ONE today!

Our sweet boy turns one today on February 23, 2015. I cannot believe it has been a whole year since we had him. So much has happened and changed but the year has been the fastest of my life. We had a little family dinner to celebrate Graham's first year!



This was Graham's face when we sang Happy Birthday to him!











Graham had to have a picture taken under the table, of course! 
It is an Alexander tradition!




Graham is WALKING! He is so cute! He walks with his arms above his head we think because that is how "Papa Joe" and his daddy have taught him as they hold his little hands.




Graham is talking up a storm. We don't know what he is saying just yet but he sure does have a lot to say. He does say, "hey!" and he says it so clearly that someone in the grocery store asked me, "Did your baby just say hey to me?"





In the pic below Graham is sitting on Papal Avery's rock in the front yard. Walking in the ice and snow was not his favorite!



He absolutely loves his Pooh Bear and sleeps with him every night. He has created two games on his own. One where he throws his ball against a cabinet and it comes back to him and the other where he throws a marker to me and I throw it back across the table. He loves doing both of these and just laughs so hard. He loves music and sounds and tries to imitate them. He also likes to shake his little head and dance. He's growing and is curious. He has a big smile when he sees you and big sparkling blue eyes. Corey gave him a hair cut and I think his little head looks like my Papal Avery.

Please say a prayer for my Papal Avery and our family as he is very sick and in the hospital.

Graham, we love you so much. You are such a wonderful gift to us. We pray that as you start a new year and continue to grow that you would know Jesus personally.
