After much hounding from certain individuals (Courtney) I thought it necessary to update the blog before a linching was had! Of course I completely understand wanting to have the most recent photos and updates of one of the cutest little boys on earth! It is amazing how 3-4 weeks can change an entire household. Grady has become an expert crawler, puts everything in his mouth, can pull himself up on any surface (including the dog) and has learned that he can use his body and motion to resist Mommy and Daddy, especially when his diaper is being changed. But we wouldn't have it any other way. Everyday we get to watch the development and growth of a little one and how amazing God's design is for his creation. Here are the most recent photos of our family. Enjoy!
This is the latest family picture. On one of the most beautiful evenings of the summer, we went out to Raccoon River for a supper picnic and interaction with nature. It was an experience taking the whole family including Aunt Jen and Chicago in one car, but it was worth it. Aynsley, our cat, is no longer needed for a family picture, since he is so independent and does not do what a cat is supposed to do which is snuggle his owner! What a cute family!
Grady is getting so big, he can actually ride the playground toys on his own!
This was the scene in the backseat of the car coming home from Raccoon River. Chicago is obviously HUGE and he takes up a large part of the back seat. This picture kinda freaked me out since Chicago is sitting like a person!
Grady is crawling all over. We remembered that his activity mat could be turned into a tunnel and he has enjoyed crawling through it and playing with the toys. Our cat also enjoys the tunnel as he sees it as his "hide-out" from the dog.
Grady thinks it is so fun to crawl and play underneath his exersaucer. He bonks his head quit frequently, but it seems like it does not phase him since he continues to do it.
Grady really enjoys "helping" Daddy out with the laundry. He especially loves taking clothes out of the basket after they have been folded. Here he is helping sort through the clothes.
I think Grady sees the puppy has a big play toy. He crawls around him and uses him as a pull up prop as well as plays with his toys. Here he he sitting in between Chicago's paws. Thankfully Chicago is really gentle with our baby. I think Grady is telling us what he wants to be when he grows up....The hulk!
Here is Grady again with the puppy. Ben absolutely loves to watch them interact
This is a video that I caught of Grady "playing" with Chicago. It made me a little nervous, but Chicago was a very good puppy.
Here again Grady is able to ride his big boy toys. He's probably getting old enough to ride a real tractor.
