Draw * Write * Now, Grace!

I don't think I've ever loved a handwriting book as much as Draw * Write * Now! We just finished Lesson 1, and both of us are looking forward to the rest of the year. I wish I'd done it with Archie. I might still teach him some of the drawing. Grace draws chickens all the time now because she is so confident of her ability and pleased with the outcome.

Happy Sixth Months, Grant!

At sixth month, my little buddy stays busy exploring (and eating) his world. He loves to get up on all fours, rock back-and-forth, then scoot backward. He can also sit unassisted for a few minutes with help getting into position. He is way chatty and talks all the time. Everyone in the nursery seems to love him and I can see why! He's totally sweet and totally adorable.

Pumpkins in the Pumpkin Patch

One of my favorite things about fall (which is not one of my favorite seasons) is our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. I love taking my three little pumpkins on a hayride and taking their pictures (even if the picture taking is not their favorite part)! What a great day!

Grant goes for the Good Stuff

Even at the tender, young age of six months, Grant has a discriminating palette. One glimpse of that Halloween candy and he knew he had to have some! Sorry, Boy. Maybe next year. Glad you could enjoy the pretty, shiny paper for this year, though.

Scooting and Sitting

At six months, Grant is doing great pushing sort of up onto all fours and scooting backwards. He can also sit unassisted for short periods of time (with someone's hand behind to catch him if he falls).

Happy Halloween 2014

From one Power Ranger to another. I can't believe how long Grant is in comparison to Archie in this picture!
