happiness is contagious...

Look at that face!!!  Ahhh, it just melts me.  I can't help but smile everytime I see his big gummy grin.  Why does he have to grow up so darn fast?  Rounding the corner to a year makes me so sad.  I would love to have this cuddly baby around forever!  On a bigger note, Grant took his first steps yesterday.  Well, a single step and it might have been on accident.  But either way, it caught us both by surprise!  He has had a rough week with a double ear infection.  But he seems to be on the mend now.  It breaks me heart seeing him in pain.  We just adore this baby.  All of us can't keep our hands off of him.  That may explain why he is always sick.  Sweet Baby Grant rocking away on his rocking horse. 

What a little face....



Baby Grant's First Christmas

10 months old today...

Look who turned 10 months old today?  And guess who can't believe this is happening?  Me!  Anyways, look how curious he is about the great outdoors.  With 60 degree temperatures my kids were playing outside with neighbors (rightfully so.)  I walked Olivia across the street to a friends house and when I walked back up to my front porch I saw the cutest little face pressed against the window.  It literally brought a giddy warmth to my heart and soul.  So unexpected and so darn cute.

I mean, seriously.  I ADORE THIS FACE.  I could stare at it all day long.  Sorry, I know I am biased but it's just the happiest little face ever.  I think Grant rather be with Olivia outside.  But my poor baby is sick.  Really sick.  Sore throat, runny nose and a cough.  It breaks my heart to see him suffer.

A little mac and cheese brightened his afternoon.  And don't mind the hand-me-down bib.  Real men wear pink, right?
