Earthquake....in the midwest??

We are in the process of trying to get Grant to sleep all night on a consistant basis...and there have been may early morning crying sessions...this morning (at 3:45am) was one of those times. I was in bed waiting for him to stop crying so I could go back to sleep when my bed started to move ever so slightly. It thought it was Bugsy but turns out it was the earthquake that happened in Illinois. I thought for a minute it must be a tornado but then realized it wasn't and thought maybe I was going crazy due to lack of sleep. Finally it all made sense this morning when I saw the news....and finally Grant fell back asleep at 5am

Lots of things to do today for a busy bee....

Here are some things we did today.....

We had to make sure Buster and Bugsy got a little LOVE today.

We definitely had to sit up today....we are all about sitting up like a big boy.

Finally we had to play with our new favorite toy....the pampers coupon. Who knew a coupon could be so entertaining?

6 Months

Yesterday was Grant's 6 month appointment (he was actually 6months & 12 days old).

Weight 19.58 (78%)
Height 27.56 in (79%)
Head 19.49 in (>97%)

He continues to grow. We hope his body will catch up with his head soon. :-)

Here are some pictures after the appointment. He was so tired after getting his shots.

Jump....Jump.....Jumperoo

The other day we got out Grant's jumperoo....I'm not sure he loves it yet but it keeps him entertained for a few minutes....which also keeps Nate and I entertained as it is fun to watch him spin around and try to jump.

Photo Overload

Grant recently discovered he has feet....and now they MUST go in his mouth everytime his pants and socks are off. This normally keeps him busy for 15 minutes or so. It is amazing to see how much he grows and changes each day.

What a big guy!

Everyday Grant is getting so much bigger. It is amazing to see. He has developed quite personality too. He keeps me laughing all day.

And we wonder why Grant doesn't like to sleep in his crib....man with all these toys who would want to sleep. There is even one more out of view toward the head of the crib.

Finally some warm weather.

This past weekend it finally warmed up a little...enough to melt some of the snow and ice. Our neighbor and their parents was nice enough to help us remove some of the snow and ice. Many thanks to them!!!

Here is a photo of Nate and Grant outside. I'm not sure Grant liked being bundled up...but he looked so cute!

First Tooth

It is little hard to see in this photo but Grant has his first tooth coming in. It is to the left of Nate's finger....and the other bottom tooth should be in within a few days.

Right now, Grant weighs about 18lbs at 5 months......

what a big guy!!
