Winter Wonderland

It has been snowy and stormy lately, but we have been finding ways to keep entertained. We get out of the house everynow and then due to cabin fever, and here are some photos of our latest excursion.

Mmmmmm...Ritz!

As promised, a picture of the teeth!

Here's the money shot!

His new thing is a big wide grin that bears those two teeth brilliantly!

Always fun to play with measuring spoons!

Guess who's getting his first 'toof'?

Yep, Grayson! We can't believe it! I was sitting with him in my lap during Bible study, keeping him busy, when he stuck my finger in his mouth to munch on, and there it was: something sharp on the bottom! When we peel his lip down you can see the two bottom ones in his gums, one poking through, and the next shortly to follow I'm sure! He barely lets us see it, so no pictures yet. But as soon as we can get a snap of it we'll upload it for sure!

Oh yeah, and...

Mooooo!

Here's our little cow! He's a boy cow, no udders. Everyone kept asking where his udders were, but alas, none to be found on the costume. And some folks who know he's been on the light side regarding weight made comments about him being a "Skinny Cow" (the dessert?). Hmmm...But then Dan just started saying that he was veal. What young tender meat!

(Don't worry we won't be eating our baby!)

And here's a nice shot of the whole family!

The Many Moods of Gray-bean

Grayson is now over 6 months old, and we think we are going to keep him. He makes us laugh all the time, and his personality becomes more and more evident each day. He can be fiesty, sweet, silly, mad, pensive and cuddly...and he switches rapidly between these moods. Sometimes he even combines them, with interesting results.

Cuddly and fiesty??? That's "Flirty".

Silly and Mad??? That's "Insane".

Sweet and Pensive??? That's just plain "Adorable".

Here are some recent photos of him:

Check out these moves!

Grayson is quite the achiever these days! He's doing new things all the time and we are just eating it up. The latest is that he is rolling from his back to his front, but that doesn't over shadow his other favorite pass time of 'walking'.

He is so proud of himself with this new found ability, but it has also been quite frustrating for him once he gets stuck there and can't get away from the resulting 'tummy time'! And don't even get us started with what it has meant for naps and bedtime...big yawn from two exhausted parents.

What do you think of those high steps, the chubby knees, and the way he eye balls the camera! He's coming straight for you, get ready for a big slobbery kiss!
