Letters to Grady February 28, 2011

Good morning sweet boy!

I cannot believe it is the very last day of February already! Time is just flying by since you arrived in our lives...We had a great week with you. It is so fun to see all of the new things you are doing. The latest is that you will shake your head "no" to Grandpa every time he looks at you:-) It doesn't matter if he is talking to you or just looking in your direction - as soon as you see him your head just starts to go back and forth telling him NO! haha I love it:-) We saw Pop Lew this weekend too and he is the only other person that you will consistently shake your head at too other than Grandpa.

You are officially TEETHING. I know we said it started last weekend but NOW you have sharp little things coming right through your gums...You are going to look like a different baby with little teeth coming out of your smile! But you are stuffy (for the first time since you were born) and do NOT like us wiping your snots off your face etc...you seem to be a little stubborn - and I keep telling Daddy that it is his fault - but really - let's be serious I am pretty sure that came from me! haha

Molly and Maddy's sleepover was exhausting because Maddy was too preoccupied to listen much and Molly is pretty much so interested in you that we had a hard time keeping her off of you :-) But I guess it is never a bad thing that you are more than loved!! We did have fun though once everything settled down. We took everyone to the Ciccotti Center to go swimming and you and Daddy lounged around the lazy river and you almost fell asleep laying on the noodles!! You are just a chilled out little baby and we just adore you.

You are also starting to look right in the direction of someone when we ask you "Where is Daddy/Grandpa/Grandma/Sue Sue?" You know exactly who we are talking about and you are just so SMART!

One last thing for now - you are eating EVERYTHING that isn't nailed down! I love how brave you are with trying new things. You had some more vanilla ice cream for dessert at Grandma's house last night. I am going to have to get a second job in order to feed you when you get a little bigger!!

Daddy was plowing for most of this weekend. He misses you so much when he is gone. In the 8.5 months since you were born we have had the most extreme weather that I can remember. It has been 85-90 degrees since the day you were born for ALL OF THE SUMMER. And then once winter has hit us it has been bitter cold with extreme low temps and for the whole 2 months of Jan/Feb we have been buried with HUGE snow storms - one right after the other. I welcome the extreme warm temps....but this cold weather is for the birds!!

I love you more than the anticipation of the first 60 degree day of the spring!!

Mommy
