A Gray update

DSC_9499-2


First things first, this kid is mobile. Maaaaybe not super fast yet but he squirms pretty much anywhere he can. He's got the squiggles down and now he can even pull his stomach up off the floor for a bit. Its only a matter of time.

Second, Gray was introduced to those baby puffs that dissolve in your mouth and he hasn't looked back. Loves em. Also gave him the sippy cup today and he likes that too, just not as much as the puffs. gotta have his puffs.

And last, he discovered the scream. Oh. the scream. how it haunts my nights. Well, only one night in particular that ended up with him packed in his car seat at 1 am with full intention of us driving to the emergency room when he decided that life was not, in fact, ending. But since then he figured out it was a haaaaaaaaaandy tool to be used at any given unfortunate bed time/ nap time/ pretty much whenever he can't get what he wants. (and the problem ended up being he was super constipated and the suppository that we gave him did its dirty work later that morning.) but seriously. you should've heard the screaming.

So that's it for now.

Oh I made him a mobile (finally) this morning for above his crib. Perhaps I'll take some pictures later.

More low-light shots

I'm trying to figure out how to get better pictures in less light. Plus, Gray was being cute with his new favorite game: pull everything he can out of his toy basket.

What we did yesterday

Because it was so nice yesterday we took advantage and played outside for a while.

Our afternoon in pictures (and a few extra words):

spring

one of my favorite trees in the yard is gearing up for spring. I just love the red and white against the blue sky.
