Grant is growing so fast...he's already 9 months! Grandma took these pictures in her studio. We're spoiled by her nice camera. He is fat and happy, not crawling yet, but rolling around everywhere. Grant already has 7 teeth, which he flashes to anyone who will pay attention.

So, I know it's been awhile, but I'm finally posting. We've had a lot going on. A yearly highlight for the kids is the St. Patrick's day parade at The Gateway. This year we rode on the brand new fire engine. The biggest one in the state!

Cade's first stitches

A few weeks ago, Cade tripped over a pillow in the family room, and landed on a plastic baby block in the middle of his face. He had to get 2 stitches. It was a traumatic experience for him and me. I don't do well with blood, and of course Jeff was gone when it happened. Cade was happy to get a sucker out of it. We are all doing well now.


No one has been sick for about two weeks, so that's pretty good for us lately. Grant had been at the doctor's office several times earlier in the month with ear infections. After two courses of antibiotics, they have cleared up. He's finally sleeping through the night. Yippee!! Grant has had a big month - he learned to roll from his back to his tummy, and he can sit up on his own. He loves eating baby food and holding his own bottle. Mom loves it too!
