Funny Sleep

Below is a picture of the video camera while Graham is sleeping. Yep, he's sleeping. And this was a position he committed to for about an hour.

Hitting The Street

Graham hitting the street in his new Big Wheel - he LOVED it!

Daddy Went To Toys R US

Two weekends ago, Kyle went to Toys R Us. And came back with some really fun stuff! A Big Wheel and a keyboard! (Which came in more handy than we even realized at the time. Later that weekend, Graham got his first fever. Real fever - his first fever not associated with a vaccination. It was 103, and my little guy was miserable. So sad!! I found myself going to bed emotionally exhausted every night. We finally took him to the doctor on Monday morning - his nasty cold had turned into a double ear infection. He's back to normal after some antibiotics. What would we do without antibiotics?!)

We now call Graham "Maestro", and he REALLY loves to ride his big wheel down the street. And his mommy and daddy are REALLY ready for the warm weather to stick around so we can do it more often!

Saturday Morning Date

Graham LOVES books. I mean LOVES LOVES books. He can sit with me and read 25 books at a time. (Granted, his books don't have chapters, and one can get through a board book lickety split!) It's amazing we haven't ever taken him to the bookstore! It dawned on us that the bookstore would probably be a fun outing for our little sir. So we went to breakfast a few Saturdays ago and then Barnes and Noble. Each of us got a book, and it was a blast! (I actually think Graham had more fun running up and down the aisles....but he did enjoy pulling some books off the shelves and reading. And we found some great bargain books in the kids' section!)

Graham and Kyle taking over the story-time stage!

Curious George

Curious George is coming to town, and we have tickets! We are taking Graham (thought it would be more fun than just making it a date....:)), and we're going with another couple and their almost-two-year-old son. We can't WAIT!!! So, we went to the bookstore to get a few more Curious George books. Just so he MIGHT recognize him in April. Graham can definitely recognize a monkey in a book, and he LOVES his monkey puppet. Even says "EEE EEE O O O". We have actually started allowing him to watch a wee bit of TV - only Curious George - to really drive this home. Can't WAIT!!!

The Somersault

The Olympics have inspired Graham. He's been practicing his somersault. I think he'll be ready to compete in 2014. (Seriously - Graham makes us laugh when he wants to do a forward roll. He puts his tush int he air, and he puts the top of his head on the floor. And he'll stay there until we come flip him over. He'll stay there a LONG time!)

Happy Birthday Kyle!!

Kyle turned 36 on February 28th, and we had a low-key family evening with our parents. And we all chased Graham around the house!

Graham always makes a bee-line for the dining room table. He knows his Papa will chase him!


Graham LOVES cake. LOVES it! (Kyle's dinner of choice was pizza - I think Graham's favorite meal is now also pizza and cake!)
