GOO!

Sorry it's been so long since my mom posted pictures! Here are some long awaited pictures from our recent trip out west to visit my Great-Grandma Ruby. It was loads of fun

Here's the Duluth crew waiting to get on the plane.

Grant's first air-plane ride. He did really well!

Grant and Grandma Ruby

Grant's first Easter. We went to a mega church that held their Easter service at the Cardinals stadium.
The weather was beautiful in AZ. We all enjoyed wearing summer clothes! Grant didn't quite know what the make of it all. He'd never felt wind in his face before!

Duane, Anna, Jeff, Grant, Aimee, Aaron & Grandma Ruby. Debbie is taking the picture.

Grant's first time in a swimming pool! He didn't cry at all!

G has gotten really good at standing up. Here he's getting a good look at his play gym from a new perspective.

Jeff got a good work out as Grant spent a lot of time in the baby bjorn. We were thankful that Aaron and Duane carried him around some too. A 16 lb baby does a number on one's back!

more standing!
Here's our happy boy in our hotel room!
Last year I really wanted a picture by a giant cactus but it was rainy and cold so I never got one. This year we pulled over in a small town posed for a pic.

More smiles! This is Grant's silky. He loves to hold it next to his face when he goes to sleep.

A couple of days after we got home Grandpa G.P. and Grandma Betty came to visit us. Grant was happy to see them!
You can't see him but my dad is making Grant laugh!

Loving the books!

A couple of Wednesdays ago Debbie and Duane watched Grant so I could run errands and get my hair cut and they took these super cute pictures! Then Auntie Aimee took some cute book pictures in Chicago. Grant is more interested in looking and hearing books now that he's getting a little older! Enjoy!

Road Tripping

It's hard to believe it's been a week since we were in Chicago! We had a busy, fun-filled weekend! Grant was a trooper on the 8 hour drive!

We were so excited to celebrate with Katrina Nelson and Bryan Phelan on their wedding day! It was so great to see so many good friends and roommates! :)

We also got to see a lot of family during the weekend!

The picture documents Grant's first trip to Potbelly's, Uncle Aaron's favorite sandwich shop. It was so good! Thanks Aimee and Aaron for letting us stay with you!

G was a good sport being lugged all over Chicago.

Oh man, not again! I think Grant set a record for the most wardrobe changes in a weekend!

We were so blessed to witness Caleb and Jackson's baptism on Sunday. We got to hang out with them on Monday too! It was lots of fun!
Caleb and Erik are putting on a puppet show for Grant. So cute!


Back to MN for this Crew!

Grant is 3 months old!!

Grant has gotten really good at holding toys in his hands.

Here's a few pics of him showing off his stuff.

This video is right before naptime so he's a little tired.

Jeff has high hopes for this little guy!

Are you serious Clark?

Yesterday we had Christmas with Debbie's family in the twin cities. We had a lot of fun! Here are some great pictures of Grant from the day. Grant got a Jumparoo from his cousin Jack.

This was his first reaction...

but then he was like, this isn't so bad!

This is a video of Grant jumping around today!

This was the only picture we got of the three of us all day! We were having a great time in Ikea. Grant loved looking at all the colorful stuff.

HAPPY VALENTINE"S DAY!

Grant had a two month check up on Monday and we found out that he is now 14 lbs 5 oz and 24.25 inches long! He is in the 95th percentile for weight and 90th for height.

He is a good sized little boy!

Grant is 2 months old!!

Grant turned 2 months old on Tuesday but due to technical difficulties I couldn't post pictures right away. Grant got this shirt from friends of Jeff's family. Its one of my favorites!

Grant is so smiley now! I finally caught it on camera! We drove back to Duluth with Alison and Eli. They continued on to the twin cities after a short stop at our house. Thanks for the ride!

Playtime with Daddy! Grant is really good at holding his head up!

Playdate

When we were in Gladstone, my good friend Jessyee and her son Nehemiah came to visit us. The boys were facinated with each other! Its going to be fun when they are both a little older and can play together when we go to Gladstone!

Nehemiah is checking out the baby!

How cute is this picture?? Everyday Grant becomes much more interested in looking around at people and the world around him.

We had the hardest time getting a good picture because Grant kept crying when it was time to take the picture!
