Happy Boy


Grady is such a happy little guy. This morning I heard Matt say to him in his crib, "You are the best baby in the whole world and I know that for a fact!" He never makes a peep in the morning...just content to sit there and play with his toes until his Papa comes to get him up.

Here he's wearing his favorite hat that his babysitter made for him. It's the only one that fits him these days. He's growing so fast. I'm 61 (and a 1/2!) inches tall, so now he is quite literally half the size of me at 30" long! I guess I look pretty funny when I'm lugging him around.

On Saturday, he had his first taste of anything other than breastmilk. I fed him some of Grammie's applesauce and he loved it. He learned last night how to whine to get more. And, when nursing yesterday, he thought it was pretty funny stuff when he was gnawing down. I assure you, it's not funny, but I had to keep from laughing myself since his dirty little grin and laugh was cracking me up, even while it hurt!

Just look at that face, you have to smile :)
