I Just Felt Like Crawling

One day sitting around the house...I just felt like crawling. So I did.

If there were a closeup picture of me it would probably look like this.

I do love me some bathtime.

Of course I look great here. But notice Mom, this is how she likes the pictures cropped.

One advantage of being able to sit up is that you can actually see into the boxes of toys.

It only looks like I'm reading. What I'm actually doing is drumming.

This pretty much sums up what we all think about this cold weather.

My first Thanksgiving was fun...this is a rare moment of alone time.

Other times I was being held by Papa Danny...

or Grandma Cheri...

or one of my cousins like Lauren. It was a lot of fun!

The chances of getting a really good picture out of this group, well, it's not that great.

This is the longest post of all time.

"Blue."

Rewind to Halloween, I was a lion.

A lion and a frog hugging, who would have thought?

Tis The Season To Get Ready For Christmas

We keep saying we'll do a better job with these websites but for some reason we would rather just play all the time.

Don't tell Colin, but most of these toys that he plays with are just my old toys.

It was nice to see some family on Thanksgiving...and to have a battle royale with my cousins Jake and Luke.

Grandma and I filled out our Christmas lists. In case you were wondering, this year I'm asking for "whatever Santa gets me, he'll pick out something good."

The weather outside has been frightful and bundling up and playing in the first snow was so delightful.

We did finally come to our senses and got out of the cold to come in and put up the Christmas tree.

Funny thing, we have a lot more ornaments lower on the tree this year.

With all this talk about Christmas, you're probably wondering what I was for Halloween. Ribbet.

Giddy Up, We Got A Pumpkin

So you already know that I'm three now. What you might not have known was that I had like 73 parties. Also, I'm getting taller.

This is how a real cowboy rides.

Reflecting on the meaning of life while thinking that if I just had the chance, I'm sure I could have invented the wheel.

What a funny looking flower! Seriously, have you ever seen a flower with hands? Everything else looks right, but those hands are just kind of silly.

You can't tell but I'm in a staring contest with a buffalo. I won.

It is a family tradition for us to go to the pumpkin patch. It may quite possibly be one of my favorite things to do.

One thing you don't want on your pumpkin is "yucky." Keep that in mind.

In the end it came down to these two little beauties. It was a pretty rigorous process.

This is my fourth p-patch trip so I'm pretty much an expert by now.

One thing I've learned over time is that cows smell funny. And by funny, I mean they are stinky.

The best part about Halloween is carving up the pumpkin. No wait, it's going to stranger's doors and asking them for candy. Yeah, that's way better.

We did a cat this year. Meoooooooooow.

Alright then, that's it. See ya!

This 1/2 Year Old Has A Tooth

Try to think back to when you turned one-half. What a memorable day. You know they say all babies are cute, but come on, not this cute.

This is the bumbo seat and it can't hold me for much longer.

Long-time fans of gradyworld will probably recognize this shirt. You might remember a slightly younger Grady posing in this back in 2005.

A few weeks a go we went to the patch to check out some pumpkins. I had to fuel up as soon as we got there.

Finding the perfect pumpkin is not something we take lightly. Of course it's hard to keep your focus when you have to deal with these clowns.

As you already know, updates to this site or sporadic. Who knows when this was but I remember that it wasn't nearly warm enough for him to run through that sprinkler. But hey, what can you do?

There's only two places I like avocado. In my belly and on my face.

Raise your hand if you've already celebrated Thanksgiving. That's right, we went to see Great Grandma on October 19 for Thanksgiving. Just go with it.

Grandpa was there for Thanksgiving too. Yes, I still mean Thanksgiving, in October.

One day Grady rattled off about 10 names of people he said were his best friends and Aunt Kelli was one of them. Yea Kelli! If you're reading this, you should just assume you were too.

Dad put me in these PJs with the legs that were too short. It took Mom all of about 45 seconds to change that when she got home.

As you read at the top I got my first tooth. Pretty cool huh?

Playing Hooky

Thursday was Daddy and Grady Day. Dad picked me up from school after lunch and we played hooky.

The best place to be on a beautiful day is the ballpark. I took my ball...

...and my glove.

This is right after we got off the escalator. The funny thing is we didn't have to ride the escalator because we didn't sit at the top. But we rode it anyway because it was our day we wanted to.

For most of the game I sat in this seat. A nice man and woman gave us the tickets when we walked up. As you can see there was plenty of room to stretch out. Gotta love the Royals in September.

After the sixth inning we got up to walk around a little.

There was construction going on all over the place. Many of you may know that I have already said I want to be a construction worker when I grow up. I tried to talk to some of the workers but I guess they couldn't hear me over all the banging.

In case you were wondering the Royals won 12-0 which was their 7th win in a row. And I fell asleep before we were out of the parking lot. Good times.
