9 Months Old

Grant is now 9 months old! I can't believe how fast the time has gone! He is a big guy with lots of personality! Here are some Grant-isms:
*He just learned how to crawl. He's been scooting around for some time but now he can get on all fours and GO!
*He likes to pull himself up on things. The other day he pulled himself up on the stairs, leaned back, and stood unassisted for about 1 1/2 seconds! I was a proud Mom.
*He eats everything! His favorite bites are shoes, socks, and paper. yuck!
*He loves to open and close doors. He and Jane will play that game and they both get laughing so hard!
*When I go in to get him in the morning, he is usually sitting up and grinning ear to ear.
*Grant LOVES music. It calms him, it excites him, it makes him stop whatever he is doing (including crying) and listen. Even when I sing to him (scary) he will look at me, calm as can be, with a smile on his face!
*His favorite time of the day is bath time. He loves to kick and splash and chew on bath toys. If we lay him on his back, he won't stop kicking until we sit him back up.
*His favorite toys are my watering can, stuffed animals, and anything Jane is playing with. He loves to wrestle with stuffed animals that are about his size--rolling around, biting, and growling at them.

We are so honored to have little "Bubba" Grant in our family!

He is so cute and so much fun!
Just so you know he's totally doing the SAME things as Seppi and he's 2 months older! I think we've already discussed this!
I had so much fun the other night and was bummed we had to leave so early, even though 9 is generally when I go to bed these days! haha.
Love you.
and I am very impressed with your green thumb! your garden will be the best in the west!

It was so great to snuggle him the other day. He is going to be such a fun little boy! He was so happy and cute the whole day. I love him more than BUTTER, and that's saying something.

Its weird to see how big Grant is. Last time I even saw you or Trent, you were still pregnant and we were in nursing school. He is one handsome boy--you guys make beautiful babies!
