Good Clean Fun

Mobility!

We now have a crawling baby. It has its advantages and disadvantages. Sure, Grady can entertain himself more and tires himself out with all the crawling... but we also have discovered just how many things in our house are hazardous! Luckily with a dog-proof house, it's not nearly as bad as it could be. However, Grady still seems to find every leaf, hair tumbleweed, and power cord in the house. We are having a lot of fun though - he really enjoys chasing the dogs, cats and Swiffer Vac.

He is fully eating solid (baby) foods now - it's obvious that the bottle just doesn't quite satify him anymore. His favorites are the veggies! Sounds crazy, but it's true. Sweet potatoes and peas go down pretty quick. He's also learning to feed himself puffs and freeze-dried yogurt.

Now that spring is here, we have really enjoyed getting outside with Grady. I've been taking him for walks most evenings, and sometimes Justin brings Achilles and Maya along. Grady LOVES walking with the dogs. He laughs and laughs at them.

We went to WV for St Patrick's Day and road bowling weekend - it was the first overnight stay away from mom and dad! Grandma and Grandpa Hunter kept Grady one night, and he stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Loftis (and Great Grandma Purbaugh) another night. Justin and I got a cabin with some friends close to Stonewall Jackson Resort. We also got to see Amy and meet Owen for the first time! We went for a nice walk at the river walk with our baby boys.
