Rub a Dub Dub, Playin' In The Tub

Grant LOVES to take a bath. If you ask him if he is ready to get out he shakes his head and says uh-uh. He loves his letters and his duck!!



Ouch, Biting!!

OKAY...my sweet Grant got bit AGAIN at daycare today. I was warned that this 1 yr. old class was a biter class but I guess I didn't think it would actually happen. Dumb Me! The first time happened about 2 weeks ago. He came home with a bite on his arm..like a full open mouth teeth print bite!! Then today.......I stayed late at school today to get some work done and they called me and said that he got bit right above his check bone, below the eye. ODD PLACE, I know! Only my child! So I asked how it happend, was there not enough supervision. BUT, as a teacher I understand that things happen in a blink of an eye and you have to tend to another child and then the mom side of me doesn't understand. I want them to watch those kids like hawks!! But that is nearly impossible. He screamed and cried. It looks bad to me. It looks almost like a burn. I hope it doesn't leave a scar. Poor Soul!!!

THE BEACH

The beach was so much fun! We went to Lulu's Friday evening and the wait was an hour and a half and it was very humid due to the rain. So we decided to not stay. However, we all did buy Lulu Shirts (which was the whole reason why I wanted to go!!). We ate and went back to the hotel. We walked out the beach at night..Grant couldn't really see but he could feel the sand between his toes and he really liked it!! I couldn't wait to see his face the next morning! Then we decided to get in the pool. He hated it!! It was very cold! So we didn't stay in it long! we anticipated the rain so we got up early and went on down to the beach. Grant LOVED IT! I wish you could have seen his face when he saw the waves and when they hit him!! It was priceless. We would sit right where the water comes up to shore and he would just laugh when it got to him. He was throwing sand all in his hair. It sprinkled a bit while we were down there. Then it was time to head back in. Luckily, we got out early because it began flooding! Even though it rained, we still had a great time watching Grant experience new things! Got tons of pics. I couldn't choose and I still can't figure out how to do collages on my photoshop. I can't do anything on photoshop!! I really need help!!
Here Comes The Big Wave!!!

After a wave hit him!

Wow, it's been a while!










Wow, so sorry it has been a while. As you know, we moved....so obviously we had to turn our internet off until we got moved. Well, we moved in with Boomer's mom for 2 weeks until we could close on our house. The weekend that we were moving....Friday we began...Saturday morning early Boomer got a call about his dad and then Sunday morning Boomer's dad passed away,as most of you already know. It has been a really difficult time for him so please keep him in your prayers. So then of course once we finally got situated, I had to get my school stuff moved into my classroom. Those who know me, I throw nothing away! So I had a truck, trailor and my SUV loaded!!! It really stinks moving this much stuff SO MANY TIMES!! But I can assure you, we are HERE FOR A LONG TIME!!!! SO we just got internet Wednesday....YAY!! Back to the land of the living.
We have been doing well, everything is unpacked and mostly in its place except the guest room stuff. I would like to do a little painting in the house, but I tell you I just don't think I have the energy nor the time!
School started on Friday and THANK GOODNESS it started on Friday. I was so exhausted. I did not want to get up this morning!!! I have a good bunch..just chatty. I have two cop kids!!! One trooper and one Sherriff's office..So I think I have my bases covered now!!!! HAHA! BOOMER IF YOU ARE READING THIS...BABY I DON'T SPEED I PROMISE ;)LOVE YOU!
Grant started his daycare. We love it!! The people there are wonderful and very loving to him and reassuring to me! He cries in the morning still. That is just the most terrible thing! I hate it when he cries like that. I feel like I am abandoning him. But it is apapart of life. We pull up now and he just LOOKS at the building and starts huffing and his eyes get big and he starts to whine...we don't even make to the front door. Its kind of funny but so sad too!!
We are headed to the beach next weekend and I am so excited for a vacation. Boomer and I have ALWAYS gone to Six Flags ever since we were married except last year (pregnant) and this year. So we are headed to the beach with little man in tow! I can't wait to see what he thinks of hte sand and water!!!! We so need a break..moving the last two summers, having a baby and family things....IT IS TIME!! So there will definitely be more pics to come!!
