Our little Grady man is 3 months old!

Wow time really does fly by. Each day brings something new for us and our sweet little man. He continues to be the light of our life and is growing so fast. He seems to change everyday. We are so mesmerized by him and he is our best source of entertainment.
  • Grady loves to play! He is starting to like toys and loves the noises they make.
  • Sometimes he would rather lay down and play rather than be held and cuddled. He loves to shake the chain that he is holding onto in the picture.
  • He has a love/hate relationship with his hand. He loves to suck on it but hates when he pulls it way or pokes himself. It is usually is left hand that he sucks on.
  • He has so many funny faces. Strike a pose!
  • He can sit up really well and has a super strong neck.
Here are some other highlights:
  • He blows bubbles.
  • He loves to dance and kick his legs.
  • He loves to be sung to.
  • He thinks his Dad is so funny.
  • He has the cutest smile and Reg and I will pretty much do anything for a smile.
  • He goes to bed at 8:30, gets up once to eat and then goes back to bed till 7:30.
  • He coos and gurgles.
  • Oh and he loves that darn binky.

Happy Easter!!

We had a very nice Easter and ate way too much food, sugar, candy, etc! We listened to General Conference and I just can't get over how good Conference was. So grateful for the messages that were shared. Regan made the most delicious waffles for breakfast. Then we went to my parents during the break and had a nice Easter Dinner. We also looked for our Easter baskets. Regan's, of course was hid the hardest. He looked for a few hours before he found it. It was in the ceiling tiles in my room. Reg is such an easy person to tease cause he doesn't get mad and is such a good sport. Then we went to Reg's parents and visited with the family.

Grandma had to read Grady his Easter story in her new reading room.

My parents gave Grady the cutest little blue rocking chair with his name on it!

Special Day

Grady was blessed Sunday, March, 28th 2010. It was such a special day for Regan, Grady and me. Regan gave a beautiful blessing and I am so grateful to have such a wonderful husband. Grady was such a sweet boy. We don't think he felt very well that day but he was such a trooper being passed around by everyone. I came down with strep throat that day so that was rough. Even though it was a hard day, it ended up being one of the most special! I love my little Grady man so much!

Disneyland!

For Christmas this year Regan's parents gave everyone in the family a trip to DisneyLand! That means 26 people! They paid for everything, even the food. It was so generous of them! They are the best and I am so lucky to have them for my in-laws. Reg and I weren't sure if we were going to go though because Grady was only 5 weeks old but we thought about it and we both felt good about it and knew that we should go. Some of you may think we are crazy but we got the OK from our Doc and it was so much fun. That is an easy age to travel with because he just slept and ate and was so good. I look back and I can't believe how smooth the trip went with a 5 week old and 26 people. It was a blast and we can't wait to go back.


This is where I spent a lot of my time! I bet most of you didn't know there was a baby center in DisneyLand and California Adventure but there is and it is wonderful. There are places to nurse, change your baby, there are high chairs and microwaves. You can even buy diapers and baby food. It is such a cute little place and life saver.
Reg just had to have a Turkey Leg. We found a quiet little area to eat it because it is so messy and he said he could never eat one in public.
This is Grady in Small World. He loved it! He loved looking at all the lights.
Such a good little boy, just hanging out in his car seat.
Reg is the best Uncle and they all love him so much! He took a bunch of the boys on some rides while the adults went on Tower of Terror.
Waiting in line for Peter Pan. Cutest ride ever.
Best husband ever! He was so helpful and sweet even when I was being crazy stressed out.

On our way to Disney Land!
I can't believe my little boy is 6 weeks old! I missed his one month post so I thought I would do 6 weeks. We are having so much fun with him. He is such a good baby and growing so fast. We love him!
  • He now weighs 10 pounds!
  • He has started smiling and it the cutest thing ever cause of his dimple!
  • He is super happy and smiley in the morning.
  • He is sleeping really well at night. Hallelujah!
  • He went to disneyland and had alot of firsts: first plane ride, first ride, first trip, etc. (post to follow)
  • He visited his Great Grandma Dangerfield and Great Grandma Winder.
  • He really alert now and awake alot more. He loves lights and looking around the room.
  • He likes his baths now.
  • He is starting to lose his hair on the sides of the top of his head so it looks like he has a faux hawk.
  • This one is strange but he a type of fungus growing on his tongue. Gross, I know! At first we thought it was thrush but now we know that it is not. The Doctors aren't really sure what it is but they say it is harmless and nothing caused and it should just go away. We had to put this purple stuff in his mouth for it and it stains everything so of course his lips and tongue are stained. Poor guy!
