Grant Walker is 6 Months Old!

Grant will be 6 months old on Monday, January 26, 2009! It is amazing to me how quickly time has passed. He is hitting all of his milestones perfectly for a boy his size. He is rolling over constantly. He is trying so hard to crawl. He gets up on his knees or sometimes on his toes sticking his little booty up in the air and pushes himself forward--there is only one small problem--his face in rooting around on the blanket or the carpet. He has not figured out how to coordinate his arms & legs at the same time to maximize movement. Grant thinks Daddy is so funny. Tim gets him laughing so hard with the games they play. We need to get some new pictures posted of him. I will try to do that soon.

We got some get pictures of Grant with Britt & Brodie. Grant looks like a monster baby sitting with them, but they were so cute together. I hope you all have a great week!

Happy New Year!







Well, it has been quite a while since I last posted you on Grant. So sorry about that. . . my New Year's Resolution is to be a better blogger (yeah, right--who am I kidding). We have a had a busy couple of months since my last post. Grant is continuing to get so big--he is five months old. He weighs 19 lbs and is over 28 inches long. We had to convert him over to the "big boy car seat." He is rolling over all the time and trying so hard to sit up. He gets so frustrated that he cannot sit up without assistance. He has also started teething. Experienced parents and doctors say that his bottom two teeth are coming, but Tim & I cannot tell if he is making any progress. He wants to chew on everything and just grinds his gums together--they must hurt so bad.

We had a good first Christmas with Grant. Grant got all kinds of great toys, books, clothes. He is so blessed to have so many people that love him. The only thing that made it not a great Christmas is that we were all sick with the stomach flu. That put quite a damper on the festivities, and unfortunately, we infected my mom & Tim's mom in the process. It has taken Grant a full week to start eating normally again.

Grant has the sweetest disposition. He is constantly smiling and cooing! Tim & I are amazing at how lucky we are to have such a great little boy!
