Vikings/Packers

Well, a boy should probably be a fan of the same team as his daddy ~ argh.

In the spirit of male bonding and family unity, I dressed Grady in his Packers jersey for the first big rivalry game. Good thing, since the Packers won. The jersey hurt me worse than the loss!

Yes, I'm wearing purple!

Visiting the Farm

Such joy! A beautiful fall day to visit Moelter's Grassroot Meats and play with Bear. Grady was thrilled to play with Bear, who is the friendliest, sweetest little dog!

Grady and this cow stood looking at each other for a priceless moment; then, Grady started running toward him and the cow ran away.

Telling Auntie Jean about the cows.

Fall Afternoon

Grady yells, "Weeee" when he swings. Too cute.

Grady and Mommy ~ I never knew my heart could be this full of love!

Sweet Boy!

Businessbaby

Multi-tasking: talking on the phone, using the computer, sucking on the paci and looking adorable.

Summer Fun at Como Zoo

In front of the iconic carousel. Grady enjoyed the horsey, once he got used to it going up and down.

Riding the kiddie train with Daddy. I'm still not sure how John fit into the little car!

The Littlest Dragon

A dragon who does martial arts?

Grady and his friend Katherine, the adorable kitty.

Halloween was tons of fun! Grady and I went to Osceola with Lynn and Kate to participate in the business trick or treat. We left at 10:15 and arrived home at 1:00 after much trick or treating and a bit of lunch at Subway. Grady couldn't stay awake long enough to get out of his costume.

After a two hour nap, Grady, Daddy and I ate an early supper and headed out for more trick or treating. We arrived home at 8:50 ~ holy catfish! He was exhausted, but he had a blast.

One highlight occurred at Grandma's house when a little girl came up dressed as Elmo (it was a great costume). Grady came running to the door when I said Elmo was outside; he nearly skidded to a stop with his eyes as big as saucers ~ imagine, Elmo at Grandma's!

Today, Grady and I are both a bit exhausted; he took a three hour nap!

Grady-Touchdown Baby!

Grady loves to run and score touchdowns, as you will see in the following video.
