Lovely

Life has been just lovely lately. This is such a fun time for our family of three. Occaisionally someone will ask me how I like being a mom and I don't really know how to describe it. I love it. It's so fun to get to play with my little buddy everyday and care for him and teach him. I'm so grateful he's in our lives. In church on Sunday we sang the hymn, "God Loved Us So He Sent His Son." Of course this song is referring to the atonement of our Savior, but in another way, I thought of Heavenly Father's love for Sean and me and how He sent us another one of His sons, Grant. We feel very loved.

Here's how I find my baby when I go get him in the morning (not on the changing table, just with his feet out). He kicks his feet out of his jammies without unsnapping anything. He's a wiggler for sure.

Grant and I enjoy the sunshine and try to get outside everyday.
After a terrific stake conference, Sean and Grant pose for a quick picture. Sean is excercising his freedom to sport facial hair now that he's done with BYU.
On this day Grant got the "Worst-dressed Baby Award". His outfit evolved throughout the day (due to changing temperatures, activities, and accidents) and somehow he ended up looking like this. Don't worry, I wouldn't let him out of the house like this. =)
Our neighbors planted some beautiful daffodils and tulips so we decided to enjoy them.

Here is Grant trying out his new (used) bumbo chair. I love how he rests his arms on the side like a little throne.

I love his pictures. He is a BIG boy! Sean, nice facial hair too! Wowsers! =) Don't worry about the "worst outfit"--my kids dress like that every day. =)

I love the outfit! Joel's thinking he needs to grow a beard now that he's free, but I'm thinking not so much. It's good to know he's got company. :)
