The Big Month

Ever since we decided to get married in August 2007 we knew August would always be our big month. My birthday, Sean's birthday, and our anniversary fall within a week of each other. To add to that, we bought a house this month and Grant got his first hair cut. =)

Here is the house we bought in Arizona. We feel so blessed to have good jobs that allowed us to purchase this home.
Here is the kitchen. (All the furniture and accesories are from a staging company--they aren't ours unfortunately. )
Here is the foyer.
Here is our cute baby that loves to stand but can't crawl yet. Is that backwards? =)
We decided to buy some donuts one Saturday morning and this is the one Sean picked. Grant was reaching for it and wanting it badly. Sorry buddy, maybe in a few months.
This is Grant's new trick. He loves to turn his binky around and bite on the back or the side.
We celebrated our third annniversary on August 18th. We got Subways and went to a park with Grant and had a picnic. The weather was lovely. Thanks Grant for being our third wheel on our date. =) We wouldn't have it any other way.
Here is Grant getting his first haircut (it was really more like a tiny trim). His front hair/bangs were going in his eyes. He didn't mind it at all. (Maybe that's because we did it outside and he's always happy outside.)
The "after" shot.
We sure enjoyed the visits of Rachel and Norine. We love seeing family.
On the 20th it was my birthday. Thanks to all for making it special. I got earrings, Beauty and the Beast the DVD, a headband, a dress, fresh flowers, and nailpolish. I feel so loved!
Sean's birthday is coming up in a couple days and I will definitely post about that later. It has been a fabulous month for sure!!

Grant is so good looking! Does he ever stop smiling? I definitely think he and William have similar features--their hair even looks kind of similar.

Who gave you all those presents? Looks like you cashed in! I guess I was the one birthday slacker, huh?
