Little Boys


My boy is all about cars and trucks....literally. Someday I will take a picture of the plethora of little cars he's collected and you will be shocked. Notice how his jeans have holes in them? Nana even patched them over Christmas, but that's wearing now. This is because if we're at home my child spends the majority of his time on the floor with his cars....skiting them and his knees all over the place. We now have four pairs of pants (pjs included) that have holes and the rest are soon to follow!

Grant got this little roadster when he was one years old for Christmas and he still rides it everywhere. Our house is perfect for it actually, with wood floors on the main level he basically has a race track. Notice the WA licence place (yes, he still asks about once a month if we can move back) and his luggage attached to the back....today he was headed to the bank, to deposit some money. I suggested a trip to Europe and Grant said, "Sure, I have just enough payment, because I was headed to the bank!"

Have I mentioned how much I love this kid?!

I'll take credit for taking the license plate from his bookshelf and jimmy-rigging it to the roadster. Yeah, I'm a cool aunt like that!

He is so imaginative. Love that he tugs luggage around with him. He's so cute, Kim.

If you guys decide to move back I could make room for you all...somewhere ;)...you just let me know! I am loving our all wood floors too, Tanner can move in the walker pretty well with the floors!

All of a sudden Grant is looking so much older, maybe it is the haircut. I am a sucker for big boy haircuts on little ones!

Grant makes me all excited for having a boy!

And I am SO excited for you little girl! I love the different experience that you get when having a boy and girl! It is wonderful!

Yep, ALL boy with a wonderful soft heart. Just the perfect combination.

Do you have a Shopko in Alabama? That is wear I buy all the kids pants because they have a KIDS PROMISE on all their kids clothing. If you get a hole, rip, the zipper breaks, etc...they will replace them for FREE. The item has to be the same size and style. A couple of years ago Alex went through five pairs of jeans in one year--boy was I grateful for the KIDS PROMISE. The final hole I replaced them again and then put them in the box for the next child.

He is so cute! I love the things that he says! Cracks me up! Bria loves him to by the way! She wanted me to make that clear! :)
