Georgia weather

Well it is summer weather here in Georgia. Almost reached 80 degrees today. This has allowed Mommy and Grant to get out and explore the neighborhood which is now one of our favorite things to do during the day. Grant's first walk was yesterday and he loved it. He sat back in his stroller, closed his eyes, and just took in the sun and fresh air. Today we went for another walk and it was equally exciting. When the walk was over and we approached the house, Grant started screaming. He was not happy about the fun times being over.

We thought for a day or so that we had a baby who would sleep through the night. Grant slept 6 hours in his own bed Saturday night but it was just a fluke. Since then though, he has been doing very well sleeping in his bed for naps during the day. We have a little bit more work to do.

Grant and I went clothes shopping today. With his big beach vacation with Grandma and Grandpa Stair and Aunt Allie coming up at the end of the month, we needed to get some clothes for the warm weather. We bought Hawaiian shirts and shorts and even a pair of sandals. I had a ton of fun, but not Grant. His disapproval could be heard throughout all of Babies R Us.

Shots and Bubbles

Today was the day for Grant's 2 month checkup and shots. He weighed in at 11 pounds 7 ounces and was just over 22 inches long. Doctor said he is looking great. His shots were stressful for the poor baby and equally stressful for Mom. He has been napping since his appointment and screams every time he wakes. I'm sure his legs are very sore, he got 3 shots. We gave him some infant Tylenol and it seems to be working with pain and his fever.

A relaxing bath helped a lot for poor baby and caused a lot of entertainment for Mom and Dad. Grant is very gassy and decided that his time of relaxation would be a good time to pass the gas. We got a pretty good video of it all. It may or may not be one of those "embarrassing videos" we threaten to show a future girlfriend.



Thumbs up for being such a big boy!



A keeper for sure!



Nothing like a relaxing bath after a stressful day
