Grady's time with "Team Grandma"

So as I mentioned in the last post, Eric and I just spent 4 nights in Turks and Caicos alone while the Grandmas came to stay with Grady.  They took plenty of pictures and told us lots of stories when we returned, so I will do my best to recapture it here.

We left on Thursday morning, and they took G to Gymboree:

Apparently the hugging and kissing was in full effect, as usual:

This is one of his favorite new activities - sitting in a chair (by himself) and "reading" a book.  He will often describe what he sees or repeat words that he knows go with that book.  I think he truly wishes he could read already!

playing outside with neighbor-friends (or their toys, at least):

playing in the back with his new Elmo sprinkler:

more reading - the "hushhhh" book:

playing with Drew (or "Dew", according to Grady):

Apparently the G'mas thought it would be fine for G to run around half naked! :)

He loves Drew's Mama, Miss Darby:

at the pool:

snacking:

a visit to the book store (and their choo choo, of course):

In his new outfit, with the Grandma who brought it for him (hat compliments of the other G'ma, of course):

They went to the mall and almost forgot him at the build-a-bear place (just kidding!):

the play area:

eating breakfast:

and eating play-doh:

rolling in his "stuffies" (which he will say now):

Playing with Drew again:

Grady loves Drew's doggie, Hershey:

So that's it!  Grady was fed and in one piece when we returned, so we think the Grandmas were a success! :)

And I almost forgot - G's first 2-year molar is 1/2 way through!  It is on his upper right.  I am glad to see some progress at least!
