Graham and GG are sharing some stories...

Graham just loves playing on Grandma's floor!

Graham and Grandma take a walk together...

Graham loves hanging out with Grandma and Grandad Mellon...

He's dreaming of Mom's lasagne, but since this boy loves to eat, he's settling for his BRAT diet...

Graham plays peek-a-boo with GG

Grandma's kitchen is full of fun things to bang and toss...

He's only eating toast and cereal, but he's still trying out his travel booster just in case he's well enough by the end of the week to travel to VA.

Despite "stage 2" of his virus (the "runny stage"), Graham is back on his feet, making noises and playing... it's good to have him back!!!

... poor, sweet, sick boy...

Grahamy is 10-months old today! Unfortunately, we didn't have much of a chance to celebrate since he was knocked out cold by a stomach virus (possibly the rotavirus) in the middle of the night. We spent a good part of the day in the emergency room because he was refusing all liquids and became terribly dehydrated. Graham received an IV in his foot and came home to rest. He still has a high fever, but otherwise, he's on his way to recovery. Thanks to everyone for the kind phone calls. We'll keep the information flowing. As the doctor in the ER reminded us, we could keep him in a box, but he's a kid and he likes to play with his friends, so he's going to get sick...

Dad and Graham head out for a walk while Mom vacuums (Graham is scared of the vacuum)...

Graham has decided to throw his cheese cubes to the floor... a mess seems to follow him wherever we go...

Graham lunches with some Kindermusik buddies after class...

Graham really doesn't want Nana to leave!!! He gets upset when we say "Bye-Bye Nana!!!"

... such good buddies...

Graham spends his days charming Nana...

Grahamy is so lucky to have his Nana here for a week while Mom recovers from her oral surgery!

We're playing "kiss attack" here...

Mom needs lots of ice and lots of hugs from Graham in order to survive her dry socket and resulting locked jaw.

Dad is sharing his lunch with Graham...

Graham's a really unique kid!!! He prefers his plastic rings and balls to his flashy toys because they get his imagination going. He does like to bang his rings on his fancy table though...

... sweet moments...

... Graham singing...

MMMM... the sound Graham makes when he eats his meals...

Nana's here to play with Graham since Mom had her wisdom teeth taken out this week...

Happy Birthday Aunt Hannie!!! XXX
