Here's Graham wearing his medal like Curious George (it came with one of his books). It's a struggle to get it off him right now...

Little Mozart...


And for the moms... Here's Roo at 32 weeks...

We spent a good part of today at Latta Plantation, which is located just a few miles north of Charlotte. It's a circa 1800 cotton plantation with a real farm. Graham loved the chickens! After conversing with the chickens for quite some time, we finally toured the rest of the farm...

Mooing at the cow...
Pointing out the horses...

An old-timey buggy...
A real well and bucket! Grahamy wanted to see it in operation of course...
A cottage with lanterns, wooden bowls and a real bed. Grahamy claimed it as his own.
An OWL shirt from cousin Maddy... it's already in rotation!!! Thanks to the Schneiders!!!
And here's a picture of Grahamy and Kelsey, our wonderful babysitter. Kelsey was my dad's student in Asheville and is now attending Queens here in Charlotte. Sadly, she is home for the next few months (remember summer breaks?), but we're eagerly awaiting her return. And, we'll be +1 more at that time...

EVEN MORE PARK PICTURES...

Graham now climbs the "fireman ladder" all by himself!

This little girl really wanted to play with Grahamy and she even followed him into his hiding place. Pretty funny!

Here are some weekend pictures. We spent a lot of time on Saturday and Sunday working in our yard. Graham was such a big help! He especially enjoyed tossing around the pine straw...


Look where we found Grahamy on Sunday afternoon... I'm pretty sure he exceeds the weight limit on this bassinet, so we pulled him out right after I snapped this picture.
Graham loves to walk around in BIG shoes!
Messing around with Daddy...

Saturday morning at the coffee shop...

And a couple from last week... Graham still loves his little sandbox, especially when he gets to add water to the mix!

BIG SLIDE!!!

Check out the BIG SLIDE Grahamy tackled repeatedly at the park today... After a round of successes, I left my "catcher post" and stepped back for some pictures. He looks like such a big boy in these pictures!!! We reached 80-degrees today, so expect lots more park pictures...








And a couple post-bath pictures... Graham loves showing off his towel skills!

Here are some random park pictures from this last week...




Graham was listening to his music in his room one morning and when I checked on him, I found him on our bed flipping through a Red Sox book...
Here are some pictures of Daddy spinning Grahamy like a bug in a web (We've been reading a lot of "Charlotte's Web" these days)...


And here's a painting Grahamy made for Ganny this past week. It's the first time he actually created something "sort of" recognizable and then described it for me. Look closely and you'll see the sun at least...
