Mario Kart

Grady has taken to playing Mario Kart (Wii) these days. A couple of weeks ago I was explaining to him the difference between "Manual" and "Automatic" when we pick our cars to race.

Tonight he said this to me:

"Mom, you don't want to be MAN-ual. You want to be GIRL-ual, because you're a girl."

Swimming

Grady is learning to swim with this awesome floaty suit this summer. He is really independent in the water now and loves to jump in by himself.

Working Men

Yesterday Grady went to work with Kevin. If you know Kevin and his job, you know there is a lot of driving involved. Grady tends to get a little restless in the car sometimes.

While driving over a bridge Grady says, "Well, this'll cheer me up."

Kevin says, "What? Why?"

Grady: "Because I am really bored."

Heat Wave

Last night when Kevin put Grady to bed he was wearing only his underpants because it was at least 80 degrees in his room. I went to check on him a couple hours later and found him fully clothed (shirt, sweat pants, and socks) with three layers of blankets on himself. I was confused thinking that Kevin had put him in bed this way on such a hot day. When I inquired about it, Kevin said he had only put him in the pull up with a sheet over him. So Grady had decided he was cold I guess.

And, again, today for nap, Grady goes to bed with only underpants on and this is how he woke up, socks and slippers.

Under Construction

We are currently undergoing some changes to our blog. Please stay tuned as it will prove to be worth your while.

February

Well, a lot and nothing is happening at the same time. We are proud to be having a new addition to the family in September. Nikki is pregnant and feeling all the effects. Lots of throwing up and sleeping. Grady is growing and exploring new things all the time. He will be celebrating his 3rd birthday in March. I am working away and looking forward to some nicer weather so I can get outdoors and do some camping and fishing.

Sorry I don't have any good new pics!
