The baby years go by so quick,
Before you know it, they are gone in a lick!
Each day that passes they grow so fast,
Those baby moments did hardly last.
Little bundle of tiny joy,
Is now a bundle of toddler boy!
Now you can do so many things,
Now you think you can spread those wings.
You climb on a chair and think you’re cool,
Until you fall and look like a fool.
You throw a fit to get your way,
You throw a fit when you can’t play.
You no longer peacefully go down for a nap,
You now scream, kick, flail, and flap.
The bottle days have been gone for awhile,
My floor, lately, has been a crumb pile.
You think the toilet is a place to play,
And toilet training seems so far away.
My beautiful house will never be the same,
Dents, dings, and damage and you are to blame.
You walk up to strangers on the street.
You’re not scared of them, you don’t miss a beat.
You will run away when I tell you to come here,
You laugh at mom and have no fear.
You think that hitting is a good thing to do,
Getting in trouble is no big deal to you.
I have never in my life seen such a child,
Loving trouble-maker, who is quite wild.
Wondering how I could have such a son,
Sometimes wondering “WHAT HAVE I DONE!”
Realizing you are half mom and half dad,
Maybe after all you are not so bad.

Playgroup at the Bridgeman's New House
Jacque (Rinehart) Bridgeman recently moved to Troy; which is about 15/20 minutes from my house. They bought a beautiful new home and had us up for a play group this week. Grant had a ball.
Here is Jacque with her new baby Morgan.
Grant with the most awesome toy (in his opinon) in the world.
Random Shots from the Past Week

St. Louis Mills Play Center.
His new ducky poncho bath towel from Kimmy (hand me down from Cari/Cali, so we have two of them!)
Ready for Some Fireworks and No Place to Go!
The Caravia family was ready in their red, white, and blue, but the fireworks in Flora got POSTPONED due to rain..........so typical.
My little patriotic boy.
Grant's new bouncy blow up castle at grandma/grandpa's house. It came with inflatable swords and balls like a ball pit. This thing was HUGE was completely inflated. Good thing dad has an air compressor.

Playdate at Tracy's New House
We had a LARGE playgroup at Tracy's new house this week. Here is Grant sitting with Tracy. Like she doesn't have enough going on with Logan, a new baby, and a new house, that Grant felt the need to bother her as well.
Some of the participants!
Playdate at the Parcel's
Grant and I went up to Martinsville for a last minute playdate. Megan had a day off and I was in Flora, so I headed up for the morning. We had a fun time!
Jackson, Hayden, & Grant
Poolside Fun
We have spent a lot of time over at Kimmy's pool so far this summer. We are very lucky to have an "open door policy" when it comes to her pool! Cari and Cali got Grant his own set of frogs, seen below, since he kept playing with theirs!
