Grant's First Day of School

Grant started school this past Monday.  Here are some pictures of him getting ready to leave on his first day. It is hard to believe he is old enough to wear a backpack, pick out a book at the school library, and have to bring valentines to school!  My goodness!

Grant is in the Early Childhood program through Wolf Branch School.  Since we put him in speech early, he qualified for the program -- which I was SUPER EXCITED about!  He goes for 2.5 hours a day five days a week.  He also gets speech twice a week.  YIPEE for school! 

Ashley's Wedding Shower

We had my future sister-in-laws shower this weekend in Flora.  THe day of the shower about 5 inches of snow fell.  GREAT.  Luckily it still ended up being a great time.

Grant Rylee Turns 3

The appetizer pretzel from Gus's in STL.  Great easy thing for parties, plus they sell all kinds of dipping sauces to go with it.  Yummy!!!!

 Grant's birthday meal of choice:  Fett. Alfredo.

 Blowing out his candle!  First year he did it right. :)



First Night in the New Bed

Grant spent his first night in his new bedroom on the eve of his 3rd birthday.  We still need to pick up a new mattress for the top, so it has no bedding on it.  When the room is 'complete', I will post pictures ;)  However, thanks to Mimi Vicky, Grant had a twin mattress dropped off for him.  So we threw the new bedding on the bottom bunk and he transferred enough books/stuffed animals for one night and he was good to go! 

Happy 3rd birthday eve my sweet baby boy!
