Good vs Evil

Grant is entering what we were warned about as terrible twos. Although, its a very odd stage. He can go a week and be a complete Saint, only to followed up with a whirlwind of emotions that come from no where. He is into his tricycle right now and he LOVES baseball. Ever since his trip to OKC with my team, he has a new found fetish for hitting and playing catch over and over and over again. Also big right now, SIDEWALK CHALK! Colors and shapes (as long as it somewhat resembles Thomas the Train!!)
We are loving the heatwave we are having right now as it means more outside play for Grant. He is very fond of both of our nieghbors girls. We have a set of sisters on one side that are 8 and 11 and they are great with Grant. They play with him all the time. On the other side is Alyssa (whom Grant has nicknamed Bug) She is 14 months old and Grant just absolutely loves her. Its good for us, they entertain each other!!!
Happy weekend.....

Our 4th of July was ____________

complete insanity!!!! We started the weekend off with our annual par-tay!! Good times, good food, good company. Grant was most interested this year in snakes, smoke bombs, roman candles and OMG does the kid love sparklers. We then spent the actual 4th with my parents, Mike had gone back to work and GiGi (Great Grandma Bea) We ate a great BBQ dinner and blew stuff up outside. Then comes the 5th, we went to the pool with Alivia and Mallory. Grant had a really good time despite the fact the forecast called for 88 and we got 75, maybe....it was FREEZING, but I forget that kids could care less if it were snowing outside, as long as they are in the water!!! The next brought pool time at home, hanging out with the neighbors and trying to relax for the coming week! It's been so nice here lately, but the heat is finally coming. Grant is really starting to talk about Santa. He's very interested in being a good boy as he knows that Santa watches his every move. Our new found late night hobby is catching lightning bugs with the neighbor girls and keeping them in our lightning bug cage that Alivia's Great Grandpa made for us. He absolutely loves it.....

Miss you all!
