Go Blazers!

Graham dressed in his UAB colors today and got his picture made with Blaze. We debated about taking him to the game, but since they are not having the best season, Daddy did not want to go and Mommy was still not feeling well. It must be a lucky outfit because UAB beat Troy in a last second Hail Mary! (Now, we are not fair weather fans, but when you have been following a team for over a decade and they can never seem to pull it together, you get a little discouraged. Ok, I will get off my soap box now.) We hope Uncle Eric enjoyed the game. It is just as well we did not go because Mommy could not have taken the suspense!



First Grandparent's Day

Graham celebrated with Nana and Papa the day before Grandparent's Day and with Grandmother and Granddaddy the Saturday after Grandparent's Day when they were visiting for Daddy's birthday lunch. He made them cards at daycare. =)


Toile - finally!

By now, you all know that I love toile, but with little boys there isn't much of an opportunity to use it. And since we didn't go with a toile nursery, I was so excited to find these toile pajamas. It came with a matching bib and outfit too. Those are bulls with horns on his feet and it is covered in daddy and baby farm animals. Also, you can see that it is not easy to pose Graham and take his picture now! He got that silver rattler from Nana the night he was born and it distracted him long enough for me to get a picture with him somewhat still.


Labor Day Weekend

On Sunday of Labor Day weekend, we went to visit the Johnson family. Cousin Cole is into pearl button western shirts so when I found this outfit for Graham, I just had to get it knowing it would be perfect for some pictures on the farm. Graham hated the boots but did not seem to mind the hat. Cousin Ellie got in a few pictures but Cousin Lindy was not feeling photogenic that day. Papa, where was your hat?








Little Drummer Boy

The Franks family celebrated Granddaddy's birthday on September 3. Graham had a great time playing the drum with Uncle Doug. Uncle Alan left his aquarium behind so Graham got to meet Nemo too. =)





7 Months Old

Mommy is so far behind on her blogging! All three of us has been sick a lot lately so I have not had a lot of free time or felt like extra time at the computer, but I will do my best to catch up.

Graham started pulling up to his knees on the same day he started crawling. That same week he started pulling all the way up so we had to hurry and lower his crib. It is just not the same. My baby is growing up so fast! He is definitely into everything now. I told someone he was mobile and he asked me if it felt like Graham has eight arms now. That is exactly what it is like! Getting him dressed in the morning is like a wrestling match. Still he is so precious and so much fun!

When we first lowered the crib, we left the bumper in as you can see in this picture but it is gone now since Graham just used it to pull up on.
