Sigh

These updates get fewer and further between! Graham has been sick. Again. We were treating him for bronchitis which turned out to be croup and an ear infection. I think we're finally on the road to recovery. Chad has been taking 1/2 days in the mornings and I've been taking 1/2 days in the afternoons to take care of the little guy. He's eating well again and wanting to play ALL the time. Now we just need to get rid of that stupid cough...
In spite of all of the sickness, we've made a few milestones. Graham LOVES his apple juice (half water, half juice) and likes to try to drink it from his sippy cup. We're still working on hand-eye coordination and he gets frustrated when he doesn't get it in his mouth just right.
This is one of his favorite things to do with Dad. It's great when he's starting to get fussy, but not quite ready for bed or a nap. This is highly entertaining for all of us...especially when Graham tries to pull and eat Chad's head!
Graham loves peas, carrots, pears, green beans, sweet potatoes... He DOES NOT like bananas! :)Graham loves tummy time now. He likes to flop over onto his back right away. He's getting really close to being able to roll back over to his belly from his back. He gets stuck half way on his side. We hold out a hand for him and he grabs it for help over.
He's also getting really close to sitting up on his own. He still needs some support, but he's getting stronger! He loves his stacking cups Aunt Becky gave him. He spends quite a long time trying to pick out just the right color and size while I make sure he doesn't topple over.
I'm sure we'll have many more updates to come soon! Graham will want to share his Halloween costume with everyone. We miss you and love you!

Wow - he has totally changed. He is looking less and less like a baby. It won't be long until he is mobile. It is good that he likes to eat so many different things. We were always lucky with that too. I bet he will have fun Thanksgiving!
