Grant's 18 Months

Grant turned 18 months old last week, but we didn't have his check-up until today. We switched pediatricians to one that's much closer to our house, so now we have actual percentages instead of ranges. He's 27 lbs. 12 oz. (73%ile) and 33 in. tall (69%ile). He had quite a growth spurt over the last few months and is catching up to Nolan very quickly! He loves to be Nolan's little shadow, doing everything that he does. They have the most fun together doing things that they're not supposed to be doing (go figure), such as standing on the tables, jumping on the couches, and throwing food. There's no doubt they keep me on my toes! Grant's vocabulary is expanding daily and he is now getting really frustrated when I can't understand what he's trying to say. He's also really enjoying his days at Parent's Morning Out (as am I)!

 

 Thanks to Grandma Creasy for these awesome Browns outfits! We're looking forward to her visit this weekend!

September

My parents came to visit again for Labor Day weekend and my birthday. We've been really lucky this year to see them fairly often, considering how far apart we live! My dad almost always has some Jelly Belly's around for Nolan and Grant. Here's a video of the dance they have to do to get one!

My boys made me a delicious cake and got me an ipad 2 for my birthday! Mike has been working locally all summer, so I've been able to use his ipad and I've gotten pretty addicted. It makes my elliptical workouts so much easier when I can play games and surf the internet. I'm very excited to have my own (although Nolan and Grant seem to think it belongs to them)!
Nolan has started playing soccer and had his first game this weekend. He doesn't go after the ball much, but he runs his little heart out up and down the field- and he sure does look cute in his uniform!

And these are just some other recent ones of the boys...
