Change seems to happen in clusters

As a little guy, Graham is constantly changing, but the big changes seem to happen in clusters. Last week, we finally saw the first tooth. The first indication was how much he was sticking his tongue out. Sure enough, he was rubbing his tongue over that new tooth! By the end of the week we could see the second tooth.
Graham continues to roll around but has been getting less satisfied with it as his mode of movement. From the sitting position, he will lean forward, have one knee, one foot and both hands on the ground, but has not yet figured out he can move. Tuesday he did a brief army crawl. Wednesday he was army crawling almost as much as he rolls.




Paper seems to be as much fun as any of his toys. I caught him reading the paper the other day. Chris was pleased to hear that Graham found an issue of Bowhunter magazine and tore some of the pages out. Chris took this as a sign that Graham will also be a bowhunter!


As you all know, Lent just started. Graham is still trying to decide what to give up for lent. He is trying to decide if it would be better to give up naps or toys in the tub. He was leaning toward the naps. Mom says naps are not an option, and he doesn't need to sacrifice his tub enjoyment. He did get his first ashes!


Graham is a good eater - he has yet to try anything he doesn't like. He watches us eat and wants it. We try to tell him he is too young for coffee, but he really wants what is in our mugs!
Last week was Daddy's birthday so we e-mailed him a picture with birthday wishes. It took a few shots before Graham would hold the paper at the right angle so Daddy would see it. It made Daddy's day!
