Aquarium


Yesterday we went with my parents and sister and her fam to the Long Beach Aquarium. It was a lot of fun but SO crowded. I was surprised at how much Grant liked it. Although, he was more interested in the little people he saw runnging around him like his cousin Zoe. She is always all over her "baby Grant". Here is a cute one I got of them giving each other kisses. Grant LOVES her. She always gets him to crack up.



Here is my dad with Grant. He was in heaven being with his two loves in life, grandchildren and fish!



Here we are sitting at the pool where you can touch the sharks.



Grant loved this pool with all the fish and sharks swimming by.


We walked over to Daves BBQ after the aquarium. It was such a nice day out, and the walk to restaurant was right by the water. Here is Grant at 5:00, He was out cold. I guess we wore the little guy out!! We had so much fun!

HAIR CUT!

My little guy got a hair cut. I was sooo sad because I LOVED his hair. It was really long on top and curly and I thought it was adorable. It looked like he had a mowhawk. Every time I would look at him I would laugh because his hair was so funny. His grandmas called him rooster and chicken little. Which cracks me up because it was so true. I kept wanting to put a pair of glasses on him and a tie and take a picture, but I never did. Glenn kept threatening that he was going to shave his head, so we finally compromised. Grandma Tanner worked her magic and gave him the cutest hair cut. I love it. Bye bye little rooster and chicken little! He looks so different to me, he looks older, and that kills me. I want to keep him young forever. I tried to take different shots so you could really see what his hair looked like before.

Seriously? What happened...

So, I was just curious, has anyone else experienced post pregnancy brain loss? I seriously can't believe how many things I forget and how many things I do and then think, did I really just do that? Like how I went to go kiss Glenn goodbye this morning and as I went to kiss him, I stuck my tongue out. What? I know...what in the world? For a moment my brain was thinking that that is how you kiss goodbye. OR like how I went to Target and got trapped in the dollar bin aisle, there was another cart on one side and the aisle was on the other so I couldn't get by, so instead of saying "Excuse me" and push my way through, I try to pick my cart up and push it over hers. She turned to me and said, "Oh....you don't need to do that ma'am I can move" and moved her cart. OR how I went to make oatmeal cranberry walnut cookies and realized I forgot the eggs, but then once I added the eggs, I remembered that I forgot the flour mixture too. Or how I found two (unused) nursing pads in the pantry one day on top of a can of soup. Or how I will turn the kitchen sink on and then walk away and not come back for awhile. These situations only name a few....but seriously....what happened? This kind of stuff happens ALL the time!

The PERFECT Day!










Today was perfect! Today had me feeling like I wanted 10 more babies...if I knew they would be just like Grant. Grant took 3 naps today (which isn't normal for him) and one of those naps was for a hour and a half straight. Since I never have more than a 20-35 minute break during his nap time, and only two of them in a day max, you would think that I would do something productive, but no. I made lemon bars....and then ate 9 of them! I know...sick! I just soaked in that uninterrupted time and just ate in peace =) But back to Grant, he didn't cry once all day. He is always a really good baby, but he does fuss, just not today, he was all smiles! Talk about melting your mommas heart! I LOVE that little boy of mine =)
