1-24-08 Four-month doctor appt

I forgot to post that I had my 4 month doctor appointment. I weighed 16.28 lb (74th %-tile) and am 25.79 in long (76th %-tile). I also got some shots. The doctor said that I looked great and was "very strong."

1-27-08 Fun weekend with Grandpa and Grandma Dunn

Grandpa and Grandma Dunn came to visit me on Thursday and stayed until Monday. We had so much fun together. Grandma brought me a whole bunch of clothes and some other goodies. They got to see me jump in my jumperoo and Grandpa kept saying, "I hope that he doesn't break that thing." He couldn't believe how hard I was jumping. They had a fun time trying to get me to laugh too. On Saturday night they got to spend one-on-one time with me while Mommy and Daddy went out on a date. Just like Grandma predicted, they left for their date at 5:30 and they had already called to see what I was doing by 7:00. When they got home, they even had a treat for me.

I wish that I lived closer to Grandma and Grandpa, but with all of the pictures and videos Mommy and Daddy take of me, it makes it easier. They are very special.

1-21-08 Me and my buddy, Ian, from Daycare

This is my new buddy, Ian. His Mommy is Molly. I go to their house while Mommy and Daddy go to work. As Daddy said, "we couldn't have found a better person to care for Grayson other than our parents."

1-21-08 Way too long for an update

Wow! Time has sure flown. I can't believe that I haven't put a post on here since before Christmas. Well, let me try to update you.


We spent half of my first Christmas in Lincoln with Grandma Johnson and Grandpa Johnson and the other half in Atkinson with Grandma and Grandpa Dunn. I got to see all of my aunts, uncles, and cousins. It was sure a lot of fun. I got lots of fun things. I feel so blessed to be so loved. I got clothes, toys, a portable DVD player (which was great for the road trip), Baby Einstein DVDs, and money for my college fund. Whew! That is a lot of stuff. While I was on my trip though, I didn't feel very well. I didn't want to eat but now we think that it may have been my acid reflux. We are not sure. Mommy and Daddy took me to the doctor and they said that it might have been a virus too.



I think one of the best things that happened was that my cousin Carter got out of the hospital in Omaha just in time for Christmas. He was there for nine days after he got some sort of bug and got really, really dehydrated. I was really scared because he was really sick. But, with lots of prayers and his great doctors he is much much better.

Since we got back from our trip to Nebraska, I had a great New Year's with Mommy and Daddy. It was cold outside so we just stayed home and cuddled.

On January 2nd, Mommy went back to work. She cried that day, but it was okay because I am getting great care at Molly's house. I really like going there. I have made some new friends (Ian, Ashlyn, and Bode). On my first day there, Ashlyn (2 years) even gave me a kiss and said "like you."

I also turned 4 months old since my last post. This month I can now hold my head up really good, I rolled over once (but haven't again--I haven't spent a whole lot of time with "tummy time" though because of my acid reflux), I make rasberries with my mouth, coo and make all kinds of sounds (my favorite being the high pitched squeel). I also jump a lot in the jumperoo that Sharon (Mommy's friend) is letting us borrow.

I am going to post a couple of update pictures and a video for your viewing. I am sure that I have missed a lot of my happenings, but I will try to get better at my posts. Sorry for the long delay.
