Go Cowboys!!! Homecoming 2009

The Grant kids and their mama love the Cowboys! Go Pokes!

Brenley May - random pic's of her

Brenley got a new baby stroller courtesy of her Daddy. She loves it. It is just her size. She likes to push her "babies" around in it, which consist of a stuffed puppy and bear.

She also had a tough week at school with her face/cheek/eye catching a corner of a table at school as she fell into it. Her first official shiner. Still cute though..........

Carter - my youngest nephew

The kids and I went down to Stillwater last weekend to visit my family. We got to play with Carter Lee, who just turned 9 months old. I think he is just the most handsome little boy! Ugh! Had to post this pic of him!

And here is another nephew Brady (Carter's big bro) posing for the camera. Funny boy. Goodness he looks like my brother!

And final pic is the cute cousins playing together. ......

Our Character Nominee of the Week

for Ms. Hermanson and Ms. Morgan's first grade classroom at Vermillion Primary School is Mr. Beau Charles Grant. "Beau is a respectful boy and a great worker" said the teachers that nominated him.

On Wednesday of his "Character" week he ate lunch with the assistant principal, Ms. Woodward. Then he received a certificate, Wendy's coupon, and Zipper pull for his backpack.

Go Beau! We are proud of you!

Brian turns 34 - finally!

Well, the old man is finally as old as his ole lady. Happy Birthday, honey! We love you!

Brenley May - 20 months

Where do I start with this one? She is so funny. Let's see.......her hair is so pretty and long and blond and now she has started to push it out of her eyes when it gets in the way. Such a Diva! She is still not much of an eater, unless there is some nutritional value in Wendy's chocolate frosty's.

She knows pretty much all of her body parts. Our favorite one for her to say and point to is "Elbow." She knows a lot of animal sounds and motions. Really can't pick a favorite there, but she does a mean elephant and penguin waddle.

She likes Elmo, and says it quite well. She now she says, "Ah man" when she drops something. She loves babies - any kind - dolls or real ones. And she loves to be sung too. Her favorite is The B-I-B-L-E, where she shouts "Bible" after it is over. "Deep and Wide" is another favorite because of the motions. Mind you, she is learning these at school, but we keep them going at home. Calms a crying baby so quickly!

She really likes books, probably her favorite "toy" if you will. And instead of wanting to color with crayons, she has taken a liking to markers - of course.

She LOVES her brother. And she loves pointing at the family pictures we have in the hallway of our extended family. She says "Me Ma" and "Pa Pa" and "baby" (that is for Carter and Luke). She is just a lovable little lady and we just really love her so much!

She is getting so big. I can't even believe it sometimes. She just struts into her classroom every morning and gives us a MMMMWWWWAAAAHHHH kiss and a "Bye Bye" in the sweetest voice you have ever heard. She drinks from a cup. Goes to bed so well at night. I know the time will come when all that will be a fight, but right now, we just soak it all in and count our blessings.

Momentary Pause

I've got a lot of great posts, but am waiting on our computer to come back (it's getting all "cleaned" up and maintenanced) so I can download pictures. But here is what is upcoming on the ole blogspot.com....

1. Our Outstanding Character of the week Nominee....Beau Grant
2. Our 20 month old, Brenley May Grant (sweet pea, she is)
3. Daddy's birthday

Stay tuned......early next week I am hoping. Got some good pic's to download. And I suppose I could write the blog without the pictures, but they give me so much inspiration........especially when you see the smile on the 20 month old sweet pea.
