Last Midwife Visit

I can't believe 6 1/2 weeks has gone by already! Yesterday was our last midwife visit. It consisted of weighing, measuring and general checking out. Not to mention Christy trying to convince me that we should have more kids! Grady will be enough:) Even if she says she will keep the next one:p We plan to love him lots and lots!

9lb 14oz, 38 cm head, 54 cm long. What a growing boy!

Grady steals Christy's heart.

Baby + Dogs

Grady and Dog

Rebar gets jealous of new dog and decides to join the photo shoot.

Grandma Linda decides Mardi must be included and plops her in. Grady had lots of smiles while
sitting with this stuffed so either he liked it or had gas:D

On the Move

Me thinks Grady may be an early crawler. As you can see from the photos below he started on the pillow with his feet at the far end and his tummy where the arrow is. When I got back upstairs he was on the bed (thankgoodness! Luckily he moved himself towards the middle and not the edge. We are definitely going to have to watch him closely now!) Looks like the journey tired him out!

The Zoo

Not often you go the zoo and encounter creatures not in cages. Here is a garter snake crossing the path in the Canadian Wild.
Grandma Linda and the Mountain Goat.

Baby Grady and Baby Giraffe.
