October 29, 2014

Dear Grayson, You are a beautiful little human and I am bewildered by how quickly time is passing. Do I write that in every letter? You look more and more like a little boy. You take steps while holding onto furniture. It started at Noni’s house over the course of Uncle B’s birthday weekend. You […]

Dear Grayson, You have turned into a big boy in front of my eyes. Your top two teeth came in, changing your smile. Your eyes glisten with curiosity. You pull away from me and reach for the ground. But once your feet hit you still call out, reaching for the safety of my arms and […]

{dear grayson} you are 7 months old

July 16, 2014

Dear baby boy, You are officially mobile. You’ve got your army crawl down, sometimes you even pop up to your knees. To my surprise, this milestone has increased your frustration. You are so close to being able to roam free, you can taste it. You can sit-up like a pro, but getting from crawling to […]

Dear baby boy, Smiles and laughter have filled this month. I love it. You started the month rolling from your back to your tummy. Now you flip back and forth and shuffle along the floor.

Dear baby boy, My favorite part of this month has been the singing. You started one day, sitting at the table while Jenny and I sang together. You just chimed in, letting out one long note after another. You grabbed your first toy, taking Sophie by the legs. You enjoy sitting in your Bumbo. We […]

March 14, 2014

Dear baby boy, You started this month off smiling a little and then a lot. You gurgle and giggle when your cheeks are tickled. We go back and forth, carrying on conversations of goos and gaas. You’ve found your fingers and occasionally try to fit your entire fist into your mouth. The changing table is […]

Dear baby boy, It has been a big month, a roller coaster of sleepless nights and great joys. You are looking around and alert. The sweetest gurgles and coos escape from your little lips. You really seem to be communicating. My favorite thing to do is dance with you around the living room as the […]

Dear baby boy, You are one month old. You have started opening your eyes, looking out at the world. You love to watch things move or to stare at lights or an open window. If I’m lucky, you look right at me. You now make lots of different sounds. I have a favorite, it is […]
