Flying through the Air

Greyson isn't a delicate child. He likes to play and play rough. Two of his favorite things to do it throw himself backward and fly through the air and laugh. He's quite the little man.

Greyson at 8 Months!

So this is very late coming, but Greyson is 8 months! He loves to show us touchdown all the time! He also is my right hand man when I'm working out in the morning. Things sure have changed quite a bit.
The video is also just a look at our view. It sure is beautiful!

A Nice Walk

Here are a few pictures from a recent walk. Greyson is really starting to enjoy being out and about!

Study Study and Study some More!

Well Stephen's classes are slowly coming to an end. Two weekends ago he took his comprehensive examine. It was a very long weekend for him. There were 9 questions that had to be answered in 2 to 3 pages and he had from Friday evening until Sunday evening to complete it. On top of that the previous week he had class on Monday and Wednesday and taught a class on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. The week following his exam he had the same schedule.
All three of us will be very happy when December comes and he graduates!

Greyson is 8 Months!

There is never a dull moment with Greyson, well maybe when he's sleeping. It's been getting much colder up here so getting all bundled up to go to the office is quite the undertaking. I'm trying to put him in the stroller and that seems to be working well. One day on our short walk to work Greyson fell asleep, so I carried the big stroller up all the stairs and let him sleep in my office.

He also voted for the first time last week. He was very interested in the voting process and while I was voting insisted on looking out from the booth sheet that covered us. So the first view everyone got when they walked into the voting area was my son's little smiling face.

Eating is always an interesting event. I have quit trying to keep things clean. I just let him go for it and between the dogs and clorox wipes we take care of the mess pretty fast.

Greyson's First Halloween

Well it was Greyson's first Halloween and of course dressing him up was so much fun! Also one of my after school program teacher's surprised me and dressed up like me and I found her sitting on my ball in the office. She had a makeshift wrap that was holding a teddy bear.
The Friday before Halloween we enjoyed going to a Harvest Party at church. Greyson wore a Tigger outfit that had been given to him. He bounces a lot so we thought, hey why not make him a Tigger. For Halloween actually he wore a one of a kind pumpkin. It was fun to set him up in front of the house, he's the best looking pumpkin I've ever seen.

October

October has been a bit of a blur for us. Stephen has been extremely busy with work, but also his college classes have been very consuming as well. He has been working on his research proposal and next weekend he will be taking his comprehensive exam. This is a three day test with a great deal of research and writing involved. We are both extremely excited for December and Stephen having his masters completed.

The first two weeks of October I also facilitated two Love & Logic classes. It was a lot of work, but extremely encouraging. The team at KBM got together, prepared supper, provided childcare and made a great evening for our preschool and after school parents. I have realized that trying to do my job with Greyson everyday is extremely challenging, but am amazed at how great he does.

Greyson is growing up way to fast too. He loves trying to walk and crawl and we have a great time playing with him. He's a very happy little guy!
