Nitty Gritty on Grant - Month 1

Only 4 weeks have gone by but we have learned so much about you.  We could never express the gratefulness we feel for God giving us you.  We pray for you and hope we are able to raise you well.  You have already brought us so many laughs and fun memories.  We really like being your mom and pop.

A few things that we or others have noticed about you...

When the Dr. pulled you out of mommy he said you look like a "little toddler" 
You have big hands and some think you will be a good piano player
You are almost the length of 2 footlong Subway sandwiches.  Our guess is you will be tall.  Your name Grant means "a great man; tall"
Your hair color is a bit deceiving.  It is almost like you are a chameleon.  Is it red, or blonde, or brown or strawberry blonde???
Dark blue is your eye color but mommy thinks it will change to brown or hazel
Your skin is beautiful.  You have a very nice pink tone which turns very red when you are upset.
Big feet and long toes like daddy (tree frog toes is what Gramie calls them)
Very serious - you furrow your brow at us quite often
You have tracked very well with your eyes since day one
Chubby cheeks
Many people say you look like daddy
You rolled over in your first week (back to tummy) then you did it again your forth week
You are a multiple sneezer
You really like to grunt sometimes :)
Umbilical cord stump fell off at 3 weeks and 3 days old 
Perfectly shaped head which looks super cute in hats
You like to ponder and stare, we like to imagine what you are thinking
Great first well baby check
When it is time to eat you are ready to eat!  Just like mom and dad you love you some grub
You have just started to smile when you are fading off to sleep 
Daddy calls you Houdini cause you bust out of your swaddle
