Visit with Gran

Gran and Ford

Ford is named after Gran's late husband, Bedford who went by Bet. I know Gran feels honored to have a youngster named after the one person she loved most. This picture will always be so special.

Ford the Last Month

 

I am sure I have said this before but I not only keep this blog up for my friends and family to keep up with our boring lives but also for myself. I want to be able to look back and remember as much as possible about raising these two that have been gifted to me and so they can look back on memories from their childhood. So sometimes the posts are pretty boring like this one but I want to include it for Ford one day is his blog book that I make once a year. So pardon all the cuteness in these pictures.:)

 

Someone has found a new "toy". Sometimes if he's cranky I just lay him on his back and make sure he has a foot to gnaw on and he's all better.:)

Not so sure about the whole glow worm thing...

 

This is my view most afternoons after nap time. Love those chunky thighs.

 

Can you ever get enough of a grinning baby with no teeth?

 

This is one happy boy.

Poopy in the Potty

I'm not sure if this is a common thing among children but we have really had some hurdles to jump to get Olivia to go #2 in the potty. We had been promising her for quite some time that if she was successful then we would get her a Winnie the Pooh (she is in LOVE with him right now). Well, we are not 100% there yet but she did go and we did have to oblige. So, this is Pooh Bear having supper with us one night. He was a pretty good guest.:)

Weight Comparison

Oh my...there is such a difference in the size of my children. The first picture is Olivia at about 3 months old and the second picture is Ford at about 4 months old. I know Ford is about a month older than Olivia in these pictures but he looks like he could eat her for lunch. It's so funny to me how different they are in some ways but just alike in others. They are both uniquely and wonderfully made and I love them with all my heart.

(please disregard how awful the swing looks, we've gotten our money out of it)
