Today I would like you to introduce you to our second grandson. His name is Grant. He was a full term baby. He was the opposite of Gavan. Gavan couldn’t wait to get into this world and came 13 weeks early. Grant on the other hand was in no hurry to make his appearance. He went passed his due date. Grant is now 13 ½ months old. On Memorial Day weekend he started walking. How time flies.
Our daughter and son-in-law marvel at how fast this little guy has grown. He is now only about three pounds lighter then his bigger brother. Since Gavan was a preemie he did not gain weight as quickly. Grant out grows his clothes very quickly and now wears the same size as his bigger brother. It seems like we can’t keep his belly full, he constantly wants to eat.
He has the most adorable smile. And those big brown eyes will melt your heart. They sure have melted Mama’s heart. Let me show you a photo of him so you can see for yourself.
When he was eleven months old he started making these faces. Every time someone would say something to him he would make this face. It was hilarious, but he doesn’t do that anymore. He has moved on to doing other funny things. It is such a joy to watch them change and how quickly they change.
The other day we took the boys to a local park that has a splash pad and a train for children to ride. Grant had no problem playing in the fountains. We were so surprised because he wants nothing to do with the kiddy pool that they have in their back yard. Grant even was putting his face in the water. Gavan on the other hand was only interested in the train. So after a couple of hours of the splash pad we packed up and took them for a train ride. Not once, but twice. They really enjoyed their time.
I never cease to be amazed at the new things they do everyday. Being a grandma is even better then I ever expected it to be. Every kiss and huge they give me is so precious. What an amazing blessing!
