Travelin' Man

You are becoming a world traveler! Well just really the state of Tennessee, but it's a start! This past weekend your Daddy's birthday celebration continued with a trip to Pickwick! Daddy's whole family was there, you got to hang out with KK, Grandaddy, Uncle Lee, Aunt Leigh (or Lolly as we are trying out, we thought Leigh Haley might be too hard to say!)and your cousin Ryan! And boy did you and Ryan have fun! You think he is hilarious!! He likes to tickle your toes and smile at you and you just eat it up! Grandaddy took some great pictures of the two of you together. I can't wait for you to get a bit older so you guys can really play hard together! Who knows what sort of mischief you two may get into! Here are some of my favorite Grant and Ryan shots!







Ryan even introduced you to his favorite movie, Finding Nemo! You wore your shark jammies in honor of it! (never too young to coordinate events with outfits!) The weather was absolutely perfect and you had a great time strolling with Mommy in your stroller down by the water to see all the boats! There was a perfect spot for us to swing on a swing together and watch the boats sail by, you even saw your very first sailboat! Mommy had so much fun swinging and talking with you! You have become quite the chatter with Mommy and I heart it!!

And you went to your very first museum!! Now as you will learn Mommy and Daddy heart history and museums! Better get used to the History Channel now my friend! KK and Grandaddy took us to a really cool Civil War Interpretive Center (that's fancy for a new museum with lots of abstract exhibits) you learned all about the battle at Shiloh and the fight for the control of the railroad in Mississippi. It was very interesting and just the beginning of fun filled history themed excursions!

All in all you had a wonderful time hanging out with your KK and Grandaddy (and of course you took a great nap on KK's lap! You never turn down a lap to nap on!) You did all your tricks for them: talking, laughing, smiling, and sticking out your tongue! We will all be together soon for Ryan's big birthday party!!
