- Mama going back to work
- Grady's 4th month shots
- A tarantula in the pool
What an action packed week! I made it through the first week of school (although there were many tears- mine not his). It was difficult, but everyday has been getting easier. It's hard not to rush right out at 2:15 and come home to see my baby! I've definitely been getting home much earlier than I used to. Luckily I have a really nice class... let's hope they stay that way.
Derek and Grady however had a great week. They have a good time together. Grady still thinks his daddy is just the funniest guy ever. I think he's a great stay-at-home dad. We had some yummy home-cooked meals this week, and it's not so bad leaving the G-man here in the morning with his daddy....I'm sure we'll have more tears (mine, not his) in another week when I have to drop him off at the babysitter's in the morning! Now if I could just teach Derek to clean, we'd be all set! :)
Grady also had his 4th month check-up (which included a few shots), sad. Here's the stats:
weight: 14 lbs. 11 oz. (50th percentile)
length: 26 inches (90th percentile)
He continues to shoot up...he's gonna be tall and skinny like his daddy I think! The doc says he's looking great, and he was really a good sport with those shots. It hurts my heart to hear those cries, but he was OK a few short minutes later. He's a tough guy!
Here's the highlights of the week:
4months old with his birthday monkey! 
Loving his "exersaucer!"
Loving his "exersaucer!"
Spending some time in the pool. He's a natural! 
Little Ducky with his Aunt Mandy
The beautiful "Spanish Tortilla" Derek made us for dinner. 
What da heck is that in the pool???? 
A tarantula!!! And although it looks dead....it wasn't! It would not die. Derek flung it up the hill after an hour or so of us debating what to do with it. That means it's still alive out there somewhere....
Grady's become quite the thumb-sucker! Look at that cute pouty face!

Melissa he's such a cutie pit...good job to you two!! He's sitting up in the bumbo so well. I shower Tyler how that looks so he can learn ;) the exersaucer gives me a 2 hr break during the day (in 2-3 intervals). Hopefully Grady loves his just as much. He's growing like a weed, such a great 4 mo update. I can relate to your feelings about the tranchula, I found a scorpion in our garage!! Luckily it was dead but it wasn't far from the entrance to our house ;(
First off...congrats on getting through the first week back. I'm sure it was tough, but you did it! And the whole tarantula thing...that's just beyond disgusting! Are you sure you guys didn't move into the Amazon?! Glad to see all is well nevertheless. Miss you guys!
I've been thinking about you all week. Glad to hear everyone survived. Hoping you have less tears this week. I would freak out if i found that spider. DISGUSTING! Miss you guys.
Oh and I'd love to get the spanish tortilla recipe. Looks yummy.
