I can't believe Thanksgiving is almost here, then Grant's 5th (WOW!) birthday, then Christmas, then the new baby! Seriously #3 will be here before you know it! I'm also taking suggestions on names- since we have ZERO.
As many of you know Grant has some language delays- one of which he has had trouble asking & answering 'why' questions. Well, it seems we have finally turned that corner. Last Sunday night we were sitting around the kitchen table and I was musing that I need to go to the grocery store. Next thing Grant asks "why do you need to go the grocery store?". Chris & I just looked at each other- we were amazed that he asked a why question and in an appropriate context. And ever since then he has been full of why questions. Kendal has taken to answering his questions which is just wonderful to see.
We had our pictures taken at the mall with Cousin Abby last week and then had quite an adventure afterwards. As we were leaving the mall we had to ride the escalator down to get to the right level. As we approached the bottom of the escalator, the escalator quickly grabbed Grant’s shoe. I yanked him out right away, saving the foot but obviously not the shoe. I’m amazed Grant has all his toes & zero scratches. I had heard about this happening, but always thought of it as a bit of an 'urban legend'. Apparently not.
